We enjoyed 2 restful nights in this beautiful, perfectly located and comfortable hotel
Pros:

At first we had booked an interior room but when we got there I asked if we could upgrade to an ocean view room. They were able to oblige, which made a huge difference. Our room had a delightful little balcony on which to sit and look out on the harbor. At night it became even more beautiful. The aesthetic of the room and overall decor is simple and modern. The shower was hot and good pressure (easily the best shower we had at any of our 4 hotels in the galapagos). The view from the rooftop breakfast area was even better! I was worried about outside noise given the location is central to the main drag of the port, but somehow it didn't bother me at all while sleeping. The staff was very friendly and the shop next door is well stocked. I enjoyed sitting in the free-to-hotel-guests massage chair for twenty minutes and let it unwind some of the knots acquired from all our snorkeling. 100% would stay again!

Great location but expensive.
Pros:

Location is great but the cost is high for a fairly basic set up. Property was very clean, we did however suffer some nasty bites which appeared after the first night, however these could be from a previous property. Staff moved us to another room and deep cleaned the room so at least they dealt with it correctly.

Cons:

Breakfast was poor.

Great location and welcoming staff, but the limited breakfast and street noise don’t justify the high cost.
Pros:

The location is convenient and the staff were welcoming, supermarket in the same building, clean rooms.

Cons:

This hotel is among the more expensive options in San Cristóbal, but I found the breakfast rather limited, consisting only of toast, eggs, and a couple of apple slices. For the price, I expected a bit more variety. In addition, some street noise came through the open bathroom ventilation, which affected the overall comfort of the stay.

Grande potenzialità ma poca cura
Pros:

Posizione, gentilezza del personale e disponibilità

Cons:

Pulizia e stato di usura dei mobili, personalmente inaccettabile trovare rivestimenti staccati, mobile del bagno assolutamente da sostituire e attenzione hanno camere con vista mare laterale non frontale

Bom, mas precisa melhor internet
Pros:

O quarto com vista externa é excelente, com cama bem confortável e bastante espaço. A localização é a melhor possível.

Cons:

O chuveiro é fraco e a internet é ridiculamente lenta. O café da manhã é mais simples.

We loved our stay at this hotel. The staff was nice. Max at the front desk was SUPER helpful and pleasant. Aside from that, an excellent location to enjoy the best of San Cristóbal island has to offer. We didn't want to leave.

Great hotel and exceptional staff
Pros:

The hotel, staff and breakfast were all excellent. The location is right on the port with many of the rooms, and balconies, overlooking th water and beautiful sunsets. A special call out to the staff who were incredibly supportive during a tsunami evacuation, going so far as making sure we got to the airport after the all clear.
