I just got back from a trip to Quito 2 weeks ago and I stayed at the Jumbo Lodging hostel. I must say that the atmosphere, service and location are excellent. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend single travelers as well as families stay here. The staff are very attentive and have plenty of information to share... More

The location is within a short walk to several attractions (cathedral, shopping, churches, etc). Louis was very welcoming. He and his family cooked a very good meal. Our room was adjacent to the street (almost all are) and had some road noise. Ear plugs are provided and you will probably need them unless you live on a busy street. Louis... More

We came as a strangers and left feeling like part of the family! Louis and the family gave us the warmest of welcome. I cannot explain in words how special this place is to myself and Kimberley and we only stayed for two nights! We will be returning. Upon arrival we found ourselves in a very clean 200 year old...

We had a fantastic stay at Jumbo Lodging. The breakfast is absolutely fantastic, definitely the best we have ever had, in all our travels (Europe, Africa, North and South America). The room had a real Ecuadorian feel and the place was clean, tidy and safe. Luis and his family are fantastic hosts and they made us both feel at home... More

I have to say I was disappointed with the previous (excellent) reviews. I completely agree with the service comments. Luis and staff are lovely, helpful, the breakfast was amazing etc. But $50 is overpriced for no TV, no WiFi, not great shower and a closet like room where even the bathroom isn't contained so there's no real privacy. Compared to... More

My husband and I decided to stay here after reading the excellent reviews posted on Tripadvisor, and despite our initial skepticism (the reviews seemed too good to be true), we were really happy with the place! We stayed there for a total of 6 nights at the end of April 2011, enough to get to know the place and its... More

From meeting our taxi on the sidewalk in the rain with an umbrella, to the long drive to the bus depot in his own truck, Luis of Jumbo Lodging was the most hospitable host we've ever come across in our travels! Then there's everything in between...the welcoming offer of hot tea, the suggestion of a great restaurant we would never... More

This is my first review on Trip Advisor, and I decided to write it as my stay at Jumbo Lodging was fantastic. Luis makes such an effort for his guests and is one of the nicest people I have ever met. Whenever we needed something he went out of his way to help us and made our stay truly memorable.... More

We are currently on an extended vacation and have been on the road now for over 7 months. So when we find somewhere that offers the comfort of home, alongide immaculate hospitality and a warm welcome, we count our blessings. Luis and his family are amazing. Their B&B is clean and elegantly decorated, and is a welcome retreat from a... More
