“In my opinion, this family run Posada has charm, with spacious rooms offering views of the Virgin of Panecillo statue, a well-equipped kitchen, and a terrace. I think its location, near Quito's historic center, is a definite advantage. The helpful staff, and the generous breakfast for only 3 USD, make it excellent value.”
