And how you choose this \u201chome\u201d is worth considering.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the following blog, we\u2019ll give you a few tips on how to choose the best hostel in Ecuador during your visit.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Should I choose hostels or an Airbnb?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In Ecuador\u2019s major cities, and even in some of the smaller ones, you\u2019ll find numerous Airbnb options. In fact, many of the options you\u2019ll find on Airbnb are actually hostels and can also be found on websites like booking.com and hostelworld.com.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We suggest you check out Airbnbs as part of your search and compare your finds using the same parameters used below to choose the best hostel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Just keep in mind that, oftentimes, Airbnbs are private and you lose the element of community that is more easily found at hostels. On the plus side, though, you might get a whole apartment to yourself, including access to a kitchen!<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><strong>Know thyself: Set your priorities<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Before opening a million tabs on your browser and quickly descending into despair because of all the hostel options, <\/span><b>define your priorities.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Organize the following list in order of importance:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Cost<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Comfort<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Location\/convenience<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Safety<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Noise<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Socializing<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This simple exercise helps you determine how to undertake your search for the best hostel in Ecuador. If cost is your top priority, and your maximum per night is $8, you\u2019ll quickly be able to filter through the options available, focusing only on those that appear to match your preferences.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Once you know your priorities (and these may vary depending on each destination and the activities you want to do, as well as your emotional and physical state), you can always refer to them to make sure you\u2019re choose the hostel best suited for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Cost<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ecuador is a budget-friendly destination and you\u2019ll find many hostels in the major cities, as well as in more remote areas, that offer dorm beds starting at $6 and going up to $12 and $14, per night.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you prefer your own room, you might be looking at $14-$25 a night. Make sure to search on Airbnb since you may find better deals there for private rooms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hostels usually charge per person, though some may charge depending on the type of room (Single, Double). And if you\u2019re outside a city and prefer to camp, you might be surprised to find campgrounds charging $6+ per night, just to pitch your tent. In this case, it might make more sense to pay for a dorm bed than to camp.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Location<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Location is everything when choosing the best hostel in Ecuador. Particularly in the bigger cities, like Quito and Guayaquil, location determines what activities you\u2019ll do, the quality of food you\u2019ll find, and how safe you\u2019ll feel while exploring the city.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It\u2019s useful to know some of the best and worst neighborhoods in town, but that information is hard to come by before your trip unless you have a local friend.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In Quito, there are a couple of neighborhoods with a high density of hostels that supposedly offer the best location. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Best neighborhoods for hostels in Quito<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><b>San Blas<\/b><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Located in the Old Town, San Blas offers tourists spectacular views of the city. Old Town sites are nearby so if you prefer to walk, this might be a good spot to look for a hostel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>La Tola<\/b><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Also in the historic center, La Tola is one cool neighborhood. However, it has a little bit of a reputation regarding safety concerns. This is also true in San Blas, mind you, so just ensure you take safety precautions when staying in these areas. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>La Mariscal<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(between the streets 6 de diciembre and Avenida Amazonas)\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> You\u2019ll find a ton of hostels, restaurants, bars and discotheques in La Mariscal. Noise might be an issue at a hostel here, but if you\u2019re out to party or just make a bunch of friends, you\u2019ll enjoy staying in this neighborhood. It\u2019s also right on the Ecovia line so it\u2019s cheap and easy to get around the city.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Additional neighborhoods that are less touristy, and therefore don\u2019t offer as many hostel options, but are still cool spots to call homebase include:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Gu\u00e1pulo <\/b><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Located on Quito\u2019s eastern slope, this bohemian neighborhood overlooks the valleys below. It\u2019s a lovely area to explore on foot (though it involves a lot of stairs and you\u2019ll likely be out of breath the whole time), and the views are spectacular. Don\u2019t miss the graffiti as you head down the hill!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Gonz\u00e1lez Su\u00e1rez <\/b><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Just above Gu\u00e1pulo, Gonz\u00e1lez Su\u00e1rez is the name of the road as well as the neighborhood. It\u2019s an upscale residential area with coffee shops, a couple of bars and restaurants and, again, some incredible views facing the west and Quito\u2019s surrounding valleys. There aren\u2019t many hostels here so you might want to search on Airbnb.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Rep\u00fablica de El Salvador <\/b><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Closer to the heart of the city, this avenue and its surrounding neighborhood are also upscale and residential. There are many bars and restaurants to choose from here, and Parque La Carolina is nearby for the joggers among you. Again, make sure to check out Airbnb options since there aren\u2019t many hostels. There are a few hotels, but they can be quite pricey.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Breakfast<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cBreakfast included\u201d is always a major perk when you\u2019re choosing the best hostel. Many places that offer hardy, delicious breakfasts get the best reviews. People love breakfast, it\u2019s a fact of life!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In Ecuador, though, you should consider how much \u201cbreakfast included\u201d is really worth to you, especially since local Ecuadorian breakfasts, found on nearly every street corner, only cost $2. They include bread, cheese<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, eggs, freshly squeezed juice, instant coffee, and sometimes even a little fruit. Good deal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">That said, some hostels have more tourist-friendly options like yogurt and granola, pancakes, good coffee (not instant) and other tasty things. When you read through the reviews, keep your eyes peeled for the word \u201cbreakfast\u201d, but remember that there are cheap options just around the corner if your choice hostel <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">doesn\u2019t<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> include breakfast.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Communal area<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Solo travel is getting more and more popular every year. Everyone is all independent, self-sufficient and emo, reading their Kindles at coffee shops and gaining renewed perspective through their solo adventures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It\u2019s almost a rite of passage these days and it\u2019s important, to say the least, but there comes a time during your solo travels when you\u2019ll want some company, a few laughs, and people to party with. In fact, we humans are wired to almost always prefer social situations over solitude.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We\u2019re gregarious little creatures and, for that reason, we usually need spaces that facilitate our gregarious nature.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When you\u2019re choosing a hostel, look for reviews and keywords that include \u201csocial area\u201d or \u201dcommunal area\u201d. In Ecuador, if you find a combination of \u201croof terrace\u201d + \u201ccommunal area\u201d, you\u2019ve hit the jackpot. Look no further, even if there\u2019s no hot water.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In all seriousness, hostels that offer social spaces are just more comfortable and warmer, overall. Especially if you\u2019re staying in the dorm, it\u2019s sometimes nice to have a second space that has chairs and where you won\u2019t be invading someone else\u2019s privacy (or listening to them snore in the bunk above).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Find a hostel that is described as a \u201chome away from home\u201d in its reviews. You won\u2019t regret it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Friendly, helpful staff<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Somewhat related to the previous point, finding a hostel known for its staff is another major plus. <\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Remember that earlier comment about knowing which neighborhoods are the safest (or coolest)? That\u2019s where helpful staff come in! They can recommend places to eat, local sights, activities in and outside of the city, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wanderbusecuador.com\/solo-female-travel-in-ecuador-is-it-safe\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">security tips for women<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (or men), and more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Friendly staff makes the space warmer and more welcoming, so if you see this commented in reviews, take note of it. It may not be top priority for you, but is a factor to consider as you choose the best hostel in Ecuador. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Lockers and storage<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Depending on what you might be planning during your trip, access to a locker, safe, or really any type of reliable storage option can be useful. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Perhaps you don\u2019t feel like lugging all your possessions with you while you visit the Amazon rainforest (warning: electronics <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">will<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> get damaged due to high humidity). Some hostels will take care of your things, oftentimes under lock and key, until you get back. It\u2019s beneficial to them as well, since it guarantees you\u2019ll come stay for at least another night.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Even if you\u2019re just exploring the same city, having a locker to leave your passport, laptop and other valuable possessions gives you one less thing to worry about during your trip, especially if you\u2019re bunking with strangers in a dorm room!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Checkout times<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hostels that offer flexible, or later than average, check out times are more lovable. They understand how exhausting it can be to pack and unpack and feel homeless, even though travel is liberating in so many other ways.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">So if you\u2019ve boiled your options down to two or three best hostels, checkout their checkout times and make your final decision based on that.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Review reviews<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Reviews have revolutionized the online shopping experience and are there to help you make better purchasing decisions. Don\u2019t ignore them, but also know when to take them seriously.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When you\u2019re not sure about a hostel, make sure to check them out on Tripadvisor.com and also look at their reviews on their Facebook page. (In case you didn\u2019t already know, Facebook is very popular in Ecuador. Most businesses just set up a Facebook page instead of creating a website. Use this tool!)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If a hostel only has a handful of reviews, it might not make sense to base your decision off of them. But, the fact that they only have a few reviews is already a warning sign, unless you\u2019re headed to a remote region of the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Wifi<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This almost didn\u2019t make the cut because, seriously, what hostel in this current hostile (hehe) and competitive business climate<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> doesn\u2019t have wifi?! <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">That\u2019s unheard of.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Unfortunately, when it comes to choosing the best hostel in Ecuador, free wifi is something to consider. Just make sure it\u2019s mentioned somewhere in the amenities list and, if it\u2019s not, move on. Humans can\u2019t live without wifi. You might actually die. And that doesn\u2019t sound like a vacation to me.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Are you ready to start your search for the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">best<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> hostel in Ecuador?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Check out some of our other blogs, which usually list our recommended hostels at each destination, like Cuenca, Monta\u00f1ita, Quito and more. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Otherwise, visit one of the following websites and, remember, make sure you have your priorities straight!<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Booking.com <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hostelworld.com<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tripadvisor.com<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Maps.google.com Search for \u201chostels in Ecuador\u201d or replace Ecuador with the name of a city<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Airbnb.com<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you return from a trip and recall your experiences, you\u2019ll realize that your take on a certain place or city depends, in large part, on the hostel where you stayed.
