Friendly and good value
Pros:

Friendly and spacious rooms close to the flamingo laguna. The caretakers were very friendly and fast with offering solutions to minor problems, eg the secondary wifi did not work and they got it repaired within 1 hour.

過去一やばい
Pros:

チェックイン時部屋の冷房つけてくれてて涼しかった

Cons:

洗濯してなさそうなタオルと枕とシーツからおじ臭。通された1番遠い部屋はWi-Fiほぼ繋がらない。ドア下4cmくらい開いてるから蚊とトカゲが入ってきた。でかいゴキ部屋前にいた。夜は4cmの隙間からピカピカの床が反射して外から見えるので注意(バスタオル置いた)スタッフ常駐してないのでキッチン使えなかった。

Schöner Aufenthalt auf Isabela
Pros:

Ich konnte noch spontan länger bleiben. Der Kontakt zu Angie und der Familie ist super und man kann sie immer nach Hilfe fragen. Direkt in der Nähe von allem

Cons:

Etwas dunkel wegen dem Fenster zum Innenhof

No Service 😐
Pros:

Sehr gute Lage. Nah am Strand und in der Ortsmitte.
Das Hostelehepaar nebst Kinder und Katze sind allesamt sehr nett und freundlich.
Die Duschwasserversorgung ist top, täglich reichlich kaltes und warmes Wasser.

Cons:

Das Zimmer war bei Ankunft gereinigt, aber das war's dann auch schon.
Insgesamt war ich dort 4 Nächte und es gab keinen Handtuchwechsel oder Zimmerreinigung. Nichts.
Einen Fahrradverleih gibt es ebenso nicht im Haus, sondern nur außerhalb.
Die Küche ist eine Gemeinschaftsküche mit der Familie und nur zu bestimmten Zeiten geöffnet.

Great location in family stay
Pros:

Super welcoming family, spacious room, colored walls with a nice picture which made it look really nice, super close to the beach and the food court and so on. Free drinking water.

Cons:

That the window goes towards the inner yard, hence not much privacy if the curtains are open. Cleanliness could improve but I think that is pretty common for the island. (Toilet and dust)

Great Value Stay in a Perfect Location
Pros:

Great location — truly can’t beat it! And for the price, it was an absolute steal. The owner was lovely and made the experience feel welcoming and personal.

Cons:

That said, some parts of the room were a bit outdated. But honestly, for what’s available on Isabela, it’s pretty solid overall. I’d recommend it to a friend looking for a good-value, well-located stay.

The most amazing hostel! Such a nice family! Great rooms! Always clean and tidy.
