Conveniently located with several nice restaurants nearby. Staff were super despite language difficulties(our fault). Spotless room with mini-fridge. No in-room coffee service; low on hot water. Otherwise fine!

There are hidden costs to this hotel. The water and lights may also not work at times. I found a bug in the bed and they will charge you extra if you bring a guest. There were unknowns that you have to sign for when you get there so read the paperwork!

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at this hotel! Everything was spotless — the rooms, hallways, elevators, and all the common areas were perfectly clean and well-maintained. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist with a smile. The breakfasts were simply amazing — delicious, hearty, and healthy, with plenty of fresh fruits and great variety every morning. The hotel is located in a beautiful, peaceful area right on the Pacific coast. Within walking distance, there are many shops, cafés, and nice places to relax and enjoy time with friends. I left with the warmest memories and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for comfort, cleanliness, and great service. Truly one of the best places I’ve ever stayed! 🌴✨

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel was nice, modern, could be quickly cooled by a mini-split. Staff was very kind and most were extremely helpful. The area is fairly new, and had some great places to eat within an easy walk, so just ask! The breakfast was very good, but I wasnt told there was no buffet on the weekends, so i was a bit surprised at the awkwardness of that. They even gave me coffee made the day before, which prompted me to look for another breakfast cafe. I walked down the road and had a great breakfast, which i was happy to do- just wish i had planned for it. Manta is a modern city, so i was able to use a credit card for meals in that area pretty easily, which is not an option in many Ecuadorian cities, such as Cuenca, where cash is necessary.

Me gusta su ubicación y amabilidad del personal... Pero porfa es la segunda vez que hago check in y el TV y AC están encendidos en mi habitación. He hecho la sugerencia de no hacerlo porque considero que es un gasto innecesario si no hay nadie en la habitación, además de ser cero amigable con el medio ambiente. 🌳
