The Good - clean, centrally located, large room/bathroom, ok bed, breakfast included, quite nice pool. The Bad - no fridge, staff not available to help lug suitcase up and down 2 flights of stairs, breakfast very basic, slippery tiled floors, towels for rent at $US5 day not communicated, a bit challenging if you don’t speak Spanish.

I would not stay here again and would not recommend it. The girl at check in was all attitude, we waited a few minutes after she finished with the folks before us and never got a "welcome" we had to beg to have the hot tub warm finally after a day she turned it on and then she tried to scam us for $41 telling us we damaged the sheets and they couldn't clean them. They had not tried cleaning them when this conversation happened (10 minutes after we checked out). I have since discovered she has gotten my CC from Expedia and charged me $68. The bathroom had only cold water at the sink and the fixtures look like they came out of a gas station bathroom. The tile work needs to be re-done or at least cleaned. there was good water pressure and hot water at shower. While we were there you could not sit by the pool because of the grinding on metal and welding being done to the railing, besides the neighborhood children that took over the pool. BFast was fair but not till 7 am which is problem if you have an early boat trip. San Cristobal is a nice town, stay somewhere better.

I was worried when I was reading other reviews but it was last minute trip and there weren't many choices, we stayed in 3 different hotels in Gallapagos and this was the best one. There is still some construction going on but it didn't bother us, breakfasts was sufficient, no issues with hot water. Only reason why I didn't rate 5 stars was that toilet wasn't flushed when we checked in which made me question cleaning procedures.

The staff went out of their way to accommodate our requests. Some comments below were talking about construction and lack of hot water. We did not face these issues. We were a family of 4 and stayed in their 1 bedroom apartment. I did not notice any construction taking place, maybe its all done. And their was no shortage of hot water for a family of 4. The location was great too, its a 5 min walk to the pier.
