HOTEL PRESIDENTE COMFORT Internacional — Hotel in Guayaquil

The name PRESIDENTE INTERNACIONAL is probably a misnomer as this isn't Presidential or International in distinction but it is a very good deal. My 2 large beds, single room was a great deal for $55(plus tax) a night which included a nice breakfast served on linen covered tables in a nicely appointed room overlooking the street below. The hotel has an exercise room, indoor/outdoor pool, pool table, Wi-Fi, PLUS two computers with internet access.The staff was especially courteous and most employees understood a little English (something I rarely found in Ecuador).I would suggest NOT staying in a room on the street side as those windows are single pane and you can hear street noises at all hours.|| If you are a real BARGAIN HUNTER, there are many hotels a lot cheaper in the area.||Here's an idea. For your FIRST night in Guayaquil, stay here. In the morning after breakfast, walk the neighborhood for the $25-$30 a night hotels. IF you find the lower price hotel without these amenities AND LIKE IT, you have till 2PM to check out of this hotel and into your...

I stayed here for one night on a school trip and was extremely disappointed. We ate dinner at the hotel and it was disgusting. The food was microwaved and cold and they served us jello for dessert in tiny plastic cups with plastic spoons. One of my friends with me is vegan and they gave her a spongey fake-meat thing that no one wanted to even touch. Our room was small and cramped with a window that clicked every time the wind blew (which was often as the hotel is located on the coast) and the sheets, comforter, and pillows were discolored and stained. All of the girls in our group received rooms similar to these while the guys received much nicer rooms with hot tubs, balconies, couches and windows. Our only window overlooked the elevator shaft and we had to listen to the elevator every single time someone used it. There were three people in my room with three beds and only two electrical outlets. We were forced to charge our phones in the bathroom. Overall, my experience here was terrible and I would give zero stars if I could. Very...

We were picked up at the airport on time and driven to hotel at night. Good reception, reasonable room tho less than what I hoped for. However, lots of drawbacks: As mentioned, EXTREMELY noisy even tho I requested a room away from the road (didn't happen); biggest concern tho is the area which is verg sketchy. After pickup, our tour guide said that in 18 yesrs, he had never been here before and said the area was not good - read: don't walk around outside! The room doors lack internal locks, breakfast was bread, banana, coffee, and one scrambled egg. And, I swear every car alarm within two blocks goes off in early morning and late night. In short, not...
