This hotel really deserves its name, Friends. i can’t remember the last time when I felt so welcomed. The reception is very helpful. i inmediately felt st home. There are some nice common areas if you don’t want to be in your room. i loved the rocking chair outside my room. Breakfast was good too, with fresh fruit, juice, eggs, toast and coffee/too. Only minus is some street noice in the morning.

The building itself, the age, the wood floors, the wooden staircases, the roof top breakfast area which has an amazing view and whilst the building is historically charming the bathrooms are modern.
The check in was excellent. Efficient, informative and very friendly.

Nice, clean place to stay in Quito. The staff is very helpful, and we found the room to be clean and without too much noise in the night. The front desk is happy to help guide you. The breakfast is tasty!

Very pleasant and attractive room. Access a bit challenging for anyone with mobility issues because of stairs.

Front desk was very helpful in planning pickup and drop off for airport. Packed us a light breakfast for our plane trip as we left very early in the morning

An ideal place to stay with friends in a city of mystery, the bed and the room was ideal to stay 2 nights, the treatment was very friendly and they tried to help you in everything you need, the breakfast was very rich, something from another world, its location is close to everything especially the big square just 5min walk. I hope to come back very soon to stay with my new friends.

The environment at the hotel was extremely welcoming, the service was great and the room was well equipped and clean. I particularly enjoyed the walking tour with Santiago, who was very thorough with his explanations and showed us the best of Quito’s beautiful historical town! Even though I was traveling solo, I never felt alone because of the staff. I would definitely recommend this place to any travellers looking for a more personal and traditional trip in Quito!

Staff were excellent. Beyond what is expected. Room was tired - safe and television didn't work and there were exposed electrical wires in the bathroom. Breakfast and view from the rooftop was excellent. Location is good too.

I booked the hotel as it included free parking. I also informed the hotel I would be arriving very late, around 22:00. The hotel confirmed that parking would be available.
Unfortunately, there was no parking available when we arrived. The hotel staff tried to find a place but was unable. After about 45 minutes, we booked a different hotel nearby.

We arrived very early in the morning from a long bus ride. Unfortunately, we couldn’t check in early but the staff let us sleep on the couches in the common area which was a blessing. The places is very nice, with friendly staff and nice decorations. We liked our breakfast and enjoyed the view from the rooftop. We were quite surprised that the rooftop was with side windows as we were hoping to be able to smoke there (heavy smokers here). Unfortunately, there was absolutely no place were we could have smoked on the premises and that was one of the reasons we booked this hotel as we hope there is an open rooftop terrace. Anyways, our room was small but nice with hot water. The windows were not really soundproof so you can hear everything on the nearby streets. They organize free walking tours every day at 10 which is great. Thank you for your hospitality!

Got an upgrade to an ensuite room which was nice. Tv didn't work nor didn't the light. Bathroom was good. Local to the historic centre so food and sights in walking distance. Only downside was lack of food on the first day in the restaurant part. Wifi was ok

Great and quirky little hostel. Provide free activities everyday, very clean. Good wifi. Friendly staff, even did our laundry for free, very comfortable place and extremely reasonable price. Upon my trip to Quito I had been recommended to stay at COMMUNITY hostel- I am so glad their private rooms were already booked up because once being in the area FRIENDS hostel is much better situated, rooms were cheaper and I absolutely loved my stay. The area felt very safe to walk around in.

We booked last minute due to flight changes and the front desk staff were kind enough to let us in at 1am when we arrived. Great old town location. You don't need any taxis if you want to explore cathedrals and museums. We would certainly stay here again.

Vibes were good & staff were knowledgable & helpful. Showers were cold, bathroom smelled like urine, and the neighborhood was noisy.

Hostel manager Henry is very friendly and made sure we knew our way around old town Quito by giving us our own tour!
