My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and spacious, and the bed was comfortable. The service was friendly and accommodating, although there was an occasional lack of enthusiasm from some waitstaff. The location was ideal for exploring the area, but there were limited lounge chairs available. The dining experience was decent, although there were some shortcomings compared to other hotels. However, the facilities provided added to the convenience of the stay.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and restful after a long day, with a nice bathroom and comfortable amenities. The service was a bit of a mix - some staff members were friendly and helpful, while others seemed poorly trained. The location was great, close to Malecon 2000 and offered fantastic gym facilities. The dining experience had some delicious Ecuadorian specialties, but the service was lacking in friendliness. Overall, a positive experience with a few minor hiccups.

The rooms were bright and cheerful and had all I could want. The bed was comfy after each day's touring. Consider asking for one which faces the pool in the courtyard rather than the street if you are sensitive to street noise.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were a bit tired but provided a comfortable and quiet retreat, making it a preferable choice over major hotel chains near the airport. The location was excellent, right in the city center with convenient access to key attractions and dining options. The dining experience was fantastic, offering a wide variety of delicious options. However, the service had its ups and downs, with some staff members being exceptionally helpful while others seemed poorly trained.

The hotel offers big, comfortable rooms with a nice bathroom and a boutique style. However, the rooms are very old-fashioned with noisy air conditioners. The location is fantastic, right in the city center near key attractions. The service is friendly and efficient, though lacking in smiling faces. The dining options are buffet-style but could use more variety. Overall, a good choice for a stay in a convenient location.
