Gloria and Hernan are wonderful hosts, it’s like staying with family. Gloria makes the most delicious breakfast with fresh juices and excellent coffee. Hernan will take you on a tour to the equator which was excellent, informative and fun.

Pros:

This is an excellent place to stay. Located in the centre, safe area, with lots of good bars and restaurants close at hand. The building is beautiful. Hernan and Gloria were very helpful and kind. They can arrange transport from the airport at a reasonable price and Hernan drove us to the bus station. Laundry through the hotel is expensive and so best to use the cheap laundrette five minutes walk away. It’s worth noting the name of the hotel is not displayed on the outside the building and so make sure you have the hotel address at hand when you first arrive.

Cons:

Nothing

A pleasant two night stay in a comfortable and quiet room.
Pros:

The location of the hotel near the old city is great. Restaurants and major sites can be easily reached by walking. (The restaurant which is two blocks away is excellent). The staff are helpful and the hotel feels very secure. It has a homely feel and is very clean.

Cons:

It would be good if there were hooks to hang things/clothes in the bathroom and bedroom.

Can't find better hosts!
Pros:

Managers are first
class.Responded immediately to requests and offered laundry service, an excellent full day tour of city, equator and volcano, and the long ride to airport for very reasonable costs. Ecellent and varied breakfasts.
Gave good recommendations for activities and restaurants. We walked safely to city center daily. Room and house are very nice.There are small shops and multiple restaurants on the street and a fabulous wood artisan.

Cons:

Only suggestions would be to automatically provide clean towels and empty trash bins every day or 2.

Hotel in guter Lage, hilfsbereite nette Betreiber, leider fehlende Möglichkeiten seine Sachen zu verstauen.
Pros:

Authentisches gutes Hotel mit netten und hilfsbereiten Betreibern in guter Lage.

Cons:

Von Außen gibt es an dem Gebäude keinen Hinweis auf das Hotel. Musste etwas suchen. In den Zimmern nur wenig Ablagemöglichkeiten und keine Möglichkeit Sachen aufzuhängen. Für eine Person OK, für 2 schlecht nicht zu Händeln.

Pros:

Herndon and Gloria were warm and friendly host. Starting each day with a delicious and nicely present breakfast. Herndon was so helpful and informative about things to do in Quito.

Cons:

Other than the bed there is no place to sit in the room a chair would be helpful. I didn't ask for one if I had I am sure Herndon or Gloria would had accommodate me.

Huéspedes encantadores
Pros:

La hospitalidad de los huéspedes es lo mejor. Nos sentimos cuidados y en casa, pero sobretodo no hay precio a como nos atendieron :).
Lo recomendamos mucho si NO conoces quito , e incluso si viajas desde el aeropuerto hay un servicio privado para llege la hotel.
La pareja de huéspedes estuvieron atentos de nuestra llegada desde el primer momento e incluso nos hicieron un tour por la. Mitad del mundo 🌎 y sitios relevantes de quito. También nos dieron muy buenos consejos!!

Cons:

Que se me olvidó un neceser y no. Pudimos cuadrar para envíamelo (pero asumo que se me olvidó a mí eso)
