STILL
DECIDING?
Staying
here
should
be
a
priority!
This
place
is
a
hotel,
a
museum,
a
botanical
garden,
a
historical
landmark,
a
scenic
view,
an
archive,
a
great
dining
experience,
and
overall
a
wonderful
experience.
.
IT'S
ENDLESS
Literally,
around
every
corner
there
is
something
new
to
discover
and
appreciate.
.
ANTIQUES
AND
COLLECTIBLES
There
are
paintings,
sculptures,
clocks,
typewriters,
sewing
machines,
rare
Catholic
historical
pieces
dating
back
to
the
17th
century,
and
MUCH
more!
.
BOTANICAL
GARDENS
The
exterior
is
covered
with
flora
that
are
meticulously
maintained
and
is
a
striking
first
impression.
The
word
"wow!"
will
enter
your
thoughts
over-and-over
as
you
walk
toward
the
reception
area
--
and
it
has
just
begun.
The
different
types
of
gardens,
the
colors,
the
variety
of
plants,
and
how
incredibly
healthy
and
stunningly
beautiful
they
are
will
most
certainly
amaze
even
those
who
are
far
from
being
a
green
thumb.
.
INTERIOR
DESIGN
Once
inside,
what
I
will
call
the
"wow
factor"
picks
up
where
you
left
off.
Because
the
campus
dates
back
to
circa
1774,
the
architecture
and
design
is
out
of
this
century,
and
it
is
more
than
obvious.
The
masonry,
the
woodwork,
the
flooring,
the
walls,
everything
works
together
to
transport
you
into
an
age
that
has
long
since
passed.
.
TALLEST
MOUNTAIN
IN
THE
WORLD
If
it's
not
the
rainy
season
(+/-
November
to
April),
you
will
be
astounded
by
perhaps
the
most
obvious
feature
of
the
hotel,
and
that
is
the
tallest
mountain
in
the
world
--
"IF"
you
measure
from
the
center
of
the
Earth.
There
is
no
escaping
the
view
of
Chimborazo,
which
is
directly
behind
the
facility
and
is
essentially
the
Mt.
Fuji
of
the
Andes
mountains.
.
RURAL
FEELING
NEAR
THE
BIG
CITY
Hosteria
La
Andaluza
is
far
enough
from
Riobamba,
Ecuador
that
you
do
not
experience
the
big
city
atmosphere,
save
the
Pan-American
highway
behind
the
hotel.
The
vast
green
fields
of
varied
hues,
the
old
Spanish
style
ranches
in
the
distance,
the
classic
Latin
American
court
yards,
and
cobblestone
driveway
and
walkways
set
the
tone
for
a
wonderful
visual
experience.
.
OBJECTIVE
OPINION
There
should
be
no
question
as
to
whether
you
should
consider
staying
here.
After
reading
this
objective
description
of
fact,
if
you're
not
intrigued,
then
yes,
stay
somewhere
else
because
it's
history,
wonder
and
beauty
will
all
be
wasted.
