Terrible
The check-in was terrible. They didn’t accept a credit card. We had to pay in cash. The hotel is old. The location the worst. Drunk people outside at night, we had to call the police. Cotacachi is awesome but this hotel is the worst

So worn out
thread bare towels with holes and bathmat, hardly any room service - trash never emptied, dust so thick you can write on tables, had to clean top of closet before setting anything down on it, really creaky floorboards, shower water wouldn't get hot for at least 8 minutes - yes, I timed it, curtains so thin that all outside light was clearly lit in the room, etc.

Good for an overnight place to crash
Loved the city and everything around it. The courtyard was beautiful but staff not friendly. The roses in the room were dead and this is what they pride themselves on!

Fresh flowers! Colonial character
Nicely maintained colonial style building. Friendly staff, abundant breakfast, fresh flowers throughout property and in room. No elevator, however, so if one flight of stairs is a problem for you, consider that. Free massage with 3 night stay - was nice.

Perfect location in Cotacachi
We were met by a very friendly staff member, and the joy of the Inn never stopped. The rooms were nice, but not perfect. The location is great; the Inn is beautiful and the staff tries very hard to make your stay enjoyable. Dinner was just so-so, so we only ate at the restaurant once. But the included breakfast was very adequate, and tasty. I would recommend this hotel during your Cotacachi visit.

lovely corner room with balconies. seemed the cleaning was timed to our breakfast coffee and fruit, or later on when shopping/exploring. staff attentive and serious hosts, hurrah for the chef and kitchen. a block from the square and cathedral, 3 blocks from leather street. a spanish speaker will get 20% off jaw-dropping low prices, quality and personal fitting and details available with next day service. the quiet courtyard was a great meeting and planning area.
