The Space:
This 700-square-foot (65 m²) loft spans two floors inside a restored building known as Casa Exterior, with one bedroom and two bathrooms sleeping up to three guests. The bedroom is dressed with a queen bed and its own ensuite bathroom, while the living area adds a sofa bed and a second bathroom — a flexible setup for a couple or a small family. The kitchen is fully equipped with a refrigerator, oven, stove, microwave, coffee maker, blender and toaster, alongside a dining table and BBQ essentials for cooking in. Step out to the private terrace for city and mountain views over Quito's rooftops, a favorite spot to take in the Historic Center below.
Guest Access:
You'll have full access to the entire apartment, as well as the property's shared amenities and common areas.
The building is secured with a security door, and our host greets guests in person on arrival — we'll coordinate your arrival time with you a few days ahead of your stay.
The Neighborhood:
San Juan, in Quito's Historic Center, is a family-friendly, walkable neighborhood with a distinctly local, touristic feel — cafés, bakeries and family-run shops line the streets, alongside artisan crafts stalls and easy access to the area's museums and the landmark Basílica del Voto Nacional. It's a comfortable base for exploring one of South America's best-preserved colonial centers on foot.
Getting Around:
Quito's Mariscal Sucre International Airport (UIO) sits outside the city in Tababela, roughly 35-45 minutes from the Historic Center by car — we recommend confirming exact timing with us closer to your trip, since this isn't a live route calculation. The neighborhood itself is highly walkable, with museums, cafés and shops all within easy reach on foot.
