Top hotels in Barranco
Hilton Colon Guayaquil
The Hotel is very nice and the room is great. Only issue I have had is lack of hot water in the shower and breakfast seems a bit pricey. There should be a more economical offer for those of us who don’t want to pig out at a buffet. Staff is absolutely wonderful.
