The Magic Bean is an eclectic hostel, restaurant, and nightclub. The rooms are less fancy than some hotels, and you share a bathroom at the end of the hall. But if you mainly use a room to sleep, the value is tremendous. The restaurant is frequented by expatriates, employees of foreign corporations stationed in Quito, professors, students, and musicians.
