Fijn verblijf met grote tuin en bubbelbad.
Pros:

Aan de rand van het dorpje gelegen ruim hostel. Wij kregen een andere erg mooie kamer ivm feest dat er gegeven werd. Heel prettig! Ontbijt en eten prima. Erg aardige, actieve en zeer betrokken gastheer, die er alles aan doet om je verblijf leuk te maken. Er werden meteen tafel en stoeltjes buiten in de tuin gezet. Bagageopslag mogelijk. Heerlijk bubbelbad!

Cons:

De sfeer in de eetruimte zou wat vrolijker mogen. Ziet er wat bruin en somber uit. Sauna was niet helemaal in orde maar daar wordt nog aan gewerkt.

Estancia cómoda y relajante
Pros:

Familia acogedora, lugar precioso 3 minutos del parque central y 30 segundos de un parque infantil para ellos a quienes les gusta la calistenia/ parkour igual que piscina/ spa. El spa es realmente algo especial a precio muy bueno, lo disfrute inmenso. Comida fresca y nativa. La cama con colchón ortopédico y 4 mantas- lo mejor que he experimentado en Ecuador. Wifi bueno para trabajar. Gracias Mari y Jhon!

Relaxing stay before our trek
Pros:

Good food, comfortable bed, friendly informative staff. A wonderful family runs the hostal. 3 brothers have been working hard on improvements. There is a pool/hot tub/sauna that you can enjoy ($3 fee). They have a wood burning outdoor oven and we tried some freshly made bread that was incredible. Start off your trek by enjoying this wonderful hostal

Cons:

Nada
