Hotel Piedra del Mar

Bij aankomst bleek de receptie niet op de hoogte te zijn van mijn expedia reservering. Ook engels was lastig. Een engelse gast vertaalde spontaan; en vertelde dat er wel meerdere fouten op dit gebied waren. Kreeg de kamer uiteindelijk wel; het was ook erg leeg. Genoemde zwembad is 2m bij 4 m. Had een premium kamer; met tv en airco; Deze functioneerde verder goed. De kamer was schoon; maar werd niet dagelijks bijgehouden; je wordt geacht zelf om een nieuwe handdoek te vragen. Douche heeft geen warm/koud knop; water was nogal fris. Ook andere gasten klaagen hierover. 3e nacht, 27-09-'17 werd de disco van het hostel geopend; muziek kneiter hard. Men wilde deze niet zachter zetten na 22:00. Dat wilde men pas om 00:00 doen. Ik kreeg een grote mond, mocht van hun wel naar een ander hostel. Er maar 3 man in de bar zat. De muren van het hostel waren erg dun.Nieuwe eigenaar lijkt op zoek naar nieuwe omzet; omdat er overdag weinig gebeurt. Als je boekt; vraag dan hoe laat de muziek van de bar wordt uitgezet.

The only thing that was satisfactory here was the breakfast. Would never stay here again.

Stayed for 3 nights with my 3 grown children. We arrived at 3:30 in the morning but were treated respectfully even though we had to wake them to let us in due to the hotel being locked for the night. The hotel is conveniently located near the beach and restaurants. The room we rented had a double bed and 2 bunk beds which was perfect for the 4 of us. The hotel offered 3 breakfast choices and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Santiago, the owner, is very knowledgeable about the area tours and activities. He helped us schedule the tours and even assisted us in planning the remainder of our vacation once leaving Puerto Lopez. Santiago helped us plan a great and memorable trip to the Amazon for camping and hiking. He made all of the contacts and negotiated the prices which were extremely reasonable, helped line up the transportation and even helped us with lodging in Quito in a suite that he owns in Quito. . My family feels very fortunate that we randomly picked this hotel to spend a few days. The friendly, extremely positive atmosphere was wonderful. If you want to stay somewhere where the staff and owner care about your entire vacation and not just your stay at their hotel this is the place.

UN LUGAR MUY BONITO Y COGIBLE, SANTIAGO EL PROPIETARIO UNA PERSONA MUY AMABLE Y GENTIL.. TE AYUDA GUIANDOTE A LUGARES DONDE PUEDES IR A COMER Y HACER ALGO DE TURISMO !! UN LUGAR MUI BONITO Y ACOGEDOR.. FELICIDADES !!

The low rating is due to: no electricity/generator power from midnight until sometime after 8 AM (we left at 8 AM) that resulted in NO running water in the bathroom/shower/toilet and no fan or A/C in a room with one small window for ventilation. We had to leave the window open so needless to say, mosquitos were out in full force and the two bars on the street were blaring music until 2 AM. A sweaty sleepless night with high humidity after strong rain. On the plus side: the neighborhood has the beach, restaurants, banks, and pharmacies within a 1-2 block radius.

Terrific hotel a short walk from the beach. The management was wonderful and extremely helpful. One of the nicest hotels we stayed at on the coast of Ecuador. Pto. Lopez is a beautiful bay area with a great beach. We also enjoyed the food at this hotel.

Puerto Lopez is in a remote area of Ecuador that claims to be the "Poor Man's Galapagos". They are trying to develop this area as a tourist destination, and truthfully, we were disappointed. We were fortunate that the whale migration coincided with our vacation because that was the most spectacular site that we saw. We expected to see more wildlife on Isla de la Plata than the birds. We did see some sea turtles, but it is a stretch to compare it to visiting the Galapagos. The hotel gave us their big room at the top of the stairs. We had a trickle of water for the toilet and shower. The tv didn't work, and the manager said he hadn't paid the cable bill. After 3 days of asking for water, we saw a truck pull up to fill their tanks. We paid more on our Expedia reservation than others who walked in without reservations. The breakfast that was included wasn't much: coffee, bread with jam, and juice. The hotel could have been cleaner. The pool is very small, and the water did not appear fresh and inviting.

Den Pool möchte man nicht unbedingt benutzen, aber Bilder können viel Schönes suggerieren! Habe ich aber auch bei anderen Hotels hier in Ecuador erlebt. Aber dazu muss man halt dann ein 5* Hotel buchen. Service sehr gut und bemüht. Essen im Restaurant gut. Zimmer klein, aber ausreichend. Dass Puerto Lopez ein Touristenort ist, wusste ich, aber dass es so schlimm überall aus Lautsprechern dröhnt, war doch ein wenig überraschend. Ja gut, hat mich ja keiner gezwungen hinzufahren... Insgesamt für eine Nacht ok, aber PL brauch ich nicht mehr. Gegend allerdings sehr schön. Isla de la Plata nur bedingt zu empfehlen, für den der schon auf Galapagos war.

El dueno fue un poco vago

les comentamos que las toallas durante los 3 dias de nuestra estadia no fueron cambiadas,no reclamos que lo hagan pero suponiamos que debia ser un ejercicio normal. Respecto al desayuno nos parecio escaso. destacamos la amabilidad de su propietario Santiago muy educado y siempre bien predispuesto

Es un hotel familiar.Aunque la piscina no estaba en servicio la pasé muy bien. La atención de don Santiago y de la señora Susana fue muy buena. El precio es justo con lo ofrecido.
