Leider nicht erholsam trotz tollem Ausblicks.

Die Familie war wirklich sehr nett und hilfsbereit wo es nur ging. der Ausblick ist traumhaft. Die Familie war sehr herzlich und nett. Auch sehr bemüht unseren Aufenthalt schön zu gestalten. Auch das Essen in der Unterkunft war gut.

Die Lautstärke. Du hörst die Pan Amerika. Es ist sehr laut. Die Möbelstoffe, der Boden, das Bett waren dreckig. Die Bilder sind irreführend.

Absolutely stunning but you don’t want to spend there more than one night.

The view was absolutely fabulous.

There’s nothing to do around the area other walking in the woods. The road to get to the cabana was awful.

It is nice but there are many things to improve

The view is amazing and the fireplace is very nice. The hosts are very friendly and it is nice to breath clean air. Good to connect with nature! Internet is good.

Getting there is not easy and the roads are steep and very dusty. Very small shops are nearby, but no a supermarket. There were very little soap, no shampoo, no hand towel. The bathroom curtain needs to be changed, the shower needs to be cleaned as the water goes in many directions. The microwave needs the glass plate to put the cups. There was no tea towel. Blankets should be cleaned in between guests as some of them had lots of hairs from others. It rained while we were there and the water entered the room so we had to move our bags and the room curtains got super wet. We stayed 4 days and breakfast was exactly the same everyday.

gorgeous views and great value!

Spacious and homey with comfortable beds. We loved the fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the lake and volcano! The owner and staff were extremely kind and helpful.

Good

The view from the room is fantastic! Breakfast also very good. You're surrounded by nature and local communities. The cabana is cozy, comfortable and spacious. It's a nice spot to stay close to the main attractions from the area by car.

The room was super cold when we arrived, and it continued being cold despite the logs in the fireplace and an electric heater. There seems not to be any isolation at all, which is also reflected in the noise that came in (dogs barking, and cars from the main street). Maybe I was much more sensible to this since I was not feeling well that particular day. There are no keys per se, since they said that it's an indigenous community; understandable, but not for a tourist standard that needs to take care of personal belongings such as money, passport, credit cards, etc.

Lovely place

This place is so beautiful! We loved the view, the environment - nature all around, you can go for a walk right from here. Outside they have many animals to cuddle. ❤️ Our cabin had a fireplace and was very lovely and cozy. The owner and his family and staff are very kind and helpful. I would love to come back again!

Pleasant

The view was fantastic! Also the family who are running this place are very helpful. On arrival we had diner which was good. Beds are comfortable, clean sheets.

Wires and light switches hanging loose which with little effort is easy to adjust. Same as a damaged table. Put a little effort in these small things and it just gives a better look / feeling. There’s a busy road about 500m away, which will be heard in the evening / night. Same for barking dogs in the evening.

Bad

The breakfast was ok

Everything was rather dingy and poorly maintained. The wires, switches and lights were all hanging from the ceiling and none thing was sealed. The blankets and bed were quite old and dirty.

Nice views

Really beautiful view and they offer a very nice tour of the area.

The door had no lock/key. This wouldn’t be a huge issue however someone ended up pushing my door open at 1 am. It woke me up and was very frightening.

looks better than it is

the view is absolutely stunning, wifi connection was good

it’s very cold, you have a chimney inside without proper ventilation so wouldn’t recommend. also you don’t have parking, car stays in the middle of the street, they say it’s safe because it is in the middle of an indigenous community, but still didn’t feel safe.

Funky place to stay with great views as long as you are ok with rustic

The cabañas were old and funky, which was fine. The view was great. I liked the individual cabins and the spaciousness- living room with fireplace plus bedroom. Lots of nice warm blankets on the beds which was good as fire went out by midnight. I think travelers who like rustic will be happy here, and best to have some warm clothing in this area.

At 9200 foot elevation, it was quite chilly at night and the old cabin had many cracks to outside where wind came in. The woman told us they would light a fire in the fireplace at 7pm. By 8pm we were quite chilly and I went to the reception area to find out what was up. Finally the guy came and lit it- the wood was wet so it took along time to get going but by 9pm it was much more comfortable. Pillows were terrible and flat; blankets tho were nice and warm

Passable

The view from the couches in our room and the main area. The free breakfast was good.

The cabin was freezing there was no insulation , felt like the coldest night we had in a month of travelling equador. They said they would start our fire for us but then didn't, gave the smallest amount of wood. We needed extra because it was sooo hard to light it and get it hot with no kinddling and then they tried to charge us an extra $3 for more wood. Absolutely ridiculous. So sad because it is such a beautiful spot but the owners obviously have no idea how to run a successful guest house, if they learn to be more hospitable it could really thrive. The fire in the main house during dinner wasn't lit either - it was freezing I guess they were trying to save $$$ and wood! Which is ridiculous for the price we were paying. Also didn't have change for $100 even thought we paid at least $70, it was cash only and there were other guests there. Luckily some other guests had PayPal and saved our butt.

Very good

Breakfast simple and delicious, hot coffee, tea, warm bread and eggs prepared the way we liked. The room was simple and clean. The view was SPECTACULAR!

The room was quite cold at night. They brought wood for the fire, but only enough for it to burn for 30 minute. Leaving a larger supply of wood would be great!

PHENOMENAL VIEWS

The views from the cabins are PHENOMENAL! The hosts were very gracious and accommodating. And the animals (dogs, cats and even Ramon the goat) were all very friendly

It is a bit hard to find and get to being up a rough dirt road off the highway and several kms from Otavalo itself. Signage at the turns could have been better. But, despite any of that, I'd still give them a 10 and would definitely stay there again if I return to Otavalo

Beautiful view for a getaway out of the city. The bed was very comfortable. Loved the goat, pig, dogs and cats that came to visit!

The communal area was very run down and cold. The food offerings there are very limited and there are no restaurants around to get anything else.

Nice view but services need improving

Amazing view! Confortable room and comunal area. Private bedroom and bathroom. Its a family business and you share the comunal space with the family.

The road to get there is not well kept, its a dirt road. GPS location on Booking.com is not correct, I had to call them and they sent me the location through whatsapp. Rooms are cold, there is no hot water, and food menu is extremely limited.

Good stay, great view, but not sure I will be back due to no door lock, dirty sink, and dirty pillow

Breakfast was simple and good tasting. The view was spectacular! I liked how Andres came and started a fire in my room both nights 😃

Couldn’t lock door because there wasn’t one the first day, and when I did get one it was a toy lock. I had NO running water the first morning! Nada!!! The sink near the door was dirty, bathroom ledge had not been cleaned, and a pillow was very flat and dirty.
