The location was the perfect ending from a 12-day birding/outdoor adventuring experience. Everyone was very helpful and there were vegan options on the restaurant menu! Shuttle service to the airport was prompt and a huge convenience. I would stay here again.

Nice building clean apt. It would have been nice if there were shades on the kitchen windows or a curtain between the bedroom and kitchen. The bed frame is too large for the space and makes it difficult to move around in the bedroom.

Mostly felt safe. Great Metropolitano hospital treated my partner for injuries. Lots of taxis. Some turn off meters late at night and try to overcharge. Nice national museum.

Quito was a great place to visit. We liked the customer service experience as they did not make us feel like they were doing us a favor for doing their job, like we have experienced in other countries. We look forward to returning.
