Disliked: Amenities
Worst place we have ever stayed. Bedding from the 1970’s; dirty towels; problems getting room serviced; 2 pools but both dirty; lack of property maintenance; not sure if TV worked because remote control not provided; NO HOT WATER 2 days in a row; mediocre breakfast; tea bags appeared to have mould on them; “suite” was just one room and misrepresented as to size-advertised on Expedia at about 2x the actual room size; the area is noisy-dogs barking. We asked for a refund for one of the nights to compensate for the lack of hot water and we were told there was hot water and that was their best room and no one else has complained. Not true! Read the past reviews. Anyway if possible AVOID THIS PLACE.

We only stayed overnight between the afternoon ferry from Isabela and the morning ferry to San Cristobal. It is difficult to rate the hotel as we were not there long. Our room did have a nice balcony with a hammock. The room had a mini fridge. The water in the shower was cool, couldn’t get it to go hot. The grounds of the hotel were nice and has a small pool.

It looks old, not maintained well care, inside the room ceiling is peeling it off, the picture they have to advertise it, are better looks than how its looks now. It was very depressing, disappointing that I had to leave the place almost immediately. I would like my money back due to falls advertising it.

Fabulous experience.
I stayed at this B&B with my partner during a dive trip to Santa Cruz. Would highly recommend. We had a beautiful and comfortable room, always clean and a great location in town. We left every morning by 6:30am so can’t comment on the breakfast, but the water jug was always full and cold! We would stay here again.

Great location
This is a little hotel but family was very helpful with airport travel, activities and anything we needed. Our travel changed a bit after reserving the room and The hotel was much more helpful than Expedia with our reservation. Good breakfast. Good internet in common areas. Very safe and location is great. We could see the water from our room but hotel is a few blocks away.

My husband & I LOVED this B & B which is priced very reasonably. The staff & owners are very personable, friendly, helpful, accommodating, efficient & truly fun!!!! Several times they accompanied us out to the street to hail a taxi. We enjoyed the extremely clean pools (2) on the property. The grounds had a lot of trees, hence a lot of shade, very enjoyable. The owners were continuously sweeping up the leaves etc. that were blowing down because of the nice breeze. It was a very convenient, easy walking distance, location near town. Which includes waterfront restaurants, scuba shops, ferry docks to other islands especially to German Beach, which we would highly recommend. We saw the largest, most colorful Parrot fish EVER! We also saw for the first time sea snakes. I watched the behavior of one of them for quite some time, which was very interesting. In conclusion, my husband & I HIGHLY recommend this B & B.
