Crossing the Border to Ecuador from Peru

1) how bad is the Tumbes-Hauquillas crossing?
2) how much extra time would it take by bus to go to the other crossing from Mancora?
3) is the other border crossing particularly better?
4) is anyone heading to Ecuador from Peru anytime soon who wants to do at least the border crossing with me in the interest of safety, as I am travelling alone?
5) i'm really headed to Colombia, so how's the Ecuador-Colombia borders, as well?

p.s.) should this be posted to Ecuador or Peru or both?
