I absolutely loved staying in the hostel, Fernanda is a lovely person and the place is beautiful. I spend a great time at the hostel. The kitchen is also very good, with a great view of the city and there's a lot of spaces to chill at the hostel. I recommend a lot the experience. I hope I can come back to Quito and spend some more time here. <3

I had a nice experience, the hostel has a perfect location right in the heart of the historical center so it's quite easy to walk to all the interesting areas, the hostel is usually perfect and clean, all in the best conditions possible, the dorm is also quite nice and warm (hard to say in a cold city like Quito) sometimes your shift may be confusing but Fher is always up to clear things and explain in detail. It's not a party hostel, not a lot of backpackers either, so if you're a lot into socializing, you may find it boring sometimes, not a lot of activities to get involved either.

Mi Experiencia en el hostel fue Excelente. La amabilidad y buena comunicación con Fernanda fue genial y gracias a ello me sentí como en casa. Estoy muy agradecido por todo lo vivido aquí, siempre tendré en cuenta este lugar para cuando vuelva a Quitó, doña Lucía tuvo una atención muy agradable para conmigo, gran persona y muy atenta. Recomiendo este lugar para quien guste conocer el centro histórico u otros lugares patrimoniales de esta gran ciudad. Los horarios y las comidas se cumplieron a la perfección ✨️ 👌 Muchas gracias el hostel
