Ulasan Boutique Hotel Casa Foch

I'd selected this hotel based on location and reviews. It's very close to Foch Square (Gringo Town) which has many bars and restaurants along with great bus links into the Old Town and further North. As a mature lady travelling alone it was important for me to be somewhere I felt comfortable walking around alone, especially in the evening when going out for dinner. It's an easy walk to the handicraft market as well. I used Uber and taxis booked via *********** to to and thro to the airport but used the local buses to go into Old Town, admittedly getting off at the wrong stop beforehand as I couldn't see where we were. Top Tip is to count the amount of stops on the map so that you know to fight your way to the bus door in time to get off. The lads who ran Casa Foch were lovely. They probably thought I was a bit batty but they looked after me really well, confirming the taxi drivers were bona fida, doing my laundry, pointing me in the right direction and storing my case for me as I packed a smaller bag to take with me to Galapagos and Mindo. My room was a really good size, little bit damp / run down but reminded me of home! Super en suite and a balcony area to sit out in. Nice breakfast of fruit, scrambled eggs and toast. Brits & Irish - take your own tea bags! The house itself has a locked front gate onto the street. The only time I was a little uncomfortable was when I strayed onto a side road at night and a couple of chaps approached, presumably asking for money but nothing you wouldn't get in any city. I just crossed the road and carried on back towards the light. In short, nothing was too much trouble for the managers and I recommend it to other travellers.
