The hotel is quaint and has an historic charm. The staff is helpful, welcoming and pleasant . There is a very nice breakfast in a nice space on the roof top. The hotel is on a busy square, so at least from our room it was a bit noisy. Then again part of the charm, here, is the old town location.

The property is centrally located in Quito. The staff provided excellent service. The establishment offers a rustic and charming ambiance, truly reflecting Ecuadorian culture. Please be advised that while there is no on-site parking, several parking lots are available nearby. We found the rates to be approximately $1 per hour and $5 for overnight parking. I would suggest this location for those who appreciate being within walking distance of various attractions.

This is an absolutely beautiful property, meticulously maintained, with loads of charm. Our room was huge and the view was wonderful. Breakfast was tasty, and you are within an easy walk of the historic plaza. What to know before you go... this is on a busy street, and we heard traffic all night long. Also, because the building is old, we could hear every footstep of the guests above us. Bring earplugs and everything else will be wonderful.

Great little hotel in the historic area of Quito. Very walkable and also close to a subway entrance (San Francisco) to get to other parts of the city. Staff was very friendly and helpful with recommendations. The arranged for an airport pick-up for us and also an early morning ride to the airport when we were leaving. Delicious breakfast included as well.
