We loved our stay at the Galapagos Hostel! It was in a great area that was quiet during the day but had super fun night life! Great location close to central Quito but not too close! 10/10 would recommend

El trato de los dueños es excelente, siempre amables y presentes, nos dieron tips y consejos para movernos. Con excepción de la señora que limpia y a veces hace el desayuno, muy descortés, grosera y gritona. Quitaba el agua caliente, cerraba los baños con llave y le habla mal a los huéspedes. Felicidades a los dueños que gracias a su atención tuvimos días maravillosos 👏

Me tocó el cuarto que da al patio. Si abro la cortina todos pueden mirar adentro. De noche la lámpara de la calle alumbraba el cuarto. El ventilador en el baño estaba colgado. Hacia ruido pero no servia de nada. Un lampara sobre un mueble no estaba enchufada. Para enchufarla tenía que llevarla a una esquina en donde no servia.
