Hostal Mitad del Mundo

The location is close to most beauty places in quito.

Duration: 5 nights (Sun-Fri) Travelers: 1 Located at the Plaza Foch, access to restaurants and nightlife was a one street away. Also, most all tours have a pickup point here at Plaza Foch making it very convenient. I highly recommend knowing Spanish or know how to use a translator really well. The entire staff speaks only Spanish with very few English words. Glad I knew survival Spanish to get me around. lol. Overall the staff is great, friendly, and very patient with me as I sometimes had to open Google translate for the "big" words. A+ I reserved a single room w/ private bath versus the Hostel shared BRs. My room was in the back downstairs. It had had 3 single beds. OMG, the comforter was crazy thick and warm. There was a 32 LCD TV w/ DirectTV (Spanish only ch), large closets. Yes the entire property is old so expect aged furnishing. But decent for the price. The bathroom was fully functional. Though there was mold building up on the ceiling (they had this odd popcorn style texture). Nonetheless the it was clean, shower water pressure was good and decently hot. No toiletries, but a store is right next door. Cheap too. I would stay again if there. Location and great people.

It was slightly noisy, given that it was by all the bars and a busy Plaza Foch. But the staff's hospitality, cleanliness and privacy of my room more than made up for any inconvenience. I would stay there again if I travel to Quito again.

This hotel is the perfect location within Plaza Foch. The room was clean and staff was friendly. Easy checkin.
