Hostal Galapagos by Bar de Beto

We loved everything about this place! Great bed, great AC, good shower, amazing views and location, and incredible staff. It was very quiet at night to sleep. I highly recommend staying here!

Everything was great!

The location was great

The check in and check out times are a bit strange but perhaps it is a thing on the island. I would have liked to use the rooftop but it didn't seem possible due to the restriction with the hours

Fantastische Lage

Buena ubicación, cerca a la playa, habitación con aire acondicionado. Comunicación por booking rápida.

El baño estaba muy sucio, demorada atención en recepción.

We (a couple, 32 years old) booked this accommodation for a total of 5 nights. As soon as we entered the room, we noticed that the entire bed, underneath the bedspread, was covered with long black hairs. We removed most of them ourselves. The sink drain in the bathroom was also still full of hair from previous guests. Additionally, the description stated that Wi-Fi is available in all areas. However, the Wi-Fi in our room did not work at all. On top of that, the shared kitchen was locked during normal daytime hours on the first two days, leaving us standing in front of it with our groceries, unable to cook. We contacted the owner via WhatsApp since the reception is not staffed and it is generally difficult to find someone to talk to. The kitchen was eventually unlocked, but all other issues were completely ignored. The next day, we raised the Wi-Fi issue again. Someone attempted to fix it by installing a second router in our room. To do this, the owner’s husband drilled holes into the wall without moving our belongings or informing us beforehand. As a result, all our things were covered in dust. In the end, they decided the location was not suitable and removed the router again. The Wi-Fi problem was never resolved until check-out. The hair in the sink drain was also never removed, despite supposed daily cleaning. In general, the accommodation no longer reflects what is shown in the pictures—maybe it did 15 years ago. There is no real place to relax except for the bar, which is not directly part of the accommodation (and not usable when it rains). On the rooftop terrace, there is an old pool table that is no longer usable—no cues or balls are available. The grill and seating area are cluttered with old wood, probably from a collapsed roof. We addressed these issues again in person with the owner. She reacted in a very rude and dismissive manner. There was absolutely no willingness to acknowledge the problems or offer any form of compensation.

All was perfect, except wi-fi on the third floor. It went off. All the rest 10/10

Wi-fi

Wir hatten einen sehr netten Empfang mit sämtlichen Informationen, die es für einen guten Aufenthalt braucht. Das Zimmer ist toll gelegen, hat eine Klimaanlage und eine tolle Terrasse mit Aussicht direkt am Strand.

La vicinanza alla spiaggia e al centro cittadino

La scarsità di acqua ma è un problema comune alle Galapagos

Quarto lindo e equipe fantastica!
