Hotel Finlandia
I love the location of this hotel, the rooms are nice and clean, but the bathrooms need an update. The rooms don't have air conditioning, and sometimes Quito can get hot during the day. Breakfast used to be better; now it's just okay. Quantity is enough, but quality could be improved.
