“Great surprise.”

To our surprise we were greeted by a driver to take up to the Grand Hotel. I did not realize that I had given them our flight arrival. The bed was wonderful. All of the staff was welcoming and attentive.

“Grand”

Good, if a bit tired. Very convenient location

“Nice stay”

Nice hotel, friendly staff.

“Feeling trapped in Gye”

The hotel was okay but I felt a little high for the location. The deli that they advertised was closed. We ate in the hotel for security purpose and the food was very marginal. I wanted a small dinner salad with my soup . I took two pieces of lettace and two olives for $6.50. I thought I was in New York not a third world country. Two soups , one salad plate and two drinks (one soft and one beer) was almost $30.

“Reasonable room for reasonable rate”

For an overnight stay before transferring to the Galapagos Is. this is a convenient hotel. They offer free airport shuttle service. There was no hot water our last morning there. Maybe a discount for this inconvenience would have been nice.
