Given the traffic and taxis around Quito, being close to the airport the night before departure was very helpful. The staff is friendly and accommodating. However, the bed was not the most comfortable, the walls were not highly sound-proof, and our hot water wasn't working. We're not sorry we stayed there, but for an extended stay in Quito, consider other... More

I recently travelled to Ecuador for a short vacation. On my return journey, I had a 10 hour overnight layover at the Quito Airport and chose to stay overnight at Hostal Isla Isabela instead of hanging out at the airport for 10 hours. The hostal is located in a vintage mid-century modern house, about a four-minute drive from the airport,... More

A wonderful bed and breakfast. Very close to the airport, attentive, friendly service and a delicious breakfast. The free airport pickup at any hour of the day was wonderful. We felt very welcomed and comfortable here. More

Isla Isabela is a quaint bed-and-breakfast (hostal) for $30/night per person, including complimentary internet on a computer in the lobby and a plated breakfast each morning of eggs, fresh fruit, fresh fruit juices such as tree tomato/papaya/mango, and coffee/tea. I was impressed with the first-class staff who seem to do everything they can to make you feel at home, like... More

We decided to stay at Hostal Isla Isabela for 1 night. We arrived late on our international flight and left early the next morning for the Galapagos. Therefore, we wanted a hotel close to the airport. The airport pickup was great. A very sweet woman from the Hotel was there to pick us up even though it took forever for... More

We booked online and they were there to pick us up at the airport. The room was very clean and comfortable. The only downside was the street noise on the weekend, but I think you would get that in most places. They provided us with transport to the airport at an unreasonable early hour for our departure flight, and also... More

We've stayed several times in this hostel during our stay in Ecuador. What strikes most is the friendliness of the staff in this hostel. They will always give you a smile and help you with wathever they can. Therefore this place is highly recommended by us. The location is close to the airport and if you don't mind taking a... More

I stayed with my daughter (aged 20) for 3 nights at the beginning and end of our travels in Ecuador. We were extremely well looked after by everyone, and made to feel very much at home. The owners (everyone seems to be family) even provided 2 free airport transfers each way (my daughter and I arrived from different destinations) including... More

We stayed in Hostal Isla Isabella for 4 separate nights in beginning of May 2010. Very "homey" feel. Everyone who works there are either a child or grand child of the owner - gracious old lady that will give you hugs at any occasion. Location - close to the airport ($2 - taxi), a bit noisy during the day -... More
