    The room and area (top floor) was unfinished. No assistance with luggage for elderly couple. Added Booking..com commission onto price. Too far out of town.

    Good breakfast with fresh bread fruit and eggs. Beds comfortable.

    Although there was a stove in the living/eating area they didn't heat it up. But that's maybe because we were the only guests.

    Nice hostel, very close to Laguna Quilotoa. As we made a last minute reservation we had to wait a little bit for somebody to open. Breakfast and dinner were good, but not as good as in the other hostels on the Quilotoa loop hike the family was super nice and we even got a little gift when leaving. Also it was very clean.

    We stayed 3 nights, 2 would have been better. But our 3rd day we took a bus to the Sat market which was fun. It is really cold here and they do not use heat. That is the way it is. We did not have exact change for our room and had to ask several times for the change. We finally got on the 2nd evening.

    The family was nice and polite. The included Breakfast was delicious, dinner was nutritious. Close to the bus stop. They had a portable heater for us to use in our room. Also a shared sun room with furniture. Nice place to be warm if the sun is out.

    There was one night of our stay when the water cut off. We messaged the owners via WhatsApp but didn’t receive a response. It’s possible this was a village wide outage and out of the owners’ control, but it would have been nice to receive a response.

    Martita’s is a very cute hotel with a lot of charm. It was clean and cozy and is in a great location - only a few minutes walk away from the bus stop, restaurants, artesanal shops and hiking trails. The breakfast (included in the price) was great: eggs, bread, fruit, yogurt and coffee/tea/water. The dinner was also tasty, filling and reasonably priced. Our room had a space heater, but it can still be quite chilly inside so bring warm clothes!

    We had half-burned with nothing to light it with in our room for the furnace. the dinner felt like it was missing a dessert after we had dessert at other places along the quilotoa loop.

    we had a room with a lot of light. the staff were friendly and the breakfast was filling!

    The owner also runs a store somewhere in town and it took a while (over an hour) for her to show up to check us in.

    The location was just inside the Quilotoa gate and an easy walk to the crater edge. Dinner and breakfast were included which was great. There was a small stove in our room which we lit for heat. We enjoyed this feature.

    Meals were not on time. We were told 6:30 for dinner but it came at 7:30, and had to wait a while for breakfast as well.

    House was exceptionally clean in bedrooms and common areas. Food was great. Room nice and big and bright with big windows. Beds very comfy and warm.

    Lack of soap in the rooms and the communal toilet was unhygienic. We asked for soap, but clearly none at the property at all, which is unpleasant. Room could have been cleaned - a few stray hairs and stains on the beds / sheets. It felt like they were being a bit mean with provisions - only one towel and one tiny sachet of shampoo given for two people. When we arrived there was only a young child at reception. It took a while before anyone appeared. Food was fine, just basic.

    It was quiet and the room was comfortable enough. We were able to refill our water bottles. Although it was cold we didn’t have any issues sleeping as the blankets provided were sufficient.

    It was very cold in the hotel and the room and since we were the only guests no one offered to make a fire untill we asked them to. We got a small heater for the room which was hardly enough to get comfortabel. The staff did not make an effort to communicate but only answered when asked a question. Apparently there was a party in the village that day with extremely loud music which went on untill way after midnight so we hardly slept at all.

    Location very close to crater lake, the food was nice but limited portions.

    We did not get to stay at the property as it was closed when we arrived due to there being no running water. We didn’t receive an email or any other message to say this was the case, and so had to run around Quilatoa trying to find a new place to stay last minute. Thankfully we didn’t get charged.
