Exceptional place to stay with modern, comfortable rooms with views.
Pros:

This is an exceptional hotel to stay at in Aeroquipa, as it is well located in historic district and is very modern, comfortable, clean, and with great views of the city and the volocanos surrounding the town. The bed and pillows were very comfy, and the breakfast was very good. The staff were amongst the best I have experienced in my travels in South America - extremely helpful.

Cons:

There is a restaurant opposite which was open until late, which was a bit noisy as we went to sleep early in th evening, but overall the sound proofing in the room was pretty good and it didn’t bother us too much.

Estancia en el hotel Fundador
Pros:

La ubicación es cerca de la plaza de armas de la ciudad sin necesidad de usar transporte para ir hasta allá.

Cons:

La cama era pequeña para dos personas, en el segundo día de estancia no me pusieron papel higiénico, jabón ni shampoo (tuve que pedirlos en la recepción)
También me pusieron en el primer piso y no podía abrir la ventana por temor a que alguien se meta a la habitación.

Excelente
Pros:

Todo excelente. Conocí el lugar hace 2 años y es una alegría enorme ver cómo no solo mantienen la calidad sino que han mejorado algo que ya estaba super bien.

Cons:

El único detalle es la señal de wi fi, ya que es algo intermitente. Mejorando eso ya sería perfecto.

Nice.
Pros:

The breakfast was passable, and the location was particularly good. This morning, you could still see the volcano from the fifth floor—absolutely splendid.

Cons:

It would be even better if disposable toothbrushes, slippers and razors could be provided.
