    Nothing - this hostel exceeded on all points.

    This hostel was beautiful, clean and well organized with a super helpful staff. I loved the food and the rooftop and thought my room was clean and large with a great bed. I thoroughly enjoyed the evening activities - they helped me meet others and have a great time! Could not recommend this place more for your time in Quito!

    One small thing - they consistently blocked off bathrooms around checkout time 9-11am for cleaning. Not very fair for those who want to have a shower or use the facilities before leaving!!!

    Nice comfy beds. friendly staff. Good wifi. Nice spaces to work or chill. Good was nice on the top level

    - The shower water was always super cold every time I showered (it never even got a little bit warm).

    - Best dorm room I’ve ever stayed in (privacy curtain, electrical plug and light for each bed, huge storage lockers in the room). - Felt very secure with lots of security codes to keep the guest areas separate from the public areas. - Short walk from historic centre. - Super helpful staff. - Great rooftop patio with really good food and drinks. - Lots of fun activities offered and ideas for tours you can book directly from the hostel.

    Only improvement is beds could have curtains ( I'm being really picky here)

    Great staff, great location. Food there was lovely. WiFi was great. Power in lockable drawers. Free water and tea. Sport on TV. Activity most nights, fantastic rooftop view. Airport transfer for same/cheaper that Uber. Right next to a SIM card place, big fresh market and a few blocks from a free ATM for international cards All for $5. What's not to love

    Small downside - No working plug socket in my lockable draw, only one in the room for 6 people which was being used

    Super cheap. Staff were super helpful, showed me where to get the cheapest SIM card, free ATM for cash withdrawal and the best local beers. Family dinner was great food and a cool rooftop to chill and hang.

    The kitchen was under renovation. There were many stairs to climb as the hostel is in a three storey building.

    The hostel is close to the food market and near the historical centre. The mattress is new and comfortable, the bathrooms are kept clean and the rooftop has a good view of the city. The staff were friendly and helpful.

    We stayed here twice, before and after our Galapagos trip. We were able to store our luggage for 10 days for free which was amazing. The rooftop is fantastic, the kitchen is well equipped and the shared bathrooms are very clean with excellent showers. The staff were all excellent, especially Ely who gave us lots of helpful advice on tours in Ecuador. Community has a lovely social vibe with lots of activities without feeling like a party hostel. We loved the family dinner! Our second stay was far more comfortable than the first - try and request the "Ochoa" room if you're going for a private room. It is almost twice as big as the "Climber" room, with towels provided and a much more comfortable bed (for the same price!). The Climber was very noisy as music and traffic drifted down from the rooftop from 8am until after 11pm. Bring a good pair of earplugs if this would bother you, but overall I would definitely recommend staying here!

    Shower went cold after 2 minutes Location is not great, it's a quick walk to a better area though. Pretty noisy if you have a room onto the market side

    The area is a little sketchy at night. Get an Uber directly here. There's security at the entrance after dark so that's good.

    Definitely go for the free walking tour (tip encouraged). They have different activities every night too

    We loved our stay here and will come back if we are ever in Quito again. The staff, food, rooftop, nearby laundry, and activities including free walking tour were exceptional. We felt very looked after by the staff, and it was the perfect place to explore old town from. We went in the free walking tour and Paulo was a great guide. We ate market fruit, learned some history, went chocolate tasting and walked through the beautifully preserved old streets.

    I did not like that it did not seem to have full length mirrors ( I'm just being picky but it would be a nice simple add on) and the location was good but the neighborhood not so much

    I like how they really push for the community aspect of it offering dinners to share together as well as activities
