An incredible historic hotel in the walkable historic center of Quito. The staff were friendly and helpful. They provided great advice and recommendations. They helped set up transportation to the airport. It felt safe and secure and had wonderful access to the roof to see the skyline.

My wife and I stayed four days in an inside room on the second floor street side. The room was large and had very high windows covered with some material to block vision. The hallway was very old hardwood floor and everytime someone walked past the room in addition to their foosteps there was an accompanying sound which I atribute to the loose floorboards stretching. The breakfast was one serving each of diced eggs, bread, fruit and a beverage. After checking in we discovered that the hotel had several upstairs rooms offering panoramic views of Quito. The desk clerk explained that they were all reserved and only the inside rooms were available. My opinion is that the hotel is an ok place and that it would be best to reserve an upstairs room with a view.

A rather charmingly designed old colonial, Spanish style accommodation with responsible, attentive, front desk, shuttle and breakfast service. The roof top view after climbing several small flights of stairs was a thrill. Staying in any of the courtyard area rooms, however, is problematic to say the least for anyone wishing a good night of sleep. When booking this hotel, guests should specifically ask for any of the upper or alternate rooms and insist they avoid the courtyard rooms. We were in a courtyard room that, like others, did not even have a solid barrier against light or sound, just a thin plastic window covering that transmitted all kinds of unwanted light and noise, from loud courtyard visiting guests to the front desk phone ringing throughout the night. Sleep was at a minimum. Unfortunately, we leave Quito far more tired than we should have.

Such a wonderful place. Just around the corner is Niza cafe - a Quito breakfast staple. What we struggled with was the fact that sound travels, we could hear every conversation of all the guests. Also, if you are there for business, the WiFi signal does not reach the bedrooms - I didn’t mind that.

Very friendly, great location!

All the staff were exceptional. Breakfast was limited but okay. I requested a room with a view, but didn’t realize it was 6 floors up—with no elevator! Do I asked for a lower-level room and got one on the third floor. The next night I moved to a lower floor, however, it was very noisy. Good thing I had my ear plugs. The location is fantastic!

The Good - location, location, location, In the heart of central Quito with a nice grocery store two doors up the street and a decent one across the street, and plenty of good restaurants close by, Room was spacious, had a mini-fridge, an outside patio area, and a central courtyard with seats, tables, sofas and such. The Bad - Not for mobility impaired as there is no elevator. The Ugly - no parking and street parking is often unavailable. If uou want a Hilton or Hyatt type hotel, you will not like the hotel. But, if you want kind of a funky, relaxed, cool experience, you will like it.

The pics posted by Expedia reflect what the hotel looks like. It is an amazing property with great location if you want to be the Colonial or Historic part of Quito but the hotel doesn’t offer any outlets to eat or bar to drink, the room where I stayed at is was super small, they provided with an old, enfasis on the OLD towel, a very very very small soup and that was it. The bed was terrible, noisy and the mattress hard as a rock! I STAYED AT ROOM 23, don’t request or stay on that room. Staff… I don’t even know what to say… I don’t think that I’d like to stay there again

Perfect location in the historic old town. So quaint and beautiful and we felt it was a good value for the money. Went all the way to the top observation platform and flew my drone capturing the rolling majesty of Quito. You can walk to many attractions and lots of food options nearby. I want to stay again.

There is ONE room in the hotel that is like the room shown in pictures. The rest of the rooms have badly worn furniture, very old bedspreads that have faded (couldn’t tell if they’d been washed or not), towels that were shredding due to overuse and the bathrooms are ancient with shower heads that spray random spots of water. For breakers every morning you get 2 eggs (scrambled or fried) with fruit and cold bread rolls. The menu NEVER changes. We were supposed to stay here another 3 nights but cancelled and found a better hotel. At the very least, don’t pay before you get there so that you can cancel if you’re unhappy with your room. I took pictures of the room to share with my review but I don’t see anyplace to add them.

The staff of this location are exceptional. There was delicious made to order breakfast every morning. We relied heavily on the front desk staff since we speak little Spanish. They recommended lunch spots, called us taxis, and helped at every opportunity. The hotel is older but very clean. The front door is locked at all times and the front desk buzz you in and out. This added security helped us to feel safe at all times. I would definitely stay there again and recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a worry free stay.

We loved our stay here. The staff was kind and friendly, even though we arrived very late at night (after 2AM). The beds were very comfortable, and the breakfast was ample. The location was also convenient for walking to the Historic Center. And the view from the rooftop was thrilling! We could see Cotopaxi in the distance. We would absolutely stay here again.
