The hotel is an older hotel but very well maintained. Has a beautiful swimming pool with lots of tropical plants and iguanas. Around the corner the beautiful Catedral is located and also a nice park where you can see a great monument to Simon Bolivar and there are probably more than 50 iguanas that come close to you. The malecón is walking distance. During the day is safe to walk around but I will not venture during the night. Breakfast is included and it was a great buffet with everything on it. Lunch was great also. There is a great pastry store attached to the hotel lobby .

Older hotel but it is in reasonable shape. Very nice pool and pool areas. Food in restaurant was ok but service was a bit unpolished.

Lovely hotel and great staff. The carpet in room 417 needs a shampoo as it is badly stained with something. I'd definitely stay there again.

The location is great for those wanting to explore Guayaquil for a day before heading to the Galapagos (typically a stop-over town for those travelling). The hotel is impeccably clean and the staff are very friendly. With being just 2 blocks away from the Malecon, it was very walkable to go see some of the tourist attractions
