This is a great location if you are doing outdoor tours within the volcanoes, notably Cotopaxi.

The location-the hostel is situated 500m off the panamerica highway so it is really quiet but all the residents created a really warm and friendly atmosphere.

The hostel is historically significant, as it was once the family home of a really well known figure in Ecuador and all of Latin America. Simon Bolivar --was known as a hero, visionary, revolutionary and liberator. The building itself was over 180 years old. A bus load of young people were there from parts of Europe, so that made for a lively setting and they all seemed to be enjoyable and respectful. As far as the surrounding location goes, it would take too a lot of pictures to describe the beauty of this place and even then, it would be inadequate. One could possibly uncover a very nice property here with a modest to very nice home on it for anywhere from 20 to 40 thousand.

Aside from the lovely surrounding volcanoes, it happened to be one of the historical sites of ecuador. where simon bolivar started the revolution.

The atmosphere, the wonderful service, the other travelers, the nice-sized rooms, comfortable beds and hot showers. I want to emphasize the wonderful service -- they go out of their way to be helpful and pleasant and available, no matter what your language. We would definitely recommend this hostel to others. We think there should be more food offerings that are not so rich. And we think there should be consistent heat in every bedroom. The hosteria doesn't say there is heat, so they give an honest description.

I need to emphasize the great service -- they go out of their way to be helpful and pleasant and available, no matter what your language. We would definitely recommend this hostel to others. We think there should be much more food offerings that are not so rich. And we think there should be consistent heat in every single bedroom. The hosteria doesn&'t say there is heat, so they give an honest description.
