Our Hotels in Ecuador

I must begin by giving full credit to Gate1 Travel gate1travel.com for their excellent choice in hotels.  Since this was a package bus tour, and we had ZERO experience with travelling on a set bus tour, we had no control over where we'd be staying, and really didn't know what to expect.  Websites CAN be deceiving ...  But we were very pleased! 

The only change that we'd make is to stay at a place longer than one day.  It's not as relaxing having to pack up and move every day ~ yes, we'll admit that we're spoiled!

It's also hard to REALLY see all of the different sites because the time is so controlled.  However, doing a bus tour is a great way to get a nice overview of an area and then know where you want to explore further in the future. 

In case you want to really check out the places we stayed, here are links to the hotel websites ~
