Community Hostel Quito Hostel

Make sure to keep reading this. Despite our arrival issues, we did enjoy our stay. We were super annoyed to arrive and find they didn’t have our booking. I booked in April, had a printed confirmation and also re confirmed the day prior. This meant, as a husband and wife couple who booked a private room, we could not have it and got given a bunk room. We were fortunate there was a room spare, but sharing with others wasn’t ideal, particularly when we were well organised. Our $30 a night private room became $25 (for both) in a 4 person room. Which seems too expensive for the situation. That said, they offered to give us a free dinner $5. The rooms were comfy, spacious and warm. There are charging ports and cupboards. Mindful though the street is pretty noisy, the rooms near the dining room are too as people wake early for tours etc. The hostel itself was safe, with security access, coded locked door, locked drawers (you need to buy your own lock). Outside is not so safe at night. Don’t walk out after 7, get cabs everywhere and look after your belongings. That said, Community Hostel is a great place to stay. It’s a super clean hostel with private rooms as well as bunk rooms with single and shared bathrooms. There’s a lounge room and dining room. The dining room offers amazing meals at only $5 each. We had the salad with roasted vegetables and poached chicken. For the breakfast at only $3.50 it was waffles and fruit which the chef arranged beautifully.

Great hostel super good food the chef is a wizard. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. Dropped from 5 down to 2 stars only because they wouldn't give me more beer/wine after 11 so I had to go out on the street to find my own.

Probably the best hostel I've stayed in. Very comfortable beds, amazingly clean and lovely and plentiful bathrooms, great rooftop, incredible incredible happy hour specials, bar crawl was amazing. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and there is a travel agent on site. Quito is also great. It's also right next to the central market which has incredibly cheap food, fruit and juices. Just great :)

One of the best hostels I’ve been to. Good location, 10 min drive from bars but there will be a lot of people going out every night so just tag along with them and split the cost. Eduardo is a great manager and there is a wonderful staff. I went here a year ago and think about it everyday. There is a daily thing going on everyday there and the desk downstairs is extremely helpful. I took an amazing trip to the amazon and quilotoa with them. I miss you guys; (

There's always something going on at Community. The staff are friendly and incredibly helpful. Be sure to sign up for a delicious dinner or go on the Pub Crawl and make lots of new friends. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, and a place to lock up and charge your electronics. Community bathrooms are cleaned twice daily.
