I chose the hotel BECAUSE of the option of breakfast, which was not provided due to the fact that "the woman who makes it, hadn't arrived." This overnight was a gift for a friend and clearly included an "American" breakfast. I had had to pay in full in cash in person the night before despite never being told that credit cards would not be accepted. This was a strain on my budget for the rest of the trip. I had also offered my friend breakfast, which caused embarassment for me when I heard he had to go find and pay for his own. At the hotel, the night before, we were told that breakfast would be served from 7:30 to 8:30, rare hours for a Sunday morning. Then, after getting up early, he was denied breakfast. His request for credit or money back was also refused since "they only offer breakfast as a "courtesy."" In addition to helping others avoid unnecessary hassles with so many excellent options in Guayaquil, I hope that Expedia will take into better consideration which hotels they are supporting. Thank you.
