I could not have asked for a better place to stay during my first two weeks in Quito. Mercedes, her sister Pilar and all staff are wonderful! Anything I needed they helped me with, including going to the mall and getting a local cell phone. I will be in Quito until December and I know I will be going back frequently to visit. If you like to meet people from all over and be in a familiar environment, Casa Valladolid is the place to go!
