Pros:

The construction is a rectangle snd center courtyard. The pool is likely the finest I have seen . The greenery and multiple levels are just lovely. What a shame I was alone for the breakfast and pool time. This should be shared.

Pros:

Ruime kamer met airco en 3 spiegels!

Cons:

Naast onze kamer stond een mechanische buitenunit. Die maakte veel herrie nog meer dan de airco in de kamer.

Très bien
Pros:

Hôtel avec une ambiance antique, très confortable, literie impeccable, j'ai aimé la décoration qui relate les années passées de la ville de Guayaquil !

Cons:

Le petit déjeuner est restreint, froid et il n'y a pas de service de café si non du café pasado en carafe. Je suis allé prendre le petit déjeuner sur la terrasse et j'ai gâché un t-shirt complètement neuf en m'asseyant sur une chaise en rotin, la teinture s'est imprégnée sur l'arrière de mon chandail et je ne peux pas la faire partir ! J'en ai discuté avec le réceptionniste mais il n'a réagit d'aucune manière ! J'ai remarqué que le plancher sous la table patio, et un peu aux alentour, était mouillé alors je suppose que les chaises en rotin étaient aussi encore un peu mouillées lorsque je m'y suis assis !
