Room: 3rd floor. Huge. Great views of the ocean. Quiet. Could not have been better.
Location: Across from the prettiest part of the beach. 2 - 5 minutes walk from all the restaurants, but far enough away not to be loud.
The hotel staff at Volcano Hotel are out of this world. When we needed to leave early in the morning for a tour, the hotel staff came in earlier to start breakfast, which was excellent every day, so we could eat before we left.
One day, we misplaced our camera. As this was near the end of our trip, we were freaking out. When we told the receptionist, she called all the tour operators we had used and found out that one had found our camera. Then, she rode her bike to their office, picked up the camera, and brought it back.
Even without the high level of service, the days we spent at Volcano Hotel would have been the best of our trip to Ecuador. However, thanks to the attentiveness of the hotel staff, this trip was quite possibly the best vacation of our lives.
Thank you Elizabeth!
