Nothing - perfect :)

Maria & her husband Walter are very kind, generous people. Maria prepared my breakfast & dinner each day & ensured that everything was to my liking. They also run a tienda if you are short of needed supplies or medicines. My single room was large & well equipped. The WiFi never dropped & was very strong. Backpacker’s is very close to a trail to quilotoa. Alternatively, a bus departs at 9 am & stops directly in front of backpacker’s. I highly recommend Backpacker’s hostel. It’s an excellent value with love and care mixed in.
Everything was perfect!

They do amazing cooking, they take care about you, they give you everything what you need! We would come again everytime. We really appreciated the stay! Thank you so much maria & walter!

The owners are the nicest people in the world who will give you an authentic experience. It was their dream to open a hostal and meet other people with other cultures, so they did this at an older age and combine 4 jobs to pay for it...
The facilities are basic but all clean and worthwile the price. Our breakfast was one of the best so far in Ecuador. The lunch box we asked was even more amazing (a big box with fried rice, omelet, vegetables,...).
There is a little rooftop terrace where you can enjoy the sun and the view over the mountains.

If you want a local experience with super friendly hosts then this is the place to stay! Maria and Walter make you feel like part of the family and are always available for any help you might need. It has only been a month and half they opened the hostal and are open to ideas to be the best they can be.

The room was a lovely, spacious and comfortable so was great value for money. The main attraction of this hostel however and what sets it apart from other hostels is the people who work there. They will make an incredible effort to make you feel welcome and part of their wonderful family. Maria is also an excellent cook so you will receive a lovely breakfast and dinner and will make you a packed lunch for the next day on request. I couldn’t recommend this hostel more to anyone looking for an authentic and wholesome stay with some lovely people.

Maria was a very welcoming hostess, her family is very friendly and gives you a nice sense of comfort. Food is simple and traditional but good. Free water available to fill your bottle. Good value in Chugchilan for a private room. The room is quite spacious and the beds and pillows very comfortable. Plenty of blankets to keep you warm. They're also constructing a nice terrace with a good view.
Water in the shower could be warmer (not cold by any means but it is one of those instant electric showers so it is to be expected).

Maria and Walter were the kindest hosts you could ask for. They did everything within their power to make you feel welcome and comfortable.
If you have specific wishes for breakfast or dinner, they will see to it that your wishes are met. On top of that, it was delicious!
The room was basic, but great value for your money.
There is a rooftop terrace (under construction), with a nice view over the city. Additionally they have a shop in which you can buy pretty much anything.
