“Pleasant, comfortable hostel, quiet at night, plenty of warm blankets, food exquisito, staff kind.”
+Emerson, the host went out of his way to accommodate us, and Carlos and Katy (his staff) provided everything we needed--vegan (and delicious) meals using local ingredients. The beds were comfortable and had plenty of blankets to defeat the mountain chill. I loved the paintings everywhere. The place is rustic, but comfortable and well-maintained. Even though we are not young mountaineers, we were comfortable and happy there. Even though the place is right next to the road, it is quiet. The bathroom is down the hall, but it is very clean, and there were no other guests that night.
−It would have been nice to know the bathroom was down the hall before we booked, but it isn't a deal-breaker.

“Nice little place in a good location for the climb and a nice and helpful owner”
+Perfect place if you want to hike up to Mount Imbabura! The host Emerson is great & can give you a lot of advice on climbing the mountain. He also arranged a truck to take me to the trailhead in the early morning so I wouldn’t have to waste my energy before the actual hike starts. There is also a little restaurant and the food is excellent and not too expensive!

“Best Imbabura Hostel”
+Best hostel if you want to climb Imbabura with personally the best owner I have met in Ecuador, Emerson. He is really interested to get to know you and help you with anything you need, also works as a guide for the Imbabura at a reasonable price. We even did a calesthenics workout together and his two dogs are super friendly and cute, can really recommend 10/10. Also a great kitchen and a beautiful view in the outside area :)

“Exceptional”
+I had an excellent stay at Refugio Terra Esperanza. Emerson was so helpful in answering all my questions. Excellent services. He cooked me breakfast for $3 and helped me call a taxi to Cumbre Imbabura (which I highly recommend). The place itself is rustic, but charming and cozy. It has great views of Imbabura and Cayambe, so definitely try to wake up early for that. Overall, I would highly recommend this refugio to anyone traveling here. Emerson is a great host and I could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you Emerson!
−Nothing! It was perfect.
