“Cute place to enjoy Otavalo”
Cute, authentic place with very nice staff. We felt very welcomed and spent a nice night here. It's clean and a bit chaotic but in a cozy way. Would come back :)

The place is really cosy, it feels like home. The people working there are amazing. They have the best hot shower in the whole country.

the room was comfortable; although street noise (on a Saturday night) was quite loud. Street noise is not under the hostel's control, of course, but with windows open, it made for a disruptive sleep. It was noisy because the location was great...easy walk to everything we needed. Host was responsive to our request for drinking water; much appreciated.

“Wouldn't recommend”
The hostel staff were available to let us into our room at around 11pm when our bus was very late. Rooms were comfortable.
