Duration: 5 nights (Sun-Fri) Travelers: 1 Located at the Plaza Foch, access to restaurants and nightlife was a one street away. Also, most all tours have a pickup point here at Plaza Foch making it very convenient. I highly recommend knowing Spanish or know how to use a translator really well. The entire staff speaks only Spanish with very few English words. Glad I knew survival Spanish to get me around. lol. Overall the staff is great, friendly, and very patient with me as I sometimes had to open Google translate for the "big" words. A+ I reserved a single room w/ private bath versus the Hostel shared BRs. My room was in the back downstairs. It had had 3 single beds. OMG, the comforter was crazy thick and warm. There was a 32 LCD TV w/ DirectTV (Spanish only ch), large closets. Yes the entire property is old so expect aged furnishing. But decent for the price. The bathroom was fully functional. Though there was mold building up on the ceiling (they had this odd popcorn style texture). Nonetheless the it was clean, shower water pressure was good and decently hot. No toiletries, but a store is right next door. Cheap too. I would stay again if there. Location and great people.

Good location if you like clubbing till 2am
Initially not bad, got entire top floor basically, beds comfy, room amenities pretty good. But very noisy. 2nd night couldn't sleep because pounding base was shaking whole room. Made worked by giant crack and 1 inch hole in window. At midnight asked to be moved to new room, which was on 1st floor, above a bar, music went till 12:30 so a little better than 2. Got food poisoning and had to stay in bed a whole day, this is when things got really bad. Construction right outside my window, guy litteraly pounding the wall with a hammer. Had to go out twice and tell reception to do something, and had to wait 20 min for them to track down owner, then from 6 -12:30 very loud karaoke from bar 1 floor below. The owner Felipe is curt, rude and dosn't seem to care about his guests well being only money (on the 1st night I turned up with a fellow traveller whom he wanted to charge $23 to take one of the 3 beds I had on my room for 1 night when I paid $55 for 3 even though hotel wasn't fully booked) Manager Miriam seems disengaged and even put out when having to care for guests, prioritizing phone calls and computer work over the guests that are physically in front of her. The only decent member of staff is the young guy Alejandro. Unless yout came to Quito to drink and party all night in Gringolandis area, don'the stay here. You will not get a good night's sleep and it will impact the activities you want to do in the city. If I had known more I would have never stayed here.

In the middle of the party
It was slightly noisy, given that it was by all the bars and a busy Plaza Foch. But the staff's hospitality, cleanliness and privacy of my room more than made up for any inconvenience. I would stay there again if I travel to Quito again.

Close to all bars and restaurants
Very bad. bathroom leaks. Bad smell. There is no elevator. When I checked in, the manager told me that I have to pay all the taxes. I told her that everything has been paid. She told me, she will get back with a resolution. The room didn't have a phone. The noise coming from the bars and clubs is terrible.
