Minka Hostel

"The staff was very nice, super helpful which was amazing as she gave us a lot of tips. The room was spacious!"

"The location is not the best"

"Great location, and still super quiet. The staff was super helpful in getting us to the airport super early in the morning."

"Aucun."

"The room was very spacious and clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful with finding attractions and giving recommendations."

"It can get noisy sometimes from the outside. The mattress was a bit tough to my liking"

"This place is awesome! First, the owners are super kind and helpful they make you feel like you’re home. Anytime we had questions they were always there to help us and guide us. They helped us book a taxi from the airport and gave us information and a map of the city to help us get navigated. We booked one of the private rooms and it was great! The room was really spacious with a big bed. The bathroom was also big with warm water which was a plus. We loved how quiet the hostel was at night because sleep is important for us when traveling. They also provided breakfast with coffee, juice, eggs and toast with ham and cheese. They provide tours if you want to go places and will give you information on where to go. The location is also SUPER SAFE. There’s a great market like a minute away with lots of fruits and medicinal things. Lots of restaurants in the area and Ubers are all super cheap. If you’re loving for a safe, welcoming place I would definitely stay here :)"

"Super nice and helpful staff that went above and beyond with support and recommendations! Amazing breakfast that was a bit different each day, spacious room with a huge bathroom, clean facilities and comfortable beds. We felt totally secure here and would have loved to stay longer. It's definitely not a party hostel but a place to chill and sleep well after a full day of exploring Quito, almost felt like visiting friends. If we're ever back in Quito, we'll be back at Minka hostel!"

"There is almost nothing to say here, only a super minor thing: the bathroom didn't have a shower curtain, so the floor was full of water after every shower."

"I stayed at Minka two separate times between my trip to the Galápagos Islands and really enjoyed it. Alexandra was very kind and helpful during both of my stays. Plus everything is automated in the hostel, and their website has great travel trips! I stayed in the standard room and the double room during my separate trips and actually preferred the smaller standard room. Both were clean and organized, but the WiFi connection in the standard room upstairs was much more stable. WiFi was extremely spotty and sometimes nonexistent in the downstairs double room. Otherwise both the private room options were great. And I felt very secure with the luggage storage when I left Quito."

"WiFi spotty in some areas. Sometimes it was very noisy in the evening/morning in the downstairs double room."

"The hosts were amazing! They helped us so much with logistics in terms of our bikes and were always happy to help and office advice. Thank you so much! Would recommend this hostel."

"They have their own taxi! Place was great. Good location."

"Alexandria and Danilo are very helpful and have created a tranquil homely environment at Minka Hostel. Danilo speaks good English and is quickly available via WhatsApp if you need any assistance. My room was clean, spacious and comfortable. I had a couple of issues with the shower drain and bedroom door lock, which Danilo fixed on the same day. He also helped me book a last-minute trip to Mindo, which I really enjoyed. Big supermarket nearby too, which is handy."

"Kitchen space could have been kept better, some guests were making the sink dirty and clogged as well as leaving dirty dishes behind. So it would be good to have posters/signage reinforcing good hygiene manners in communal spaces."
