Summary: Very friendly and helpful staff, and the restaurant is excellent - one of the best in Otavalo. The free breakfast is just average, but the lunch and dinner menu is great. The pizza from their wood fired oven is excellent, and also their various pasta dishes.

Summary: Lovely little hotel. Close to the market. Very helpful staff who organized a driver to take us to the Cuicocha Lake, and pick us up after the hike. We struggled to find a bus to Latacunga but, again, the receptionist was very helpful in contacting the bus company. Luis took us to the bus stop and made sure we got on the right bus. Great service.
