Pros:

La facilidad de tener salida directa a la playa, fue súper cómodo porque salíamos sin la preocupación de quién cuidará nuestras pertenencias mientras estábamos en el mar.

Cons:

La playa un poco sucia, vasos, tarinas. Sé que no depende solo del hotel, pero podrían organizar mingas de limpieza como hacen en otras playas.

Pros:

Salida directa al mar, tiene piscina y jacuzzi. Mi habitación recibia luz del sol y salida directa a la piscina.

Cons:

Revisar el agua de la ducha salpicaba afuera y mojaba el piso, nada que me afectara mi estancia.

Just like other reviews said: Bad price-quality ratio
Pros:

In my opinion, the best part of this hotel was the location. It was walking distance from the center of Montañita, it's connected by the beach and a pier/bridge that connects different parts of Montañita. We reserved one room with a ocean view and one room without a view. The one with a view was nice, you can see the ocean and some beach cabins/restaurants, the other one had a view to the parking lot. The bed was confortable and the pillows were nice. Both rooms had a/c. The hotel looks nice from afar. The parking lot looks safe, has security cameras, nothing happened to our vehicle.

Cons:

Room
The ocean view room had a window/door that had a very flimsy lock, this window/door opened to a balcony that was connected to all the other rooms. There's no partition or screen, so you can literally see inside all the rooms that have a balcony. It does not feel private or very safe. Note: The hotel makes you sign a document that says they are not responsible for things missing from your room.
On the ocean view room, there's a safe. There's no safe on the non-ocean view room. The non-ocean view room was located on the ground floor, close to the door that leads to the pool, this was awful because you could hear all the noise from people at the pool area. People who want to rest, shouldn't book a room near the pool or the hotel should work on noise proofing.

Pool/Sauna
The pool was VERY dirty. The sauna did not work.

Wifi
Is very unstable, specially on the ground floor.

Breakfast/food
Breakfast was not very good, coffee was awful, no fruit, soft boiled egg was runny and had eggshells and a scrambled egg had a hair on it, we sent them back and they took 20min to serve the new one. They serve breakfast from 8 to 10am, we had breakfast at 09h30 and staff said there was no fruit left and only one option for juice.
We asked for food (like lunch or dinner), they said they only offer pool-side food (french fries, fried chicken, etc)

Hotel staff
They were nice but not very useful. They helped us change rooms once but did nothing for fixing the wifi, the sauna, a problem with a TV that did not work. They said we should complain online so that the owners would fix the problems at the hotel.

Hotels in Montañita (in general) must improve their service and premises. We have stayed at at least 5 others and they are worse than this one in different aspects. IF in the future I have to stay in Montañita and have no other option available, I would stay here again. Otherwise I would go to other hotels at Ayampe, that are significantly better.
