Hosteria Quinta Montaña

Loja


City address; countrified experience – 2km north of the bus terminal, serene Hosteria Quinta Montaña's well-kept cabins skitter down a steep hillside. Grounds include a nice restaurant, a cold-water pool and a sauna. Swinging on a hammock might be commonplace in the jungle but in Loja, doing so with such a lush view is the preserve of guests staying here.
