Lots of hammocks and space to hang out. You can rent bikes from here for $10 a day but we did get a flat while using them. They’re okay bikes. Clean and nice spot to stay.

I arrived with no staff present for almost an hour, while I wrote in Whatsapp to Arnette day before I arrived; so she knew the time window to greet me before arriving. I was very upset there was nobody there to help me check in. Then I had to pay Cash, very sudden, and rude surprise; so I paid cash. I asked her to call me a Taxi, and she said no need, I can just pick one up outside. She was unprofessional business perdon. I cannot at all recommend her place to stay.

No frills budget hotel

White House Galapagos was a nice, clean place to stay. It’s nothing fancy and the front desk is usually empty but for a budget place to stay it does the job!

Eigentlich eine nette Anlage mit viel Potential. Etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Bei den vielen positiven Bewertungen waren wir sehr enttäuscht von der mangelnden Sauberkeit :( Zahnpasta vom Vorgänger am Waschbecken, Haare in der Dusche, schmutziger Boden, sehr verdreckte Küche, etc. Schade. Nettes Personal.

Pros: The room serves its purpose and I liked it. Cons: When I got there they said my reservation did not appear in their system. You have to pay in cash only. The area around the property felt a little unsafe and there was a cockroach in my room.

It was a really nice place to stay, they have bikes for rent, it's like being at home. You can use the kitchen and cook. The only thing would be that the rosters around the area sing really early. Besides that, it's a good place to stay 5/5

It was at walking distance from the piers. There was a shared kitchen for guests to prepare and store their food. Drinking water was also available there. The only comment is about the hosts - they were always never around. There was nobody to help with transportation and questions. Payment was cash only!

Good economy hotel in Santa Cruz

The room was clean, no frills. Fresh towels every day and very nice housekeeping. The front desk was helpful when they were around, not overly friendly. We did not use any tour services on site. I think my favorite part was the woman who came to clean up during the day. I didn't get her name, which I regret (my spanish was very rusty and she was a native-only speaker), but she was very nice and always asked about how we were doing. We even saw her out in the town one night, and she asked how our night was going. Overall, I thought this was a very nice stay for the cost.
