I had an incredible stay; it was very clean, comfortable, and easily accessible. Moreover, it has a balcony with a fantastic view of the city. The staff were friendly and provided a warm welcome. Additionally, the quality of the food and drinks was outstanding. Highly recommended ☺️

We only stayed a night but had nice spacious, clean, comfortable room. Shared bathrooms were very clean. Rooftop had great views of the city. Great location close to Centro histórico. We didn't get a chance to embrace the community side of the hostal but would encourage others to stay a couple of nights if they can to enjoy that side.

Location isn’t great but Uber around the city is cheap. It’s a 20min walk to the main plaza and churches.

4 bed dorm was comfortable (I was the only person!) and with plenty of storage space. Daily activities on the rooftop with a beautiful view of the city, and good food there. Staff are super friendly. I highly recommend taking their walking tour, it was very interesting and informative.

Not that much.

I Like the roof top bar and reception. The view there is terrific with whole ancient Quito in one eye. The host team are very welcoming. They actively approached us for a dinner (charged with a nice price) before our landing. You know this is so great for new comers to a youth hostel. We do not need to shop around for no idea but great food already served to us with opportunity to talk to other people around. The shared kitchen there offers enough cooking utensils which make our life much easier. The location is also very convenient. Just several steps you can reach vegetables, matches, locks and fruits. You can jump into the crowded town but step back you return to a quiet room to stay.

Not enough bathrooms for the amount of people on each floor

Location, rooftop terrace, tours offered, comfy beds, great staff and facilities

Stayed in January 2024

The area is a bit unsafe, I had encountered some very bad experiences. The sinks can be a bit cleaner.

The bed was comfortable. I checked in at 2am and they answered the bell quickly.

Might be a bit loud place if you want to sleep early because of the activities

Nice social hostel, activities everyday. Good wifi, friendly staff and they offer tours

Stayed in November 2023

Two negative points: I had to wake up very early (around 2.30 AM)!because of my flight in the morning, so I tried to sleep early but it was almost impossible because of the noise from the roof top. They stop music at some point but sleeping before is not possible (even with earplugs :D)… other point: I asked for recommendations in Galapagos and they wanted me to send a what’s app with information. Unfortunately I never received a message.

First of all: the name of the hostel is really true. They are kind of a community and every evening is a nice event - many people from around are joining which makes a nice atmosphere. Also they give lots of helpful informations about the area or trips in Ecuador… the free walking tour was great, the trip to the middle of the world as well. Both I can recommend. Always felt safe in the hostel. The food was VERY good and much cheaper than in restaurants or other hostels :) the dorm was good with a quite big locker for my big backpack. Double points to the pick up and drop off service which is the same price you pay with Uber - but the driver was super nice!

The best hostel I’ve stayed during my 5 month trip through South America. Staff is nice, facilities are good, easy to meet people, but what stands out is the food. Quality standards for breakfast and dinner are high, especially for a hostel.

None.

Unbelievably friendly English speaking staff and they willing to help you anyway they can. Beautiful breakfast, hot shower with good pressure.

Love the rooftop Love the activitied

Stayed in September 2023

Free towels, kitchen with fridge, microwave, free tea. NO free coffee but since there is a kitchen its all good :) Staff is super friendly, lots of activities. And the best thing: they have big, proper bathrooms! It’s a rather calm place, definitely the best hostel I stayed in so far. Super clean, well maintained, good Wi-Fi, fair prices, the central food market is right nearby for cheap but great breakfast and lunch! Great time and I will come back for sure once I’m back in Quito!

That's the one and only hostel for Quito! Staff is so nice and helpful, the beds are really comfy and the view from the terrace is magnificent. There's also a restaurant and bar and lots of activities for guests, but it's always quiet in the sleeping areas and that I appreciated. Was an amazing stay!!!

Stayed in August 2023

The staff were incredible here and the hostel just had a great vibe, social but not party and it has some great tours to do and good family dinners and breakfasts. It was incredibly clean as well

Stayed in September 2023

Couldn't really figure out the showers so often had to have cold ones. Also quiet hours don't start until 11pm so it's noisy if you're trying to get an early night - ear plugs helped though.

Great location, staff and food. The dinners are a great way to meet other people if solo travelling. The rooftop is great!

Stayed in September 2023

Only a small thing. In the late evening and during night it was still quite loud (music, traffic, people coming home). But I was also there at the weekend, so it might be more quiet during the week

Great rooftop terrace, nice people and staff is really helpful Various activities in the evenings, delicious breakfast and a rain shower (2nd floor)

The staff and volunteers at Community hostel really make the place. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. Alejandro and Jean host great social events. The dinners are really good and lovely rooftop. I went back 3 times.

Stayed in July 2023

the private room a bit pricey for a small room, but still comfy. the location at night isn’t very secure

really great place with nice wibes! the best staff I met during my travels

Stayed in August 2023

it’s true that the location in the historic center of Quito is sketchy, but the hostel itself is very safe.

There are too many positives to mention, but I’ll say a few. very clean and well-run. staff were friendly and helpful. I felt included and was able to meet a lot of people. the shared spaces were outstanding and events were fun. the breakfast and dinner meals were very tasty. the guacamole toast was one of the best tasting things I’ve ever eaten. it was safe and secure as well. my tour to Mindo was organized by the hostel and I enjoyed it immensely. I’ve stayed in many hostels before, and this one was one of the best. it was easy to meet people and feel comfortable. the rooftop terrace has stunning views.

Location is ideal, same for the rooftop view Very clean and practical Game night is fun
