This place is a hole. The rooms open up into the reception/kitchen area where the manager sits and drinks with his friends until 7am. Some gypsy slept on a mattress on the floor of this room?! The noise is so annoying that we ended up putting the mattress against the door to try and block it. We asked the manager... More

Great experience. First of all, great location. Really easy to get there from the bus terminal. Either you catch a taxi (USD3) or you don't feel like taking the easy way, and exploring a little bit. We took latter. You catch a bus (USD 0.25) heading to the shopping "Mall del Sol", ask the driver to drop you there, get... More

The guys here are legends, really friendly and helpful. I stayed here for 3 nights organizing a trip to the Galapagos and they cooked dinner each night for me. It looks a bit rough around the edges but is a handy and friendly place to stay

We flew into Guayaquil late at night and it was almost midnight when we arrived at the Funky Monkey. It had been raining and it was hot and muggy. Our room was very basic - little more than a double bed. Rain water had pooled on the walkway and seeped under the door so the floor of the room was... More

The Funky Monky was a very cool place to hang out and the staff were awsome. I got a first hand tour of the city from one staff member and dinner each night from another. They are very friendly and will try and help with any problem you may have. I had only planned to stay there one night passing... More

I was only planning on staying a night at the funky monkey but due to some problems flying out of the country I ended up staying three nights. I really loved it. Nice sanctuary in the busiest part of Guayaquil only a 2 or 3 dollar cab ride to bus terminal or airport, and the food is very good. The... More

When we arrived at this place, there were staff chillin'/sleeping on the beds in the dorm. There weren't any pillows, but they gave some to us together with sheets (both didn't look really clean and we had to ask for it, they didn't really notice there were no pillows). So we had to make the beds ourselves. There isn't really... More
