“A bit of an odd place, location and rooms”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 March 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I can't remember why I chose this place, perhaps someone on this site said it was a quiet place and safe, price was good and I like small hotels. First, the location is away from everything. It is in the suburbs and not in walking distance to anything. The neighborhood is gated, but I can't imagine why as the homes are nothing special, some rather run down. This small hotel has the potential of being charming but there isn't much they can do with their location. The room we had was a nice size but there was something just a bit shabby about it. The bathroom was spacious with the best counter room and shelves ever but it lacked proper towels and those there were dingy. The king size bed slept very well with plenty of pillows and nice linens. The breakfast service and setting was quite nice. I believe our check in clerk was El Fonzo, and the next day we were greeted by Angel, both young men were eager to please and very helpful. They made gallant attempts with their English and in general just a delight.
While I said there was nothing to walk to, we did walk to a tourist attraction, the Parc Historical (will review else where) and we did find a nice restaurant for the cab to take us to. I am sorry, but we just kept saying that there was a little something not quite right about the place and the word "shabby" came to mind repeatedly. Perhaps the construction and finish work not just up to par.

“Enjoyed our brief stay.”

We only stayed here for 1 night in transit to Quito. We arrived late and left after breakfast the next day, so I don't have that much to contribute. Our room was clean, not so big, and we had two single beds instead of a double because I suppose that's all they had available. I thought the breakfast was nice. We sat out on the patio and had coffee, eggs, meats, and cheese. Overall, it was a nice stay in a cute Hosteria. Would definitely stay here again.

“We enjoyed our stay, very comfortable”

Everything was good, although breakfast could have more variety seeing that we stayed for four days...
Our room was amazing and the bed very, very comfortable. I loved the fact that it felt like going home and not a commercial space!
Thank you!!

“Warm staff, wonderful location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 August 2011

people found this review helpful

15 minutes from the airport in a quiet neighborhood next to the most shops and restaurants in the city. The staff greeted us warmly, with fruit drinks, placed our luggage in our room, helped us with internet connections, cabs, restaurants, and wake up call. The neighborhood has security as a testament to its newness, and our cab driver from downtown had trouble finding the correct entrance, but the guard helped him get it right. The rooms were small to mid-size, but with refrigerators, AC, writing desk, and the parents' bathroom was spacious. The children's dormer room had ants in the bathroom, but when brought to their attention, the staff took care of it. The breakfast had warm and cold food and drinks and lovely common areas. We would return if in Guayaquil again.
