Whether you’re a solo adventurer or part of a group, this is the place to meet people from all over the world. Grab a seat at our communal tables, join one of our nightly activities, or simply hang out on the rooftop—your next travel buddy is waiting :)

✨ Why Stay With Us?

🎉 Built for Connection
Our hostel is designed to bring people together. With multiple, large shared spaces, daily social events and happy hour, and a warm, inclusive atmosphere, you’ll feel part of the Community from the moment you check in. From salsa classes and language exchanges to karaoke nights and family-style dinners, there’s something happening every night to help you meet and mingle.

💻 The Only Hostel in Quito with a Coworking Space
Designed with digital nomads in mind, our dedicated coworking area gives you a comfortable, inspiring place to work, meet others, and stay productive. Fast Wi-Fi, great coffee, and a community of like-minded travelers—what more do you need?

🤝 More Than a Hostel — A Built-In Family
What makes us different is our people. Our staff, volunteers, and guests create a welcoming, inclusive environment where it’s easy to connect. We regularly organize activities around Quito—from exploring hidden gems to nights out, cultural experiences, and spontaneous adventures together.

🛏 Newly Renovated for Comfort & Privacy (2025)
After major renovations in 2025, we’ve reimagined the hostel experience—earning recognition as the most improved hostel in Ecuador. Our dorms now feature private cubicle-style beds with blackout privacy curtains for extra comfort and privacy, oversized secure lockers for all your belongings, hot rainfall showers, and thoughtfully upgraded spaces throughout the property. Everything is designed to help you rest better and feel at home.

🍽 Family-Style Meals, Every Day
Our in-house chefs prepare homemade breakfasts and dinners daily, with rotating menus that are hearty, flavorful, and affordable. You’ll always find vegetarian and vegan options—and always leave the table full and happy. Prefer to eat out? We’re happy to share our local favorites.

🌿 Travel Planning On-Site
Need help planning your next adventure? Our in-house agency, Community Adventures Ecuador, can help you organize everything from last-minute Galápagos trips to day tours to Cotopaxi, Mindo, Otavalo, Quilotoa, and more.

🍹 Rooftop Bar with a View
Unwind with a drink or coffee on our rooftop, where the views of Quito are as good as the company. We offer exclusive food and drink deals for guests, and the vibe is unbeatable—especially at sunset.

📍 Best Location in Quito
We’re located in the Historic Center, steps from iconic sites like the Basilica, La Ronda, Central Market, and more. You can explore them all on our Free Walking Tour Ecuador—a fun, informative intro to the city led by our amazing local guides.

🎭 Weekly Activities to Bring You Together:
