Very nice place, very helpful host. Check in was very easy. Very prompt reply to any question we asked. Kitchen dishes and pots were very good, like new! Only thing that we would suggest is either a second heater or a more powerful one. We were a bit cold. All in all, we would rent again..very good value for the money...and good location. We were able to walk to the Independence Square, no problem!

Thank you for your kind comments. I am glad you enjoyed the location; it's a nice place with a helpful host. It was a pleasure having you stay with us, and would love to host you again.
Regarding your note about the temperature, I recommend using the fireplace in the future; it is very reliable and effectively warms the entire apartment.
Location was excellent with easy walking distance to historic district. Very clean and great communication and responsive host.
The negative was that we had a little trouble sleeping because of the noise, there was a light outside our bedroom that kept coming on all night from motion detectors and the king bed was two singles with a crack in the middle.
Having said all of this, we had a great time and would recommend it for the price.

Why they chose this property
Our Apartment "Panecillo" is a self standing apartment located in the first floor of Casa LunaLoma, a beautifully restored colonial house that has been divided into seven unique apartment/lofts, each one carrying it's own personality and special qualities. This house was built at the beginning of nineteen hundreds in one of the most traditional neighborhoods of Old Town Quito, La Loma Grande. With a colonial architecture, three internal cobblestone patios adorned with geraniums and green climbing plants around the wooden pillars, was home of the Cascante-Lopez family that lived in this house for more than fifty years.
The house “stayed sleeping” for a long time, everything was closed down. Fortunately a family member took in his hands the big undertaking of restoring the house. While rebuilding the house he and the architect were able to balance the original architecture and antiqueness and at the same time bring the new comfort to the seven apartments. The combination of stone and a variety of travertine tiles that was employed through the interior patios, along with the beautifully crafted stone water fountain that decorates the first patio, provides a warm atmosphere. The house has a superb and magnificent view of the Panecillo and Virgen of Quito, from the terrace. In a perfect night with open sky and shining stars you can have a drink in the terrace and enjoy the view. Following completion of the remodeling, preserving the old and balancing the new, bringing up the best of the artisans involved in the work, we are very pleased with the results and proud to present six wonderful apartments. Each apartment has its own personality, nicely and comfortably decorated. These belong to the family, and are ready to be placed at the service of the tourist. We want to offer our guests a flavor of past generations, and comfort, and enjoyment of the present.
