Pretty much decent

Had stayed at this property pre-covid and decided to return to try it again hoping that it had improved after a mediocre experience. Not much had changed. I will start with saying the location in Manta and view of the ocean is EXCELLENT. The hotel is small and attractive. BUT rooms and bedding are dated. Lighting old fashioned. Locks insecure.TV's poor. Pool not well maintained. Breakfast has NO options and poor quality. And we had to explain to them that the VAT tax did not apply to my wife and I because we are in Ecuador on 90 Day tourist VISAS. That should be standard knowledge at any hotel. There are various better choices in Manta at that price.

The staff was nice but the room was unlocked when we got back from being out after they cleaned it.

Well managed nice boutique hotel with very beautiful garden terrace
