Lovely, easy, quiet stay for someone who speaks little Spanish and a quick night stay. Staff was eager to do their best to help when I didn’t understand. The breakfast is unlike any hotel breakfast in the states. Excellent!

Everything you'll need plus helpful, friendly staf

I haven't stayed in the town of Otavalo before; usually I prefer out in the campo. This time though I was on a specific mission at the market and must have asked the front desk staff 1000 questions and each time they were amazing. I got good restaurant recommendations, a tip on where to go for alpaca, and a great massage they organized before my trip to Quito and flight home.

Reservamos y resulta que el hotel no nos brindó el servicio porque estaba lleno. Me parece una falta de respeto que teniendo una reserva nos digan eso. Entonces que no ofrezcan su servicio por plataforma porque no garantizan la reserva.
