My stay at Mama Cuchara was super enjoyable with its beautiful decor and friendly staff. Although the rooms were a bit on the small side, everything was impeccably clean, and I loved the fresh breakfast every morning. The only downside was the hotel’s location; it’s not the best for walking around the area, so get ready to use rideshare apps if you wanna explore more of Quito.
