“What struck me is its embrace of Quito's spirit-the baroque decor, the courtyard, all just steps from San Francisco Square; it's a place steeped in local charm. The option of cultural tours and the readily available airport shuttle, I think, are thoughtful touches for both leisure and business travelers.”
