Fantastic staff!
I cannot say enough about the staff. They went above and beyond to help us find last minute tours and to return a missing item after we had transited to another island. This hotel is perfect for those who come to Santa Cruz to experience the outdoors. This is not a hotel for those who want to spend all day in their room. But who does in the Galapagos?? The showers have hot water, the AC is cold, the beds are comfortable and clean and cold drinking water is provided. It is a quiet location just a few blocks from the busy, crowded main strip.

Good intentions
Place seems to be recently renovated. Overall decent place, but can hear all kinds of noise (chatter, people walking by, music..) through door and walls. WIFI range is terrible and slow - need to be sitting next to the front desk to get connected. At one point, connection was down for an entire day.

Nothing more than a hostel
The hotel would not rate anything more than a 1 star. We rented two rooms and they were nothing like the photos. The floors were painted cement and they were filthy. No bathroom amenities were provided, my sink faucet didn't work. My companion's bathtub had a gapping crack that would drain right under the foundation. When you explained the problems to the manager he would get an attitude. On my last night I was awakened by a herd of cockroaches running across the nightstand. After I smashed them with my shoe I stayed up with the lights on. Great day of travel home the next day!

A basic and personal hotel in Puerto Ayora.
The hotel service is very personal. The staff is friendly and and it meets the general needs of a basic hotel in Puerto Ayora. The internet signal is generally very poor (it is my understanding that such is the case in many places in the island).
