Pros:

Lovely property in an excellent location right off the main pier. Nice pool and hot tub area with clean well air conditioned rooms. They use Elon Musks Starlink so the Wifi is great! Enjoyed omelettes, fruit, toast etc for breakfast and drinks at the bar. I recommend this hotel and would stay here again.

Yes for Hotel Ninfa
Pros:

My colleagues and I stayed at Hotel Ninfa for 2 weeks for a training that we were hosting. The hotel staff were super helpful in assisting us in every way. Myra and Sara in the restaurant were so kind and attentive and we really felt looked after whilst we were there. It is super central and is a short walk into town. We would definitely recommend Hotel Ninfa to travellers visiting Puerto Ayora.

Overall, it’s not the best choice, but it can be fine if you don’t expect too much.
Pros:

The Ninfa in Puerto Ayora is an okay place to stay. The rooms are very simple and a bit dirty, with many bugs. The breakfast was not very good, and the service was not very friendly. The location is quite good because it’s close to the harbor. However, there are better alternatives in the area. Overall, it’s not the best choice, but it can be fine if you don’t expect too much.

Pros:

The location is the best, the staff is ok but room had not vent in the bathroom which is unacceptable, the AC did not work well, the breakfast buffet did not have coffee, just colored water with not flavor at all. I booked the hotel online and I wasn't advise that next to my room there will be construction work the hotel told me at check in🙄
