I enjoyed staying at Patricio's Suite,. Patricio and his family are very kind and wonderful people. She was always on the lookout for everything. The place has a beautiful view of the city, very nice, well kept, clean and very comfortable. Very close to everything, with many restaurants and locals around. I'm sure I'll be back on my next visit to Loja. Highly recommended. Thank you very much Patricio.

I had a wonderful experience at Pedro's Airbnb. From the first moment, his attention was exceptional, he was always available and responded to all my messages quickly. The apartment was spotless, very clean and well maintained. In addition, the decor was cozy, which made me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. The instructions for using the place were clear and very detailed, which made my stay much easier. The neighborhood is very quiet and safe, perfect for rest and enjoy the area. Everything was very nice, definitely a place where I would like to stay again if I had the chance. The only thing I could mention is that the garage was not available for my vehicle, as the neighbors left their cars outside and there was no way to store it. However, this didn't affect my overall experience much, as everything else was great. In short, it is a highly recommended place, with impeccable service, I would definitely come back

The location is excellent, only a few blocks from shopping, restaurants, and tourist attractions. Despite it's central location, the street is quiet. The apartment looks just like the pictures. There was a musty smell in the bathroom, but if you open the balcony door, it clears up. When the door is open you can sit on the sofa and enjoy the view. The host was friendly and responsive. This apartment is definitely worth the price.
