Quite cold during the night, should have better heating

New and clean

Incredible location, with a beautiful view of Chimborazo. The staff was helpful and the food was good.

The portion sizes for breakfast and dinner are tiny - especially when you’ve been hiking all day!! Also if you want lunch you had to pre-reserve it! Also the WiFi is quite unreliable. Even when the electrics are on the router is quite temperamental with when it works and doesn’t work. There was only a tiny bit of filtered water when we were there and advised we could buy some. Seeing as this was one of the more expensive places we have stayed we would have expected filtered water to be available.

The location was amazing and the setting. Waking up to the view of the volcano from bed will be a core memory for our trip to Ecuador. It’s easy to get to from Riobamba and feels like you are completely in nature. We did two amazing walks, one was a big loop from the lodge and the other we got the bus up to the Refugio Carrell and walked all the way back to the lodge. Both stunning. The llamas on site add to the feel of everything too. Having a beer whilst watching the sunset over the volcano was incredible.

In winter, be sure to bring some extra blankets or a beany. The glamping tent could have some more basics such as mugs. There a water cooker there and no mugs. The heater could also be a bit more powerful.

We stayed in the glamping tent which had amazing views over Chimborazo volcano. We stayed in August so very cold overnight. It was an awesome unique experience. Nearby small village has some authentic homes, great to have a look around.

Despite the extra blankets and a heater, the dome was cold. Bring extra layers!

Excellent view of Chimborazo. Easy to get there from Ambato. Beautiful surroundings. Friendly staff.

It had everything we needed and were expecting of it.

Breakfast was plain. Little food.

Everything was great. From staff to stay.

Stayed in December 2023

Be sure to bring snacks since food options are limited, also the tends are a bit chilly if you are not used to the camping experience.

Yeah, it is a great option to stay close to the volcano. Nice view and very calm.

Needs some curtains in the windows, mirror and hand towel in the bathroom.

Location, trecks right on the other side of the road, very welcoming and familiar vibe, exceptional view on the chimborazo!

Better parking m/signage would be stellar and a walking path to the cabins

Diego was very kind and they were flexible with our arrival time. The stay was beautiful and although under construction in some parts, we really enjoyed how relaxing it was

Not a con at all but do bring lots of layers for the cold and make sure you have cash for the room and dinner. Booking.com says it accepts credit cards but he only takes cash!

The location of this property can’t be beat! The sign for the property is actually Casa Condor, which I believe is the main house of the property. We stayed in a bubble tent, which was cool, but also literally it’s freezing once the sun goes down. We moved the heater to the middle of the room and slept with our heads at the heater and once we got some body heat between us, we slept great. My tip would be to book the hobbit house-it’s the one with the grass roof!!-we borrowed a blanket from there and it was so toasty in there with no heat at all! The food was simple but good and like someone else commented it’s the best WiFi in Ecuador 😅

The shower seems to take really long until hot water, so I decided for the cold option after ~8 minutes.

The view is amazing, you have your own shower in the tent and a heater and extra blankets in case it gets very cold. The blankets are very good so that also ~0° shouldn't bother you :) It includes breakfast with tea, eggs and cereals.

Excellent cozy environment breakfast was made when ordered Fresh,location cannot expect a better view of the mountains. Great weather overall 10.

There is no heating, so it gets cold inside. With four people in a cottage, one had to sleep on the floor (on a matrace). The food portions at dinner could be bigger. A little expensive and payments only in cash.

The location is fantastic, with a view of the Chimborazo from the front door. The hosts are very friendly and helpful.

The location is fantastic and very comfortable

Nothing.

The view and hospitality were excellent, and it's easy to get to by bus from Riobamba.

The room was not 100% ready (clean) when we arrived.

The view & the tent

Stayed in June 2023

The view is priceless if you have the luck of a blue sky. Brian is a very friendly host and since this is a community runned basecamp I can online recommend it. Diner was available for a fair price.

Paradise of a mountain lover

The window could be more clear so the view is better to see from the inside. Some water came inside the glamping dome when it was raining (very hard).

There was tea and a heater available to warm up. The bed was very comfortable and cosy. Very quiet surrounding. Easy to arrive by bus from Riobamba.

Make sure you have some warm cloth, it's basically a tent with a little heating (but very compfy bed)

Great experience. Great local food (need to order extra)

no dinner option

view and nature

Stayed in July 2022

No qualified staff Lack of cleanness at room (ants, bugs) A poor dog sleeping outside our room Bad coordination for payments (we had to wait an hour to confirm payment info) Rooms extremely cold

The soup at dinner

Stayed in December 2024

- We had to boil water to have drinking water as their jug was empty for 3 days - no option to buy lunch ( and there is no restaurant around so bring a lot of food before you go - smelly shower drain but I fixed it by putting the plunger on top of it - very small diner portion (we had to ask for more food as we were going to bed hungry)

Very good location, beautiful property. Perfect place to hike around Chimborazo, easily accessible by bus from riobamba.

The surroundings are not well maintained. A fireplace could have been added to the chozas, at night time it gets really cold and the heater is useless.

The view is amazing. The location of the camp is excellent.
