Hostels in Galapagos, Ecuador

Bright room, comfortable bed, excellent air conditioning and wifi. Good location within walking distance of both the boardwalk and Mann Beach. Water dispenser always full. Negative points: -Owner very polite and pleasant, but not very informative. It answers specific questions, but does not provide more information. -The photos are misleading: the living room-kitchen is closed, that is, there is NO kitchen available. Following a comment on booking, they told me that it was available to anyone who requested it: but if when you arrive they don't inform you that the stay or the possibility of opening it exists, how do you know? -The photo of the sofas and the table full of guests is the family room. In other words, there is no common space. The only place you can be is in the room. They answered me that the family is 3 people. And that has to do? Yes, and those 3 people occupied the room; Logically, it is your living room, the only thing missing! My complaint is that in the booking photos the living room shows guests on the sofa, looking at the computer... giving the impression that it is a space for guests to use, and that is not the case.

The hotel is very clean, quiet and safe, excellent attention, good location near the port's walnut, give very references to the site.

Cheerful and helpful owner (Amanda) & family. Not a lot of English spoken (bar Sergey, when he was around, and another girl at reception who we only met once) so without some Spanish there can be misunderstandings. Staff also very friendly and helpful. lnternet was poor (general problem in Galapagos I think) and caused problem paying bill as it failed in mid transaction with CC and we ended up duplicating the payment. To be fair Amanda went straight to bank to cancel as soon as we discovered it - money was back in our a/c in a week or so. Most rooms are good with spotless tiled floors - we ended up sampling 3 different rooms in our 4 night stay (1 night and then 3 more following a gap of a few days). One on 1st floor at the back of building was a big room with mini kitchen incl sink, fridge and microwave but was overlooked by closely adjacent property so we just kept curtains closed most of time which made it a bit gloomy. Equiv room on 3rd floor which we had for a couple of nights was a good room. Twin room on top floor (4th) which we had for 1 night was small but gave you easy access to the rough roof terrace which had a few chairs which we used to have a beer and some snacks watching the sun go down. All rooms we stayed in were noisy though - probably applies to much of Puerto Ayora accommodation - continuous cars in C Seymour, dogs, cockerels from 4 or even earlier, water pumps, etc. etc. not the best if you are a light sleeper. Normally we left the windows open - closing them helped a little but not much. Breakfast was reasonable - not laid out in a buffet but brought on request. Fresh fruit juice, eggs as you prefer, bread/toast, coffee/tea, fruit if you asked for it. Overall were happy enough with the place, esp Amanda & staff and would stay again but not in the room on 1st floor and I'd bring good earplugs.

Although the room is not big, it is very clean, the roof terrace is particularly good, the service is very thoughtful, the plug of the mobile phone charger is wrong, the waiter borrowed it for one night, thank you!

Location is very good. Close to port, restaurants and shops. The room had good a/c and comfortable bed. TV did not work but that was ok with us. The hotel itself was fine as a 2.5 star rating hotel. The room was spacious and bright, the bathroom was dark and in need of TLC.. The most difficult issue was our room and the hallways were covered with little wall lizards. That made it difficult to sleep expecting them to drop on your head. I love the little creatures, but not in my bed! The front desk management was quiet poor except for the one young man who tried to help get the lizards out of the room). The general manager was very rude and sour when you asked for anything. No late checkout allowed. Courtesy bathroom offered was disgusting and unusable, not even for a quick pee!! Super dirty and filled with mosquitos and bugs. Tried to be fair and balanced to the establishment in this review, but we would not stay here again. Lots of better places to choose from for same price point.

We spent 7 nights in the White House and were very happy. The hotel is about 10 minutes walk from the port, we felt very safe at all times on our way home. The rooms are practically furnished, clean, warm shower, comfortable beds, rooms separated from the street by a cozy and beautiful indoor courtyard with hanging mattresses. Very friendly and helpful owner family, rent bikes and had a great excursion offer. There is also a common kitchen with refrigerator and water donor, which was very practical. However, the maintenance of the kitchen (in particular with regard to cleanness and old food) could be optimized. In addition, everything was top and we can recommend the accommodation very much.
