Great spot to stay when traveling to/from the Galapagos!
Pros:

Quick access (minutes) to the airport - and free shuttle makes getting there easy. (Plus the drivers were great). Staff across the board was helpful and kind. Our room was on the 3rd floor where the outdoor pool and hot tub is - so we enjoyed easy access to this as well.

Funcional com preço desproporcional.
Pros:

Na realidade, trata-se de um hotel de aeroporto. Muito funcional para quem tem conexão ou voo cedo, mas fica bem longe dos lugares mais charmosos da cidade.
Se o seu objetivo for turismo, lazer e conhecer a parte mais bonita e vibrante de Guayaquil, não recomendo ficar aqui. É mais para uma pernoite rápida e prática.

Cons:

Na minha opinião, o custo-benefício deixou a desejar. Achei o valor da diária alto para o que o hotel realmente oferece em termos de estrutura, quarto e serviços.
Para ter uma base de comparação, fiquei em Cuenca em um hotel bem superior em tudo — localização, conforto e café da manhã — pela metade do preço.
Acredito que precisam rever a tarifa ou entregar mais pelo que cobram

The Best Customer Service EVER
Pros:

This was one of the best Hotels I have stayed out with exceptional Guest service. Ariana checked me in and was absolutely wonderful. I wanted to tip the houseman, but I had no cash on me. I asked Ariana where the nearest ATM was and she said across the street. That's when the staff went ABOVE AND BEYOND my expectations. Andres came up and said let me walk you across the street. When we got to the ATM it would not work so Andres said we can take a small walk to the airport and use their ATM, the entire time he had no idea I was wanting cash to tip from the beginning. So me and Andres took a very nice walk to the airport and was very protective of me the entire time. Once we got close, I said how beautiful a plant was and asked if I wanted a picture and took several pictures for me with my phone. Now keep in mind he couldn't speak English nor could I speak Spanish. On the way back I broke out the translator so we could have a conversation. He told me they were blessed to have a guest like me at their hotel, but I was the one who was very blessed by the staff. Needless to say, I gave him a very nice tip and was well deserved. I had dinner around 1am and the staff was absolutely amazing! When I took the shuttle at 3am to the airport he was so kind as well. I am an employee for IHG and I have never seen this type of customer service before.

Convenient Location
Pros:

Very strategically located. Coffee was very good. Staff were very cordial, helpful and fluent in English. Assisted us with our DIY city tour concerns. Had very helpful restaurant recommendations. Rates are reasonable. Room is big, but wished they had a bidet intheir bathroom.

Guayaquil Goodness
Pros:

We stayed here on both ends of a Galapagos cruise. You can walk from the airport--we felt very safe doing this-5 minutes or so--just exit the airport and turn right! No need to use the shuttle service. Nice restaurant on site and we also used the relaxing pool area. Highly recommend.

safe clean environment
Pros:

we had heard many negative things about guayaquil, Ecuador, but we needed to spend the night there before a flight to the Galapagos Islands. The hotel is very close to the airport, but the hotel has a shuttle that leaves every half hour and is quick and efficient. I really highly recommend this hotel. The breakfast is a bit pricey so we ate in the airport, but they do have a nice restaurant where we had dinner the night before our flight.

Luxurious hotel
Pros:

This hotel exceeded our expectations. The room was lovely, beds very comfy and a choice of pillows depending on how soft you like them! The pool was nice and it had a good gym. The eating area was great and food lovely. It had the feel of a very upmarket hotel.

Great Option for Airport Stays on the Way in or Out.
Pros:

This is a hotel of convenience when traveling by air. It does one thing, and it does that well. It's not in a good location for a long tourist stay, for that, try the Grand Hotel Guayaquil or the Wyndham down by the river. But for coming in and out of the Guayaquil airport, this place is great. The staff is excellent, the restaurant and bar are very good, there's a pool and small gym and fridges in the room. If you ask, the hotel will send a shuttle to meet you in the luggage area on arrival and drop you off in the next day for departures (it's like a 200-300 yard walk, but with luggage, in the heat, and especially at night, best to ask for the shuttle.) It's free (tip the guy a couple bucks, right?) If you take a taxi, they can charge you $5 or even $6, it's nuts. Rooms are comfortable. There's a gas station next door if you want beer or soda in the room, there's a bigger gas station you can see from the corner that has a KFC if you want some takeout, and a large grocery store just across the street (cross at the light, it's a big street) if you need something else. I forgot my toothbrush on this trip, the desk had a toothbrush and toothpaste sent to my room for me. Very nice. No charge. Not cheap, but compared to US prices, a bargain.
