The property is wonderful, spacious, inviting, neat & clean. The service was beyond excellent. When I arrived I was greeted very well & when I returned the key I also felt well. I travel 2 to 3 times a year to Ecuador, I travel around and have stayed at other hotel, above them all this one is the best! when I return later this year with a doubt I will stay here again. Right below is a great night light, great restaurants, the Perla at the Malecon is just around the corner & safe to walk over there, there are guards all around. The taxi drivers at the hotel steps are great as well, in particular Cesar, great driver. I love it & highly recommend it.
