Fantastic location, everything was within a close walk from the accomodation. Loads of dining options within the town and a short walk. The accomodation was fantastic, great space and loved the airconditioner. Good bathroom with great water pressure. The biggest bonus was the breakfast, it was amazing every morning. The owner was so kind and welcoming, she made our stay so wonderful. They even helped us clean our shoes after the volcanoe hike! Which was very needed, and we were appreciative. Fantastic stay, would absolutely recommend for anyone coming to town!

Nice place to stay, close to restaurants and with very friendly staff. They also offer breakfast if ordered the night before. The only problem for me was the shower, it got so hot mid shower that it burned my foot, so you have to keep an eye on it, my family was ok.

The owner of the property let us check in early and check out late. She also provided a great breakfast every morning including homemade breads and fruit juices. She also helped us with our excursions and hailing taxis. Very nice host with pride of ownership.

We had a lovely stay at Hostal las Gardenias! The location is ideal - 15 min walk or quick taxi from the ferry dock, two blocks from the beach, and right in the heart of town. The lady at the front desk is so nice, and made us feel very welcome. The rooms are very clean, nice beds, with good AC. The breakfast is tasty, with coffee, juice, fruit, bread and jam, cheese, and eggs. The wifi doesn't quite reach the rooms, but is very strong in the common areas, and there are tables there if you need to get some work done. We would absolutely stay here again!

Note that this review is based on a father and 5yr old son travelling in the Galapagos Islands. We really enjoyed our stay amd time there. Our host, Anna, was very friendly and welcoming. The place itself is clean, run well, and the room was spacious enough for two people - there were actually three comfortable beds in the room. If you are travelling to the island of Isabela with or without children, you should seriously consider this hostel / hotel. It is a 15 minute walk from the ferry, close to the beach 5mins, all the main cafes and eateries 5mins, and tour guides / operators.

The room was clean and basic. What really made this place stand out was the family who runs it, particularly Gardenia. They were very friendly and helpful and a delicious breakfast was provided every morning. Everything was beautiful, fresh, and delicious.
