Wyndham Quito Airport
We have stayed here 4 times. The hotel is very clean and the staff are helpful and friendly. Restaurant is good and breakfast has everything you could want. Shuttle to/from the airport is reliable and free. I see no reason to stay anywhere else when travelling through Quito to Galapagos.
