Great vibe and hangout areas. A variety of activities are available, and the staff is very helpful. The place is clean and well organized.

Nice cozy hostel with friendly staff and volunteers, warm showers were available, many breakfast to choose from, beds were comfy but bunks were quite difficult, kitchen facilities should be improved,

Good place where to stay between 2 destinations or just to relax!
It might be hard to find, just a small yellow facade between houses.
Here this is what you will appreciate:
-Good location, in the historical center and near the bus stop "Almenda".
-The effort put into the nice decoration! Lots of pieces of art, fun maps, fun facts abbout Quito, vegetations which make the place so much lively!
-Cool place where to chill such as the hamocks or sofa at every floors or the small but nice rooft top terrasse.
-Last but not least! A really helpfull, attentif, kind staff! The lady who works generally in the morning, try hard to help you in the best way she can! And it's such
encouraging when you're getting lost in this such big city!
Volunteers who work here are mostly really open mind and you probably end up going out party wth them.
Good shower place, confortable bed in most of the dorms. Just avoid "Place grande" it's cold, dark and you hear the noises of the street... :/
I loved the kitchen, really nice when you want to cook!

Checked in, 20 min later checked out.
I had high hopes based on the reviews and the communal area but once I entered my room I was left speechless. There were clumps of hair in the sink and someone's shampoo in the shower which would indicate that they didn't even bother to clean the bathroom. The room was very run down, dirty walls and stained furniture. The window was broken and did not shut, which is an issue considering that it gets quite cold at night. Every second blind was broken and lying on the floor. No one even bothered to pick those up. I know it's a hostel and I didn't expect any luxuries but for 30 USD per night someone at least could clean the room. I ended up moving to an awesome hotel up the road that charged me 50 USD per night and had breakfast included.

I ended up spending nearly a week here. It's comfortable, cosy and place you can relax at.
It has everything you would want in a hostel. There is an upstairs bar as well and a mini restaurant where you buy breakfast. It was fairly quiet when I stayed there so the activities advertised didn't really happen. Sandra, who seems to be the manager, was a font of information and very helpful. There seemed to be a lot of volunteers at reception as well. Some were better than others. There was a slight issue with hot water in showers going from scolding hot to come occasionally.

It's located fairly close to main tourist area so I would recommend here.
