The room was "clean-ish". The beds were actually quite comfortable. Taxi service in hotel was more than adequate- had a couple folks on call. Internet worked great for us we were on the 1st floor right above the desk, though. TV would not work, phone would not work (but who doesn't have a cell phone). It was inconvienient not to be able to call the desk. ||||We told 2 different desk clerks that the phone and tv were "no funcional" and one actually said he would send someone up right away. No one came. ||||Internet says english is spoken....uhhhh no.... The day clerk stumbled through it but the night clerk didn't know a word of english in my opinion. Neither did either taxi driver but they were patient and willing to communicate through Google Translate. ||||Again the only redeeming quality was the taxi service to/from the hotel and soft beds (although a dog barked outside all night, which I realize is no fault...
Read moreThis rather strange hotel located near the Guayaquil airport isn't bad really, just not a fancy hotel stop like many of the branded hotels also close to the airport.

We were served eggs, one slice of thin toast, juice, and coffee. I'd probably not go back unless I was really desperate, but spend another $20 on a better room. On the other hand, I didn't die, so...
Read moreI pre-paid for a no-smoking executive suite with a King Bed. I knew I was going to be arriving on a midnight flight and informed the hotel. I arrived only to find out, even though they had my reservation and money, they had sold my room to someone else. They informed me that they had a "sister property" where they would move me. At 1am, I was moved to a Hostel (not a hotel) with a small bed. I am a tall man , that's why I paid for a King Bed. My feet hung over and I barely slept all night. The hotel refused to compensate me for my troubles. We had other friends that also stayed in the actual hotel that night and were not impressed at all. It's cheap but you get what you pay for or perhaps not in may case - I paid for a room and tand didn't get it because...
