The staff was very friendly and speaked English very well. The young man at the reception helped us to find a tour to island Isabela at reasonable prize. The hotel is in the center of the city and very near to the Darwin center.

Zdravka, Bulgaria

Visiting the islands, tour guides were great (La Espanola, and Shark II); both tours done through Galapagos Deep which were recommended by Hotel Espana.

Otto, United States of America

The room was huge. We booked a room for 3 people yet it had 5 beds in it for us to use. The bathroom was large as well. The common areas were very nice to lounge around, and they offered a kitchen free to use along with drinking water. The staff was really friendly and accommodating and permitted a late checkout.

Aly, Ecuador

The hotel was central, rooms spacious with great hot water shower! The reception staff were very helpful.

Maureen, Australia

Stayed just for a night but had a pleasant experience, the place was clean and very confortable, it is close to the port and easy to find.

Andrés, Ecuador

Very comfy beds, room was awesome, and cleaned every day with fresh linens. (sometimes this can vary on level of hostel/hotel) Location was fantastic, the tour company directly across the street has awesome deals to to other islands (Hernmando was fantastic) and the Galapagos Deli a block up the street was delicious and reasonably priced. WiFi is available but only in the common area which has couple hammocks, table and chairs.

Hurl, United States of America

I wish I could have more hands, so I can give this Hotel four thumbs up!!

Juan, United States of America

The hotel has an ideal location in the centre of Puerto Ayora. It is not noisy at all and the reception area is a friendly and comfortable place to hang out. The staff has been very friendly and helpful. Felt very safe also as a single female traveller.

Julia, Austria

Great location!

“Ideal place to stay while in Puerto Ayora”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Standard Double Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉Spotty wifi and its availability in the lobby only. However, Daniel told us this upfront and the fact it was not just at their hotel but the island overall. This was nice of him to inform us so it lessened our frustration of not having easy access to wifi as we're used to back home in the states.
눇This hotel is in a great location close to the pier, w/in walking distance to local sightseeing places (ie Tortuga Bay & CDR), restaurants and shops on the island.

눉The wifi was pretty slow and only available in the downstairs lounge, but this was pretty typical of everywhere we stayed. It wasn't a big deal though - we weren't there just surf the internet after all.
눇Great area and wonderful staff! Very safe and clean and the hammocks downstairs were great for relaxing in after a long day of adventuring!

“Terrible wifi”

- • Stayed 5 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
눉The wifi literally didn't work for Watsapp or other communications, the hotel can only call landlines so I had to continually ask to borrow locals mobiles to contact my tours on the island. Shower temperature fluctuated between boiling hot and freezing cold.
눇Comfy beds and good AC

눉Poor internet connection and available only at reception area and not in the rooms - hence ratings were let down by this.
눇Central location close to shops, tour agencies and the 'kioskas' for food. Within walking distance to the pier for inter-island transfers. Clean, comfortable ensuite room with Aircon and satellite TV.

눉Staff not especially friendly or helpful especially because travel to and from the airport can be quite difficult, so local knowledge is handy. We missed breakfast because we were not told when it finished. Room on 3rd floor.
눇Very convenient location, clean and comfy rooms.

“Okay place to rest at night. No frills- just a bed and a private bath. Nada mas.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Standard Double Room
- • Stayed 7 nights
눉The internet was horrible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If more than a few people were logged in- you are screwed. Plus it is very slow if you are able to connect. It only worked in the common area next to reception. The shower head allowed about a gallon of water out every few minutes through tiny nozzles that barely got you wet.
눇Great location- close to food, shops and the pier. Nice size room, decent beds, okay bathroom. This is a bare bones hotel that offers you a cheap option to sleep in. I would stay here again if I could not find a better deal on a little nicer hotel. Decent bare bones budget hotel. Some of the staff speak a little English. If you don't speak some Spanish- this is probably not the hotel for you.
