I like the place, the area near partys places like bar and clubs. I dont know every time I talk to locals about this area ( foch plaza ) they told it isnt safe area, but I am fine during my stay. But group of people standing in the street looks scary sometimes. Host is very friendly and prepare breakfast

I dont feel comfortable everytime I have to ring the bell to get in and it makes me hesitate to go out at night because I dont want to wake them up by ringing the bell after midnite.

If there is a better place to stay in Quito, I don't want to know. Arupo is perfect. A beautiful and super comfortable space, in a very busy neighborhood with lots of options, but with the hostal located on a much quieter street. The highlight, however, is the incredible staff: friendly, smiling, efficient. It will always be my choice when I return to Quito.

Honestly, nothing to mention.

I love my little attic room with its pale wood ceiling and crisp white walls. Great hot water and super helpful and friendly staff. The location is right in a fun busy area, with great restaurants, just steps away.

The room was pretty chilly. A little heater would’ve been nice to take off the edge of cold. There was no hand towel nor bathmat, which would have been really helpful when stepping out onto the cold floor after a shower. Also, if you were a light sleeper, definitely bring earplugs as the music from local bars will keep you up.

I really enjoyed this place. Gave a good balance of openness as well as privacy. The bathrooms were clean and there was good service. Places to wash your clothes as well as a very nice kitchen and dining area. The location is excellent as well. You are close to multiple restaraunts and bars.

The staff were terrific, very friendly and very helpful. The location was good, close to some very good restaurants. The hotel was very nice, with rooms to sit and read it and it was very clean and attractive.

It can get a bit noisy due to nearby clubs Fri & Sat but that isn't the hotels fault.

The owner was very helpful and sweet. She goes out of her way to accommodate you. I liked the location, at the edge of the Mariscal. The shower is great, with strong pressure and the water is hot. Breakfast is good; they provide bread with a sweet anise -- so good. They'll cook eggs however you want them.

I would have liked a security box; the room was a little dark; other than that, it was great!

A very comfortable and welcoming guesthouse in Mariscal, set on a quiet road near to bars and restaurants. The family who run the hotel were incredibly friendly, making a delicious breakfast of fruit, eggs and juice every morning. You can use the guest kitchen or relax on the terrace or in the cosy lounge. The bedroom was the most comfortable we have had in South America, quiet, dark, comfortable bed and a hot shower.

Nothing!

Good location. I was travelling by bus into north Quito and leaving from south Quito the next day and this place is in between the two bus terminals. Lovely staff - friendly and helpful. Breakfast is included. The kitchen has purified water for drinking. I could also boil some water in the evening to make tea.

My room was on the ground floor, with windows overlooking a courtyard and stairs, which made it a little less private than other rooms.

Wow .. such a spacious room .. the bed was massive, as well as being very comfortable. The staff were really friendly. The hotel was located near to some nice restaurants etc however there was some noise from a nearby bar, even on a Monday night. But with ear plugs i could sleep. Overall a great experience

Nothing

Super friendly managers, very helpful, room comfortable, clean, hot water, nice breakfast, etc.

My room had several windows and despite some curtains, a lot of light got in; though this area was decimated by the COVID lockdowns, there’s still 1 bar nearby with loud music that could be heard in my room. Ear plugs helped.
