Translation of funnel in Spanish

We drove to the airport to do early check-in but it went so quickly that we had four hours left before our flight departed. We therefore took a cab back into town and visited the local market.
His name was Samy and he offered to take us to several places. In the beginning we were bothered as he did not stop talking on the way from the airport to the hotel and we thought he tried to sell something.
We arrived in there again at night, it was cold and the town was empty. There were few tourist hanging around, but most restaurants and bars were empty. We looked for an hotel and found on immediately.
