5 relaxing atmosphere, lots of humming birds in the backyard   — Customer review (2012-01-11) Hostelbookers
4 Good breakfast, very friendly and informative owner who speaks a little English, clean, comfortable, homely. Wifi, kitchen and laundry services available. Amazing location for bird and general wildlife watching, the garden was brimming with hummingbirds, they were within an arm's length of me, and I was there in low season! I also saw toucans, other birds and an armadillo... Highly recommended to anyone with even a slight interest in nature or wildlife photography.   — Customer review (2011-11-30) Hostelbookers
5 Nice quite location, close to everything. Hammocks and incredible humming birds in the back garden.   — Customer review (2011-09-30) Hostelbookers
5 Lovely hostel, great location, beautiful hummingbirds, 24 hour hot water, fabulous breakfast too (they will do you an early one too if you are getting the 6.30am bus back to Quito). Stayed an extra night than we intended!   — Customer review (2011-08-26) Hostelbookers

4 The garden and especially the hummingbird feeders were lovely. So was the woman who made us breakfast each morning, and got up extra early on the day we left at 5.30am to go birding. The hammocks were also great.   — Customer review (2010-11-16) Hostelbookers

4  This is a super place if you like birds and butterflies. Bring a book on the birds of Ecuador and your binoculars. You will find more bird species here than almost anywhere in the world. Ask local guide Maria to take you and see the red rock rooster. And of course, I was very much taken by my gracious hostess Flor.  ()
3  I have been there for 3 days. Everthing is very nice, however the breakfast is unbelievable good!! Thank you again. Heike / Kassel / Germany  ()
