The breakfast is the best. Fresh fruit, bread, juice and seasoned omelette. Jorge is the nicest and very accomodating with free usage of bikes and snorkel gear. He also offers a reasonably priced tour of the island interior, and will drive you personally.

Friendly hosts, a spacious family suite with two bedrooms, good WiFi and air conditioning and wonderful beds.
The sink in the kitchenette didn’t really function.

Jorge, the all round man in the house gave his soul to please every guest. Clean place, bed was comfortable, hot shower, walking distance to the airport as well as to the pier. Free use of snorkeling masks and mountain biks. Drinking water hot and cold was always available
For the price, I expected to find a small kitchen. There was one,but it was accessable only with permission as it was the kitchen of the family. Part of the breakfast tables in the back yard, there was no common space.

Friendly staff, room was clean and good breakfast included.
Air conditioning was old and took a while to cook down the room but once it did - it worked well.

- staff was nice and helpful (we were able to book our ferry to Santa Cruz and Isabela with them)
- location was good
- breakfast was delicious
- water station to fill up our bottles
- when they learned that we had to leave at 7 in the morning to catch our ferry, they made us breakfast before the time they usually start which we really appreciated!!
- would definitely recommend
wifi didn't work well but it is to expect on the Galapagos :)

we liked everything, free snorkels, free towels, free lift to airport. A/c was great and room was large and comfortable with a fridge. location good. Breakfast was filling and nice
Only negative is no kitchen to use but there is a fridge and hot water from the dispenser so can make some food to yourself. would be great if some crockery was available

The room was spacious enough, there was hot water any time of the day, the breakfast was very nice and fresh, the hosts were extremely kind and helpful, the bed was very comfortable and the curtains thick. There was also a water dispenser (water in the Galapagos is scarce and quite expensive) where you could fill up your water bottle any time of the day. In the room there was even a hair dryer and an iron. Last but not least, there are bikes, snorkeling, and even a surf board to take free of charge (however, tips are encouraged).
The neighborhood was a bit noisy - there are schools around, a rooster, and a garbage truck all started their day before 7am. It's fine if you're not a light sleeper.

The owner is a very nice lady and she takes good care of the property and customers, the breakfast was awesome. 7 mins walk from pier and 5 mins walk from airport in a quiet and safe location.
The internet connection need some improvement, this is very common in Ecuador.

The personal was very flexible to fulfil our needs. We could choose between rooms and had a free late check out. Great breakfast. Possibility to get snorkeling masks for free.
Quite slow WiFi.

This was a very nice Hostel with a very nice building , good rooms, great staff and provided a really delicious breakfast. They were very responsive to our early schedule and showed the flexability to make us breakfast early so we could meet our tours.
Shower was a bit tight and i struggled the first night with getting hot water. My travel buddy told me about a hot water button up on the shower head to activate the electric shower and by night 2 i had some heat to sooth my joints. Thats on me but shouldnt have to figure that out. No Worries Though as everything else was great.

Fabulous comfortable little spot to lay your head. You think it’s going to be a hostal, but you are in a private room with all the amenities, blow dryer, iron, refrigerator. comfortable bed. Clean. The staff was amazing and breakfast included!!! super close to the airport and also an easy walk to the port and downtown area. I was offered a ride to the airport.
It is on the edge of town, but that’s why I booked it.

Breakfast, sympathy of the staff
No hot water sometimes
7.0
this was a budget property. it was good for a couple nights of solo travel but that’s about it. breakfast was good and plentiful and the staff during the day was super helpful, although at night if I needed something it was a little challenging. air conditioning was cold and there was cold water in the fridge to drink.
I don’t need much when I’m traveling alone but this was probably the lowest end place I stayed in all of ecuador. was a bit run down, plastic furniture in the room, never got any hot water and there was an ant in my bed the first night that bit me.
I had to also work to seal the window shut because the first night there were lots of barking dogs and other sounds despite being on a quiet street.
you’re about 10 mins walking from the town center but the front can call a taxi for you if needed

Amazing place to stay! Family-run accommodation, really nice and welcoming, offering free bikes and breakfast. Short walk from the airport and town centre. Highly recommended.
Everything was great for a short stay

The employees were very friendly, it was very clean, the breakfast was delicious and a good portion, it’s very near to the center, the airport and close to nice beaches. (If you don’t like to walk, you can always take a taxi)
i know it’s not the owners fault, but during one evening (10:30pm) the neighbors (dad with his child) played with a ball on the street, and both the child and the ball were very loud, so I asked them to stop playing and screaming, because the sound was really annoying and I could not sleep. And during another night, another neighbor put its XXL speaker in front of their house and played music like in a club. This is disrespectful, especially when they started 3pm in the afternoon and continued until after midnight - again I went over and asked them to turn the music down, because it was just not possible to fall asleep and especially because it is still a national park and if I like to have a party, I would have booked Cancun or something). but the hostel, the rooms and food were very good!

The hostal is in a quite neighborhood near airport and waterfront. Raquel was a very friendly and helpful host that provides you with coffee, water, a good breakfast, cheap taxidrivers and bikes. I think my wife and her could have talked forever if I didnt interupt at some point 😂 Our suitcases were lost and she gave us many more things. We had a very good stay at the hostal and would love to come back at some point.

Amazing staff, very kind and helpful. Breakfast is good. Room is not big with a small fridge, hair dryer, TV and an iron. Very comfortable bed. Cleaning was everyday. The location is just a few walking minutes from the center and about 5 minutes from the airport - you don't need to take a taxi. Wi-Fi is a bit slow, but I was not expected to much. Voice calls (no video) through it were good.
There is only one option for the water in shower and this option is not "hot". The noise was heard outside due to remodeling works in the neighborhood hostal.

Window grill. Unbeatable!
Everything was perfect.
5.0
It was a cash only hostal and it did not say that anywhere on the booking. Why ask for a credit card if they do not take credit? I managed to pay my bill but that should have been front and center for a customer to see.

Quite, big rooms, AC, drinking water for free, free bikes and an amazing breakfast!
I would stay again.
