Es acordé al precio, lugar sencillo para hospedarse a un bajo costo, limpio, lo único malo es que no respetan los términos de la reservación con Expedia, incluso se molestaron porque Expedia me dio un precio más bajo y no me querían respetar los costos ni tampoco incluirme el desayuno, siendo que lo había pagado, ya molestos me respetaron el precio y de la nada me cobraron el estacionamiento, cómo para compensar en costo señalando que el estacionamiento tenis un costo diario y por día, además incluso señalando que si no estaba de acuerdo ya no encontraría hotel en otro lugar de otavalo por la hora y porque había fiesta, lo que ocasiono un chek in desagradable

Quiet and clean room with comfortable beds. Location is close to market. Onsite parking is free and secure. Staff speak very little English. Bring a paper copy of your confirmation as they had troubles locating our reservation. Free breakfast was at neighboring restaurant - you get the basic American option (eggs, toast, etc.).

I loved the rustic style woodwork, bright colors of the walls, authentic decor, natural lighting, and comfortable rooms and common areas. Staff were very nice, helpful, friendly. Towels were worn out but condition of all else was excellent.
