| "This apartment is located in the Old Town, at the top of a steep hill behind the historic and beautiful Basillica Church. We stayed two weeks and enjoyed every minute. The beautiful rooftop terrace has fantastic views and a nice table with umbrella and chairs. Of course, it does rain many afternoons in Quito, so be sure to have breakfast and/or lunch on the terrace, since it may not be a great locale for supper. :-) An easy cab ride takes you anywhere into either Old or New Town and back, for only a dollar or two. Very centrally located and quiet, so no problem with late night noise from partying, as you might find in the Mariscal or other, more central, parts of Old Town.
The apartment itself is charming, with a full kitchen, dining room, living room, and three bedrooms. Simple, but everything you need for a great, affordable, and very pleasant stay in Quito. Also, no problem with hot water showers, which I understand is frequently an issue in Ecuador.
In addition, the management is very accessible and receptive (although its not all that easy to find the rental office itself), so if there are any problems with the house, you can except immediate help.
Highly recommend! and would certainly come back if I plan another Quito visit."

| "Cozy extra large second floor apartment in Old town.
Excellent choice for a visiting family. The apartment has a perfect location behind the "Basilica." Access is off a family oriented pedestrian alleyway. The street in front has a park, small food stores, bakery and restaurants.
Using the well equipped kitchen we prepared several of our own meals after bargaining at the local open air market a few blocks away.
The roof top terrace is wonderful. Perfect for watching the sunset with a glass of wine while listening to the Cathedral bells.
Traveling to a foreign Country with 4 people can be a challenging
experience. The Staff of Colonial Ecuador made our visit easy.
We will be back.
