Was very pleasantly surprised with Rumipamba de las Rosas. Was in town for the Inti Raymi festival and booked last minute.

The rooms were adorable. 2 double beds with a loft and 3 other beds. They were decorated tastefully and comfortably, which I find rare in Ecuador. I will agree that the water does not get very hot. I was excited to use the bath but the water was tepid. We also loved the meal we got in the restaurant. I had the sirloin which was served on a volcanic rock.

I would make the trip back just for the steak, but also for another nights stay in this unique hosteria. If you are in the area, I highly recommend it.
