I stayed for two nights and everything was great. The owners are very sweet and the hostel is close to cafes, the bus station, and the Otovalo Market. My room was big and comfortable with a great view from the terrace! Muchas gracias por todo!

“Lovely old fashioned hostel”
Large hostel, but with comfortable feel and lovely owners and staff. Clean throughout, but kitchen could do with more attention! A map was provided when we arrived. Key access to front door and room. Near to rail station (disused), walkable to many sites (inc. Pan American highway for buses to Tulcán) and less than $2 taxi to bus terminal. Good wifi/internet/network, but connection often dropped for a second or two for no apparent reason. Large kitchen, with 2 ovens (1 electric, 1 gas), each with 4 ring hobs, 2 large fridge freezers. Plenty of pots, pans and crockery. Plenty of outdoor, rooftop spaces (great views). Generally quiet, not much traffic, but the usual dogs barking. Warm enough, but with plenty of blankets for some cold nights. Hand washing sink for clothes, and plenty of drying lines. Rubbish separated into organic and other, plenty of signs asking for lights to be switched of when not in use, but no other signs for recycling. Netflix was available (with your own account), but we couldn't get it to work (internet signal not working properly). Decent sized bedroom with comfortable bed, with one bedside table and second table and chair. Plenty of hooks for coats etc. Bathroom has good hot shower (when water pressure up).

“Great value friendly staff”
Great staff. Lovely welcome. Easy to find and we could check in early. Kitchen was there if you wanted to cook but we only did breakfast as food is so cheap we like to support the locals. Decent enough hot shower but the spray head needs adjusting if replacing as it sprays out everywhere. They are going loads of renovations so in a few months there will be extra facilities. Great value for money too.

“Lovely hotel, would stay again”
We loved hostal Chasqui. Don Manuel is the sweetest man and doña Abigail was very helpful. We loved hanging out with other guests in the kitchen area and were lucky to meet some really nice people. The room was exactly what we needed and the location of the hostel was petefect. Very close to the central plaza, but in a very quiet street. We felt very safe there and even stayed longer than initially planned.

“Really good location for the town with exceptionally helpful and friendly staff.”
As mentioned elsewhere, the staff were really helpful in every way. Parking for our car was excellent, and the hostel has a great location both for the town of Otavalo, and for easy access out to other places. Excellent value for money and I would recommend it highly.

I rarely give the maximum rating of "10" to the hotels where I live, since everywhere you can find some shortcomings. But we liked this small hotel so much that we stayed for several days instead of one night. Lovely clean rooms, superbly equipped kitchen with all utilities, large veranda with beautiful views of the city and mountains. The location is very convenient, 7 minutes walk to the city center.

“Excellent stay, great kitchen, comfy beds & room!”
Cozy, clean & comfortable rooms & bathrooms with hot water. Kitchen was well equipped & spacious. Staff always available & helpful. Numerous patios to enjoy views or to workout in. Good location about a 10 min walk from the big market, and even closer to a grocery store/gym/restaurants.
