The apartment we rented was spacious but the hostal in general was neglected. It was very far from downtown. There was not reception. When we arrived, we were completely lost without a soul around. We were the only people at the hostal. The owner barely communicated with us through WhatsApp. We never saw him in person, only a woman who wasn't very useful.

Ariana’s was perfect.
Ariana’s is excellent to stay in. The beds are super comfortable, the view from the kitchen area is great, the air conditioning worked great. Across the street is undeveloped land so we saw several new birds. It is a little over a mile to the harbor so if that’s more of a walk than you’d like, taxis are everywhere. All kinds of stores are within 2-3 blocks. We loved the neighborhood.

A good spot for a quick stay. It's pretty basic, but reliable, clean, and quiet. It met my needs. It's about a 15 minute walk to the downtown/waterfront.

It’s a few blocks off the tourist trail but the bars and pier is easily accessible. Local options even closer. Clean and comfortable room, decent shower and terrace is a nice touch. Wifi patchy but that’s island-wide. Friendly staff, recommended.

Good location, close to nature. Great view from the 3rd floor. However, there was some difficulty in contacting management or staff on site. Overall, good. Service people clean your unit, and change your sheet and towels daily. The place has a kitchenette and fridge to prepare your own food. We spent 10 days at this hostel. Buena ubicación, cerca de la naturaleza. Gran vista desde el 3er piso. Sin embargo, hubo algunas dificultades para contactar a la gerencia o al personal en el sitio. En general, bien. El personal de servicio limpia su unidad y cambia sus sábanas y toallas diariamente. El lugar cuenta con cocineta y heladera para preparar tu propia comida. Pasamos 10 días en este hostal.

Gabriel and Blanca are wonderful hosts. They made our trip pleasurable by providing personalized service and help in any way we wanted and patiently answered all our questions. The hostel is on the outskirts of the town - so a 15 minute walk to the port, or a $2 cab ride. Rooms, beds and linen are clean; breakfast on the terrace is great. Its in the residential area of the town, so there are kids playing on the street and roosters crowing.

This property Called itself Ariana’s Galápagos Suites but its actually a hostal. It is situated on the edge of town - a blessing for some, not so for others. Check-in was easy and the woman checking us in was very nice and informative. The room was decent but could've been so much nicer (for example the balcony doors were difficult to open and close and there were tons of scuff marks and foot prints on the walls - what?!). The AC was very welcome as it was hit and humid for most of the time, the water pressure was good and there was a moderate level of warm to hot water, the toilet flushed wonderfully and the balcony was a nice addition to the room. The upstairs terrace was also nice as were the beach towels and the daily room cleaning. One of the main reasons we booked this place was because it said it had bicycles. NOT! that was a big disappointment especially because of its location. We wound up renting bikes from a local place for about $240 for the week for 2 bikes. Also the wifi is pretty bad on the edge of town and I totally expected that I’d be able to pay for the balance of the room by card. But no. Due to poor wifi, I had to dig into my cash supply and pay $336. This is a cash place for the most part and that put a fairly decent dent in my week’s budget. All in all a decent place to stay. If they had bikes as advertised staying on the edge of town wouldn’t be as inconveniencing.

The owners are very hospitable, breakfast was good and the rooms are large and clean. The property is a quick cab ride to restaurants and shopping. It’s a great option for a restful evening after touring all day long. The owner is very helpful providing advise regarding tours, etc. We had a great time in Galapagos.

Room was big, comfy and clean. My only issue was the distance to town (but it was easy enough to grab a taxi) and a rooster that would wake me up every morning at 4am and wouldn't shut up until some time later in the day. Also wifi not great and i had no wifi at all in the room.

The owners were very nice and the lady that makes breakfast was extremely nice, she gave us a banana, tea and croissant for our trip. The place although outside the city center has taxis passing by every few minutes. The water at times was not as hot as we like it, but this didn't take away from experience. Our bathroom had a window that did not close, so we heard dogs fighting and roosters. Otherwise the place was quiet. They also provide you with towels to go to the beach and filtered water. It is clean and safe with locked access, family owned and operated. The price was very reasonable.

Ariana’s is a hostal with a very good service provided by the owner, Blanca with the help of Isabel, both very kind. The included breakfast is a plus, with fruits, eggs, bread, and every day they surprise you with some local food that was allways very good. The hostal is a little far from the Ayora Port, but the taxi yo get there is only $ 1.50.

If I make a complaint, the goal is not go get something for free, but simply what we paid for. When you know that the price is the same whether there are two adult and a child or simply two adult for a two bedroom apt. But the owner uses your oversight to his advantage and charges you an additional $90, yes it validates a complaint. However the fact that I am courtesy to you despite my displeasure, doesn’t mean that that you contributed to the success of my vacation. As a business owner I Hear all my customers, I don’t berate the ones that don’t give five stars.
