Más o Menos
Pros:

Está en una zona céntrica, por lo que está cerca de todo. El hotel cumple con el objetivo de vender una experiencia rica culturalmente.

Cons:

Demasiada claridad, no hay cortinas oscuras. Se escuchan los ruidos de los demás hospedados. Las camas estaban duras.

Pros:

Excellent location and rooftop viewpoint of the city. Nice leafy historic building.

Cons:

Rooms and breakfast was a bit basic, but just about did the job and made it quite adventurous. Rooms were very cold and hot water for showers was very hit and miss.

Great stay in the heart of Quito
Pros:

San Francisco de Quito exceeded all my expectations. Most charming hotel with a beautiful shady courtyard, full of tropical plants. Fantastic location right in the middle of Centro Historico, with all main sites within few minutes’ walk. Walls hang with some religious antique paintings.
If you can ask for room #8 – great, spacious room overlooking the corner of Sucre and Guayaquil (albeit a bit noisy, so not great if you are a light sleeper).

Cons:

Wonderful reception staff – very helpful (although the night porter forgot the morning alarm call).
So – so breakfast (especially coffee), but there’s plenty of great cafes and pastelerias in the Old Town.
