Seemed safe enough and large mall nearby if you want a wander. No breakfast available so owner did refund us and gave us a lift to the airport. ##### Tanya Stayed 1 night in Jan 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Joel 19 Apr 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Friendly staff and convenient Although the guy who runs it forgot our reservation the one night we stayed was good. Simple but comfy room with no hot water. He even dropped us at the bus station which was helpful. ##### Joel ### 8/10 Good #### Paola 25 May 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Buena experiencia Muy buena experiencia...un poco caluroso pero muy buen trato... ##### Paola ### 8/10 Good #### Yolanda, Trujillo Peru 17 Apr 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Room comfort #### VALE LA PENA Es un hotel muy familiar, donde te reciben como si fueras parte de ellos, tanto Francisco como Jorge son muy amables, te guían te acompañan se vuelven tus amigos, Es cálido y la atención personalizada es muy buena. Lo único no tan bueno son los baños compartidos pues nunca sabes las costumbres de los otros, pero bien vale la pena alojarse ahí. Tienen una pequeñisima piscina donde te puedes refrescar y todos te reciben muy bien. Volvería ahí cuando esté de nuevo por Guayaquil lo recomiendo ##### Yolanda ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jorgelina, Buenos Aires 27 Jan 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Alucinante Funky Monkey!

I have a high tolerance and this was pushing it. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Damian 17 Jul 2011 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Low cost hostel, located near airport with friendly owner/managers it is not easy to find ... not even for local taxi drivers.
