Pros:

Super bel hostel avec une vue incroyable sur Otavalo. Chambre super propre et lit confortable. Il y a possibilité de cuisiner à l'hostel, avec cuisinette et réfrigérateur. Hector a été un hôte très attentionné et accommodant. Toujours souriant, il démontre un réel vouloir de rendre le séjour des plus confortable. Nous recommandons grandement. Très bon rapport\qualité prix.

Il y a une petite marche de 15- 18 min pour se rendre au centre. Ce qui nous arrangeait, car on préfère le calme au brouhaha du centre
Taxi très accessible pour 1,50$ d'un peu partout à Otavalo.

The view is amazing, there is a well-stocked kitchen available if you bring your own food
Pros:

Quiet (except for the roosters)

Cons:

The steps up to the property are steep but you can walk up the steep driveway instead, and then there are only a few steps.

Good
Pros:

Hector was very helpful, brought me to the bus terminal. There is a common kitchen, but poor equiped. The view from the hostel is very nice.

Cons:

My room and toilet wasn't clean when I received it. Walking barfoot over the floor my feet were black. The toilet seat had brown dots. After mentioning it Hector cleaned it next day, but I had to use it 1 day as it was.
The outside gate is so tricky to open with the key, I didn't manage to get in or out without any help which isn't handy when nobody is there to help.
The picture looks better then the room in reality.

Grear value, great host, great location.
Pros:

Great value for money for an en-suite room in a great location overlooking Otavalo. The host Hector couldn’t do enough for us. Not luxury but has everything that you need for your stay.

Cons:

No breakfast option though there is a shared kitchen should you wish to make your own.
