Close to everything. Walk everywhere. Staff very friendly and helpful. Nice central courtyard with pool - good place to sit in the evenings. Our first room the outlets did not work. They moved us immediately and to a much nicer room too.

Reginald United States of America

The staff were incredibly helpful, delightful and accommodating. We only had 1 night in San Cristobal and we had a lot planned for the day. They allowed us to come back and shower off before jumping on the ferry. It was necessary for them to accommodate this request but they did and it made all the difference.

Mikael United States of America

Great location, lovely courtyard with small, but very nice pool (closes as 6, FYI). Room was very clean, AC was controllable so you could moderate conditions well Tv had tons of channels I’d stay here again as the price is reasonable and you can walk to everything so easily

L United States of America

Location was perfect! Close to the dock, but also centrally located near the main strip. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Great choice!

Amanda United States of America

The location is excellent. Within walking distance to food, harbor and shopping. Everything was accessible.

Fannya United States of America

Great location; good breakfast; comfortable, basic rooms.

Michelle United States of America

The location was excellent. The kids loved the pool.

Chris United States of America

It was located in a central area and the staff were so accommodating to any questions we had or any help we needed.

America United States of America

We stayed over one night when taking ferries between San Cristobal and Isabela. It was perfectly fine for a one night stay. It was nothing special overall, so we had no complaints but for more days it would be better to be somewhere on the water.

Stacey Switzerland

A wonderful receptionist/concierge named Daniel. Was extremely helpful and over and beyond to make my stay suitable. I'd give him a raise of I was a manager.
