We recently opened in August 2015 and we are the first Pod Hostel in Quito, Ecuador the story is the following:
One day I grabbed my backpack and went out to discover new routes, I met cheerful travelers like me that value life, that recognize the richness in different cultures, in city centers, in people, in history, in beliefs and in incredible landscapes…
Each step of the way I discovered the joy of being born in Ecuador, such a biodiverse country.
El Hostelito is Ecuador´s first and only Pod Hostel catering to travellers who want to experience something different, whilst having the privacy that one is looking for. In El Hostelito we base ourselves in our Cozy atmosphere, security, location and service, but most of all we want to provide the guest with an unforgettable experience.
