The staff very nice and friendly the place and location very good. The only thing was carry my own luggage up 3 flight of stairs very inconvenient. They need an elevator or someone who can help you with your luggage. Also don't answering messages. They need to respond.

The hotel can use some renovations however it was very clean. Breakfast and service good. For the price it was better than expected. Safe, close to everything very convenient

Comfortable and support staff great. Recommend!

Good hotel for a few days in clean and safe location of Guayaquil, opposite the malecon- excellent staff and service. However the rooms do not look like the pictures, and are much older condition. Also the hotel is located 3 floors high and lots of steps to climb. If you are okay climbing stairs for a few days, hotel may work well for you.

Excellent friendly

I like the hotel character

Excellent staff. Excellent location. Breakfast quite good. Room had no outdoor window and ventilation in building wasn't very good. Excellent AC.

Great location Cool building with terraces Breakfast included Good value A little noisy Old/soft mattress

Staff is so nice! Great, convenient area. I got a private room with a bathroom and it was very big and so cute, even had a little balcony. I would stay there again

We loved our stay here. The rooms were simple and all we needed but the service was amazing. Lou, the gal at the front desk, went above and beyond to help us. She helped sort out our sim cards for our phones and was able to answer any questions we had. The terrace at happy hour was lovely. The location on the Malecon was perfect. We only regret that our flight arrived two days late and that we didn't get to stay longer!

rom very old, alot cockroaches, alot mosquitoes my wife couldn't sleep the night there very bad

The Manso is a relaxed old edifice.

If you have to drive there...DON'T

I loved the breakfast. The coffee was the best. The staff was very friendly. The view was awesome. I didn't like that I had to carry my luggage up and down to the third floor. I had a baby with me. When I just arrived someone helped. When I left Manso, the staff saw I had a lot of luggage and no one offered to help.

The staff are very helpful. Breakfast was great! The common areas were hot and humid, not the air conditioning in the room was great.

I like everything. Specially the indie style. Well, the only thing I didn't like is the incorrect use of air condition. Like one hour for get freeze

I would stay here again. We were just here for one night, but we got an upgraded room with a window looking onto the water. The bed was comfy, the room was clean. Breakfast was included but we left too early so can't comment on that. The staff was friendly on check in and spoke English. There was a sitting area outside our door which made me nervous at first about noise, but we didn't have any problem and didn't hear anything. The AC worked very well, and the Wifi was pretty good from the room (which isn't always the case in Ecuador). The location is terrific if you want to explore the waterfront. The only gripe was we couldn't get the electric water heater to turn on and give us any hot water for our shower in the morning. I'm guessing if we had complained they would have fixed it (or explained our mistake) but we left at 5am for a flight so we didn't have time to deal with it. Despite that annoyance, I would stay here again, I just might check the hot water the night before. lol. Also, the hotel is not well marked from the outside, but Google maps took us to the right spot and the address was visible, but you have to come in and walk up a flight of stairs to the reception.

Nice for 1 or 2 nights, it is a strategical place if u want to visit Malecon. Our room didn’t have hot water though

Friendly staff. Central position beside the river.

Good location to walk around. Breakfast is pretty minimal. Nothing that special. Stayed in the dorm room and it was pretty hot at times, even with the fan on. Got a bunch of mosquito bites too from the windows being open all day/night. Bathrooms don’t seem particularly clean. But the staff was helpful every time I had questions for them.
