ACCOMMODATION
We offer the following:

Homestay. Living with a family provides students with a direct contact with the people and the language, and thereby achieves a more efficient cultural interchange. All our families provide a comfortable bedroom with private bathroom and three meals a day: Breakfast, Lunch and Supper, as well as hand laundry service.
Our families live close to the School: within 30 minutes walking distance or 10 minutes by bus. The advantages of living with a family are numerous: not only is the learning process quicker, but students have the opportunity of learning about Ecuadorian customs and traditions.
Hostels. Provide guaranteed security, cleanliness and comfort. Private departments are also available near the school.
