Tienen que mejorar en la limpieza de los cuartos, cambiar los colchones, se hunden y no se puede dormir tranquilos, uno amanece con dolor de espalda, los aires acondicionados no funcionan bien, la comida tienen que mejorarla, y la limpieza de los baños que queda por la piscina totalmente puercos, sucios y apestosos, terrible ese hotel no volvería NUNCA, ni lo recomendaría a NADIE.

Overall, it was an okay experience; we truly didn't even stay the full reservation. The one bad thing is that we couldn't cancel.

The hotel itself is decent and the staff was willing to help however the beach to the north is very dirty 100 yards past the hotel. I walked the entire length and there was lots of garbage and dead fish etc. To the south and in front of the hotel is better.

The hotel itself backs onto the beach but is located in what I would consider an alley. Not the greatest location

The hotel is small, with 18 guest rooms. It is in a very quite part of the town. The staff was fantastic. The rooms and the public areas were all very clean.

Is too overpriced for what they offer. When I got here I asked for towels or stuff for the beach and didn’t have any, didn’t have space to park my car, the pool is just for 2 people (jacuzzi size), breakfast is ok, the beds were great gotta say, but besides that, my humble opinion is that is too overpriced for what they have to offer. Plus, the front desk isn’t too friendly, I asked my invoice to have different info and he sent me to Expedia to do so.

My family stayed here for two nights. The hotel is a few minutes from the main beach area, so it's quieter and more relaxed. The pool is small and not deep, but perfect for our children. They loved it. It has jets for the adults to enjoy. The hammock area is perfect for relaxing. Breakfast is a typical Ecuadorian breakfast, simple but filling. We recommend eating at Puerta Espina or El Pescaito for lunch/dinner, because the hotel doesn't offer anything other than breakfast. Rooms are clean and simple. White bedding gave it a clean feel, as well. I would definitely stay here again!

Expensive for what you get.

The room was clean, but too small....I felt like a was on a cruise cabin. Also, there was a party going on next door until 3 AM....our window was facing the party an we were not invited....long night. Breakfast was just ok. Overall, to expensive for what you get.
