Sauber, super Lage und freundliches Personal
Pros:

Sehr gute Lage, super freundliches Personal und die Lage ist bestens (direkt im Zentrum). Es ist alles sauber und ordentlich im Zimmer.

Cons:

Man sollte bedenken, dass die Zimmer im unteren Bereich keine Fenster haben, sondern über der Tür offen für Frischlift sind. Etwas ungewöhnlich, wenn man dann alles hören kann.

Excelente ubicación y relación calidad precio.
Pros:

La ubicación es Excelente. El precio es realmente accesible para un viajero mochilero como uno que busca algo céntrico con transporte público realmente cercano y rápido.

Cons:

Las habitaciones al ser de material liviano permiten que se pase todo el ruido de las habitaciones vecinas y si hay vecinos escandalosos (como en nuestro caso) que hablen o hasta hagan ruido tarde no dejan descansar bien, Las cortinas que se usan dejan pasar la luz del exterior entonces no se descansa cómodo.

Pros:

Location is excellent, right in the center. They let me leave my suitcase for my trip to Galapagos which I found super helpful! The staff is lovely!

Cons:

I was unlucky to stay in a room where there was terrible smell of sewage. It was unbearable and it was impossible to stay in the room. I honestly don't think this room should be rented for guests.
The place is loud so prepare your earplugs.

Pros:

The hostel is right in the middle of historic Quito. Everything is walkable, including spots to eat, sights, and markets. The staff is really helpful and clued in. Mario even remembered my name. The place gets cleaned daily. If you're vegan like me and need to cook, there’s a small, well-equipped kitchen. The common area is comfy. My room was cozy, on the third floor with a shared bathroom. They also offer airport transfers.

Cons:

Nothing
