Pros:

The hotel and staff provided exceptional service with warm smiles. Jose and Juan, who arranged our excursions, were very knowledgeable and incredibly helpful, as were the rest of the reception team. The location is ideal, within walking distance of the marina, the Moco Museum, and various dining options. The breakfast was fantastic, offering a wide variety of choices. The bed in the hotel was incredibly comfortable, and the shower had excellent pressure. Plus, the noise level was non-existent, which was wonderful.

Cons:

Just a small request, to have breakfast tea in the room along with UHT or powdered milk for coffee or tea

Great hotel, would recommend
Pros:

Great location, friendly staff, clean. We were upgraded to a larger room on the street but the hotel staff let us chose between this and a regular room on the back, which we preferred as less noisy.

Cons:

Nothing, it’s not super new but nothing too visibly worn off.
