"Awesome views, minus the children, with a makeover could be five stars."

9.0

Basically everything!

Needs a redecoration and makeover/update desperately but that would make it a wayyyy more expensive hotel lol also kids in the hot tub didn’t seem like guests and were loud and our room was right over the pool. Make this an adult only hotel and it’s perfect for the Galapagos!

Das beste an dem Hotel ist die Lage bis auf die Tatsache, dass es abends sehr laut ist, wenn nebenan Musik gemacht wird. Alle Zimmer zeigen Richtung Meer.

Das Hotel ist total alt und wird nicht gepflegt, die Zimmer alt, das Bad grausam. An der Rezeotion wird nie gegrüßt. Alles klebt, Türgriffe sind lose. Die Dusche ist winzig und es spritzt von oben in alle Richtungen. Haare werden also immer nass. Das Omelett morgens hat überhaupt nicht geschmeckt und war total flüssig. Leider darf kein Seehund mehr rein, da ist jetzt ein Tor an der Treppe zum Wasser.

"Great location, amazing view of water and local animals. Staff is friendly and very willing to help you with what you ne"

9.0

The staff is very friendly, we were able to communicate in English and Spanish. We used the laundry service, $3 per pound, laundry was returned same day when dropped off in the morning. The breakfast was included and was a good basic breakfast - eggs, toast, fruit, yogurt and nuts. There is a nice lounge in addition to the breakfast area. We enjoyed wine from the hotel one night by the water (about $32 for the bottle). This is a great place to see wildlife - we saw sea lions by the pool, blue boobies while eating breakfast, pelicans and iguanas. We did not use the hot tub, you must book a timeslot but saw a few people using it. The shower pressure is good and partial ocean view room on 2nd floor had a great view of the ocean.

Beds are firm. A few days the pool looked a bit cloudy, but then the next day it was much better.
