    Flavors of Ecuador with great service

    The good breakfast was a highlight, with made-to-order dishes like omelets and local specialties. The staff was cute, our stay was comfortable and enjoyable.

    The bathroom was quite small, which might not be ideal for everyone. The location and service more than made up for it.

    Couples looking for comfort

    The lobby was very comfortable with an enormous couch to chill on after a long day! Plus the staff was helpful, always there when needed.

    It wasn't exactly cheap, but decent enough for what you get.

    delicious breakfast
    small bathroom

    Excellent location in the historic district made exploring the town easy. The room felt spacious and clean with modern furnishings. I appreciated the helpful English-speaking staff throughout my stay. Breakfast offered a delicious array of local specialties, including made-to-order omelets, which I really enjoyed. The bathroom was quite small, and I wished for a bit more variety in protein options for breakfast. It had a cozy ambiance, but the tight bathroom setup was a bit inconvenient. Still, the value for the price was notable and I'd consider returning.
