Reviews of Hostal Posada del Maple

It's a very nice and comfy hostal at a great location in the city. The owner is super friendly, helpful and also speaks English. It got all you need to have a great stay in Quito.

Honestly, there was nothing that I didn't like

Darwin was extremely accommodating!! I had a medical emergency and he went out of his way to help me. As a solo traveler this was so important. Room was comfy and I felt safe the whole time.

Darwin (the manager) was super helpful. Super friendly. Good recommendations from the staff. Highly recommend! Best hostel I stayed at in my whole journey.

The wifi was reliable. Bed was comfortable. There was hot water in the shower and the sink. The host stayed up late to accommodate my very late check-in. Free tea, water, and coffee at any time. There was a working TV in the room. They have an outdoor workspace with tables, chairs, and many books to read.

The bed was big, but the room was small. Not much space within it to move around the bed. The shower was small also. And the hot water was very low pressure; had to combine it with extremely cold water to get a decent amount of water pressure from the showerhead. The floor and the bed were dirty. Other people's hair were all over the place. I don't recommend the on-site laundry. Cheaper lavanderías nearby. Even though the host offers sim cards, I don't recommend getting one from the hotel. There is an official Claro store within walking distance — go there. My clothes came back with dried detergent on them and I found cheaper options outside of, but not far, from the hotel. There are no scenic views from the hotel. In fact, the only views from my windows were of the other doors leading to other bedrooms. My biggest complaint is that THE WALLS ARE EXTREMELY THIN. My first night there, I heard one of my neighbor's cell phone vibrating on a desk or countertop. Not actually ringing—just vibrating. Just as clearly as if it were in my own room. On another night I heard people in the upstairs portion of the house having sex. I could tell she had an orgasm. I heard all of it. All in all, not a bad place for a few nights, but there are other, cheaper, better options nearby.

Excellent location on a small street full of green trees, safe neighbourhood,with a lot of cheap eateries, bars restaurants at walking distance, where you can have a full breakfast or lunch menu for 2,50 USD.

The hostel system in Quito is always great for the price. Darwin and his wife are very helpful and the room was clean and quiet- as long as the other guests were quiet! I stayed here years ago, and while like all of us it has shown some wear - the core of the facility is still nice. No breakfast or food here, but so many great places within walking distance it was perfect.

There's some building in the neighborhood whose alarm goes off all day and night. Not the fault of the hostel, but it should be addressed for all the hostels in this region.

Nice place and a great location for the price.

It doesn't have a parking area

Didnt have breakfast

The parking was located in an destoyed and unsecured building

A place to return to.

Great location, helpful and friendly owner, great restaurants nearby

Very pretty place, nice and quiet

I was surprised that breakfast wasn't included. Also there was hair on the bedspread and no lock on my balcony door.

You should definitely consider staying at this hotel when in Quito. It's centrally located on perhaps the most charming street in the city, lined with old plane trees. The atmosphere is charming, artsy, and peaceful, almost like a homestay. The patio is fantastic, adorned with numerous potted plants. The rooms are cozy and spotlessly clean. The staff is absolutely fantastic, always ready to help. Plus, they serve a nice breakfast! Highly recommended!!

Nothing! Absolutely perfect stay, close to everything. Missing this place dearly!

Friendly host

This hotel has become my go-to whenever I'm in Quito – a home away from home! It's situated in a very safe and easily accessible location on a charming street adorned with old Platan trees. The rooms are impeccably clean, and what I love most is the artistic vibe throughout the hotel. Every room and common space is beautifully decorated, reflecting the owners' heartfelt effort to create a cozy and aesthetically pleasing atmosphere. I highly recommend it and will definitely return.

Nothing

I've stayed at Posada del Maple three times during my travels in Ecuador. It's an absolutely lovely hotel, close to everything, in a very safe and quiet location. The rooms are spotlessly clean, with hot water, beautiful artsy interiors, and comfortable beds. Free drinking water. Good breakfast. Occasionally, you can catch sight of hummingbirds from the terrace of your room. The staff is incredibly helpful and always ready to assist.

I liked everything

it is walking distance to some clubs in the area.

booked a room with 2 beds. we got a room with one bed. we arrived around midnight.

The hostel was in a good and safe location. Hot running water in the shower.

The room was cold and damp. It was freezing in the night. Luckily I had a hot-water bottle with me, but unfortunately on new year eve they locked the kitchen so I was unable to make boiling water, they knew I needed it, because I had a cold. In the bathroom was mold. At first the owners were very friendly, but as soon as they realized I won't book a tour, the friendly attitude changed unfortunately.
