La atención en el restaurante pésima, te quieren cobrar por pedir unos huevos pasados en el desayuno o un omelet. El teléfono no vale de la habitación, no vale la secadora y la piscina fria en la noche.

This is our go to hotel in Guayaquil. Have stayed there multiple times and especially like the breakfast and amenities like the pool and game room. We also tried their airport shuttle this time which was easy and convenient. When checking in, make sure to confirm the number and size of beds as that has been an issue for us sometimes at this hotel that they assigned us a room with different bed sizes than what we reserved. They promptly got us switched to a different room.
