There was a water fountain right outside my room so I heard running water all the time. I just unplugged it at night :-). I plugged it back in in the morning.

Large, clean, modern room. Large bed. Nice bathroom. Lots of common space. Good WiFi. The location is OK. There's nothing in the local area but it's a 15 minute walk to the tourist area. There's also a metro stop right outside.

Very friendly owner and staff. Could arrange an airport pickup and and late night check in, easy to extend my stay for a day. The terrace is beautiful and the rooms cozy. Also offers breakfast and very tasty coffee.

We loved mostly everything, but there were no oven gloves or tea towel in the kitchen one night so struggled with the hot pan, but it was fine we found a spoon! ☺️ A shower mat outside the shower would be great, to stop the floor getting so wet.

Amazing peaceful hostel! Love the terrace garden 🪴 it’s beautiful! The staff are lovely, the $3.50 breakfast is amazing value! We used the laundry service twice and it’s brilliant, and they let us store our luggage while we went to the Amazon for a few days! We have already booked to come back! 😊

The property is beautiful. Lots of plants through out the whole area. There’s a shared kitchen, work area, dinning area and even a room for arts and crafts! The is quiet at night so it’s a good place to rest!

Such a beautiful roof terrace, like an oasis of peace and tranquility! The room was very comfortable as well, and we got a great night’s sleep. Perfect for those who like a quiet atmosphere. Great location within the city, a short uber ride from all the major sights and attractions.

It's really hard to communicate with staff because they can't speak english at all. Even they can't understand the word 'towel'.

Fantastic facilities like a botanical garden

Hot showers and comfortable bed. Room was spacious. We only stayed for one night but it suited us fine.

I had an incredible experience at Quito Terrace! The location is perfect, very close to the historic center and the artisanal market, only ten minutes away. The staff is very friendly and helpful which made my stay here feel like home! The rooms were incredibly clean and the beautiful terrace was a great place to unwind after a long day of exploring the city. Amazing value for the price, and I will definitely stay here again!!

Sure, I'll incorporate these recommendations into the review: --- I do have a couple of recommendations. The pillows could be more comfortable, similar to the beds. I found them too hard and preferred to sleep without them. Another suggestion is to place a mat in the bathroom outside the shower to prevent slipping.

I absolutely loved everything about this place. It's a quiet spot where you can rest well. Superbly located near the metro station and the bus that takes you directly to the middle of the world. Also, it's very close to the city center, about 20 or 30 minutes away, depending on the traffic. El Panecillo is relatively close too. An incredible place to stay in Hostel Quito! Previously, I stayed at Hostel Secret Garden but decided to move because many people, including non-guests, would enter the restaurant and bar late at night, making a lot of noise with loud music. This made it feel unsafe. Hostel Quito is incredible in especially Edison and doesn't have these issues. It's super safe with security cameras, and the kitchen is spacious and professional, ideal for travelers. The $3 breakfast is one of the best—delicious and clean. The staff is very accommodating, providing shampoo, soap, and towels. The bed was super clean and comfortable, and the bathroom was spacious and spotless, with beautiful wooden floors. The hostel has a lovely garden. If you need to work during your stay, you'll love it here.

It was amazing! We stayed there for 3 nights. The man at the reception was really nice. The don‘t offer Tours but he knows some agencies so gave us a number from a really good agency with which we did two day-tours. The laundry service is also good and kind of cheap. The Hostal is next to a big park and at night it‘s quiet. Also the historic center is in a walkable distance. I read that some of the reviews say it‘s a sketchy neighborhood - during the night it seems a little bit sketchy but same sketchy as everywhere else - bc of the current situation you should take a Uber anyway at night. So I can totally recommend this hostal! It‘s a good price and comfy. The only thing is that they didn‘t change our towels once but I am sure they would if we asked directly.

Little not to like about this hotel although the bed was quite firm (I found it ok but my wife found it very hard). She also found the stairs a challenge with her luggage, although I quite enjoyed the exercise! :)

This hotel is a real gem! Comfortable, affordable accommodation conveniently located opposite El Ejido Park and within walking distance of the Historic Centre. The room and ensuite bathroom were spacious, clean and well appointed. The Staff were super friendly and helpful. Eddie, at reception, is worth his weight in gold! His English is very good and he went out of his way to be helpful in any way he could. If we ever return to Quito I would definitely book here again!

Perfect facility . Good location

kitchen should supply some gloves and more rags as it will be too hot to hold the cover when cooked. This is necessary! it is a bit hard to find them as the number of the building invisible and the name is under a cover, suggest put the number as mentioned in the platform clearly outside the door or on the wall outside!

the entire decoration is very beautiful. bathroom is big with hot water. Each bed has a cabin with lamp and socket. kitchen supply is ok. Close to metro station and trolebús station. Shops just outside the door. Surrounding is safe. Staff is very helpful.

The staff is excellent and the property is absolutely amazing.

the shower needs a lot of patience to adjust the water temperature, all the rest was great!

the roof garden was incredible, the room (the higher priced one with garden view) was quiet, nice table with chairs for breakfast surrounded by flowers. close to the shared kitchen. Great cafe on site, very nice staff , especially the nightwatch! early check in allowed us to explore the city already in the morning!

Not many people around. I think partially due to the security situation but also I think its lack reviews on hostelworld. No onsite tour agency.

The terrace of the hostel really lives up to its name. I have never seen any hostels are this beautifully decorated with natural plants and massive sitting and common space areas. The terrace also has fantastic view of one of the city parks, and great for people watching and observing local livelihood. Kitchen is also very well equipped with an industry grade gas stove (fantastic for asian stir fries!) and various condiments. Portable water tank is also provided free of charge. Location is just about 5 minutes off the nearest Metro exit and 10 minutes to the biggest fresh market - Santa Clara. All the bars and restaurants in / around La Mariscal are also within walking distance. Beds are also very premium with no upper bunks, big bathroom with piping hot shower and high water pressure. Towels and soups are provided free of charge. Onsite laundry room (extra fee) Highly recommend for guests aren't into young backpacker scene (The secret gardens?) but yet still seeking for convenience and affordability.

Edison went above and beyond to help us! We are very grateful to him and I would happily return on any occasion I'm in Quito

This hostel is beautiful, the staff are very friendly and helpful and the terrace upstairs is stunning. It's a great place to work, hang out, cook, and eat. We booked a private room and the rooms are a great size and very clean.

Our room only had a small window and it was quite stuffy, with a slight smell. Didn’t hugely bother us but air freshener would have made it a 10!

Friendly staff. Beautiful terraces, very peaceful and tranquil. Lots of space to sit and chill. Breakfast in the cafe was nice - $4 for avocado and eggs, guac was delicious. Juice and instant coffee but you can upgrade to a proper coffee if you like. Laundry service fast and good value. Room was very large and comfortable. Cute Pomeranian doggy at reception

The staff were very accommodating and kind gave me lots of help during my stay. The room was exceptionally clean, cozy and warm! The terrace was the top of my list and an amazing place to relax as well! They also have a very clean and aesthetic coffee shop where I enjoyed a delicious breakfast at a great price! I can really feel the owner’s dedication and love for this hostel!! :)
