We´ve been 3 nights at the Casa Kanela, a small and friendly hotel where YOU can stay, when you want to explore Quito! More

Casa Kanela could not be better located on a quite, beautiful street in the center of La Mariscal, very close to lots of restaurants and transportation. The staff here was quite lovely and assisted us with navigating the Quito bus system (You can get to the airport for 25 cents with only one change!) Yes, it helps tremendously if you... More

My boyfriend and I stayed at Casa Kanela for 6 nights in April 2011. Casa Kanela was such a wonderful place to call our “home away from home” for nearly a week. The accommodations are basic and affordable (private room = $15/pp/night), but very clean. We never had a problem with the water pressure or temperature – both were perfect.... More

We had a very pleasant 3-night stay in Casa Kanela and all was as expected. Very friendly staff and the best coffee and scrambled eggs in Ecuador. Carlos and his staff were very friendly and made us feel at home. There were no surprises and we got great value for our money in a quiet and safe street just steps... More

Our bed was trying to fall to pieces. Everything would be not that bad, but my... More

Our room upstairs with a private bathroom was great. The breakfast was good (best coffee we found in town). It was a little cold there, so make sure you bring warm clothes. The staff was nice and friendly, but they do not speak English very well. More

Casa Kanela is in a great location if you are staying in the Mariscal and would still like a little piece of peace and quiet. It is situated on a very quiet road but is still only two to three blocks from all the bars and restaurants. The hostess is very helpful and polite and the breakfasts are great. The... More

Casa Kanela was a very nice place in the Mariscal Sucre section of Quito. Friendly & helpful staff. Good location in Mariscal. Mariscal section of Quito was a bit shady - but there were police all over. The small street of which it is located - Juan Rodriguez - was quiet (relatively speaking). Although there often seemed to be a... More
