Value for Money: The hotel is frequently recommended for its cost-effectiveness, with prices significantly lower than central accommodations. Guests emphasize that the combination of cleanliness, comfort, and amenities justifies the slightly remote location and minimal additional costs for transportation.(based on 2 reviews)

Superb accommodation! 2 separate rooms each with a bathroom. Spacious, verandah overlooking an immaculate pool. Included tasty breakfast served beside the pool. Games room/ gym available. Only draw back its 15 minute walk to town. But taxis are $2 and plentiful.

加拉帕格斯住了三四家酒店了，綜合對比這家性價比最高！滿分推薦，服務周到，酒店位置雖然不在港口附近，但是出租車5分鐘到達，大概1.5美金就ok。

Room was clean but had no spare plugs room 12, hotel is very basic. The breakfast is served between 7am and 8.30am. It's very noisy as on the main road and scooters and trucks are up and about at 6am and there is a cockerel next door that crows early too.

The hotel offered jacussy but the jacussy never was on. If We asked for it we need to wait two hours to be hot. The "clean" towels smell like popcorn. For me they give us dirty towels.

This place promises things that it does not fulfill, it offered me round-trip transportation and when I sent them the email with my data to coordinate the shuttle, they simply told me that they were not going to do it, I asked for an answer, talking to the administrator, it was never possible, the place where the hotel is located is in the middle of nowhere. I attach photos so that what happened to me does not happen to them

I only leave a 4 star review because I stayed for 5 days and the breakfasts were boring. Every day they offered the same thing, eggs, toast, or pancakes, cereal and strawberry yogurt. They don’t have a restaurant in the hotel and everything is far away. After the second day I was bored with the breakfast and started buying croissants next door in the bodega to have it with my coffee. The bodega next door to the hotel sells water, beers, drinks and ice creams. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Just a thought maybe the manager could buy “fresh bread” from the bakery the bodega was charging .25 cents per bread it’s probably cheaper to buy in bulk. Also an omelette would be better than fried eggs every day!
