The hotel is just like the pictures. It’s close to the Darwin Center and we were able to walk everywhere. The owners could not do enough for us and SO kind and friendly. The breakfast was unbelievable. There was fresh fruit everyday with yogurt and granola, juice, unlimited coffee and something homemade each morning. One day we had the best empanadas we had ever had! We would stay at this hotel again in a heartbeat! Thanks guys for making our stay so enjoyable:)

We had a wonderful stay at this small, family-owned hotel in the Galápagos. The service was exceptional from start to finish — the owner personally made sure every detail was taken care of and that we had everything we needed. The staff spoke excellent English, which made communication easy and stress-free. The location was perfect, close to everything yet still quiet and relaxing. And the breakfasts were fantastic — fresh, generous, and a great way to start each day of exploring. We truly felt welcomed and cared for. Highly recommend! You will not be disappointed!

We had the VIP room at the top with a balcony. Our stay is only 1 day. It was a very quaint and cute hotel. It's 2 blocks walk from the main strip. The owners are super nice and kind. They literally serve you breakfast. Felt really treated. This hotel has an awesome history. First developed by a lady for those family in need, then covered to a place for scientists at the Darwin centre. All of the rooms are built by elderly mother originally. It's $2-$3 taxie or 10 min casual walk to the main pier.

It’s a cute hotel with a friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was good and it was pretty close to the puerto. It was a little noisy at night and we could hear karaoke from our room, but it was a cute place with clean water to drink.
