Lili’s room

Fourteen rooms — or rather, one carefully kept room with a private bathroom, patio, and outdoor dining terrace — make up Lili's Room on De las Viñas in Quito's residential east slopes. The address sits well clear of the Old Town crowds yet within practical reach of La Floresta's cafés and galleries.

The unit comes with a full kitchenware set, refrigerator, and a dining table inside plus al fresco seating outside — practical for guests who prefer market runs over restaurant bills. A flat-screen TV with streaming service and free parking round out the self-catering setup.

Quito's altitude at 2,850 metres catches most visitors off guard; the quieter residential pace here aids acclimatisation. A 9.6 rating across 16 reviews points to consistent upkeep from a hands-on host.
