Such a nice hostel in the old town of Quite. They have a great roof top terrace with amazing views over the town. This makes it a great place to meet new people and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. Staff very helpful.
They also have a beautiful place up at Cotopaxi. Value for money and a most-do! The people at Secret Garden in Quito will arrange your trip to Cotopaxi.
They also arrange spanish classes for you at the hostel.
The only negative thing is that the rooms can be a bit noisy. We had the room by the entrance door and people are coming and leaving at all times. That was a bit annoying. But beds are great!

Located in a quiet area in Old City on what looks like a peaceful block. Amazing rooftop restaurant/common area with spectacular views of the city and the mountains…people were always up there eating, hanging out, reading, etc. Rooms were clean, basic and comfortable and the shared showers and bathrooms were clean and well maintained (and great hot water too!). Definitely a hub for travelers, and many opportunities to sit in common areas (like the computer/wifi room) and share stories and tips. Close relationship with Carpe dm adventures which is located next door and while we didn’t take advantage of their tours (we were just passing through town), it was a convenient location to say the least. Definitely a good and safe home base, but don’t assume the city is as well. Take taxis everywhere and watch your back and your valuables when you are outside (we got robbed while in Quito - a bag was snatched while we were in La Mariscal). Management helped us with some robbery-related errands/annoyances as well which was much appreciated.

The hostel was in a good location. Close to a lot of major sites and good walking. The rooms were a little small but cozy. The beds were nice and comfortable. Plenty of blankets to keep warm. There was no hot water and the bathroom was a little dirty. The meals were tasty and the fires at night were great. Staff was friendly and always having fun. Travel agency onsite as well as a great trip to Cotopaxi. A good stay for a price

The rooftop terrace is increcible and the meals offered are excellent. The acoustics of the hostel are a down side. If people are awake in the lounge, the whole hostel is awake (I was two floors down in B2 which even has a separate lounge and door to further separate it from the main hostel, but still the noise carried). If you are interested in being social and staying up all night this place is ideal.

Alos, in our group of 7 who stayed 4 nights in total, I think there was one hot shower and 4 luke warm showers... at best. The vibe is great if you want a party scene.
