"Really nice place to stay, very comfortable and the staff are very friendly. The food was excellent. Good advice and booking for tours.
Location is a short walk from main centre, a few mins, but that makes it nice and quiet. Close to harbour so easy access from ferry."
"We had a lovely night stay here. You’re on an island so some ants and bugs can be expected. This isn’t The Four Seasons so if you were looking for that you would be disappointed. What you will find staff willing to go above and beyond like Jonathan, who made our stay lovely. Love that you could just walk to the beach right behind the property. The peace and tranquillity you will find here is unmatched. I think this is the best place to stay on the island. We will definitely be returning. "
"The Albemarle’s old world charm and beachfront access to La Playa Isabela makes it an ideal location to enjoy the island’s striking beauty and tranquility. The staff is excellent - we particularly appreciated Olivia’s gracious assistance. "
"Very nice hotel, excellent location… Gabriel and his family managing the hotel were always ready to help… 24 hour free coffee and water stations were very helpful… breakfast was amazing with fresh fruits and different juices each day.
Highly recommend the hotel…"
"Nice place to stay, close to restaurants and with very friendly staff. They also offer breakfast if ordered the night before. The only problem for me was the shower, it got so hot mid shower that it burned my foot, so you have to keep an eye on it, my family was ok. "
"Lovely place right on the beach. Great location, walking distance form lots of restaurants and shops. Not that far from pier, like 20 min walk.
Staff super nice and helpful. Proactively reached out to us to make sure we had breakfast either in their terrace or giving us a to-go bag.
I’d definitely will stay here again. "
"Amazing staff with great ocean views! I would absolutely stay here again. The staff continually went above and beyond making our stay beyond expectations."
"I enjoyed my stay here. Nothing fancy but the rooms are clean, the bed was comfy, and the shower was hot.
They serve a tasty continental breakfast and all the staff were very friendly. "
"A basic bugdget accommodation. I had a large room, very basic but as expected. 3 beds, table and open wardrobe. Breakfast was good, although the upper floor area could really benefit from a bit of a spruce up, its a shame they don't make more use of the roof top area. It's currently not a pleasant place for eating!!!! But could be a nice place to chill with a bit of effort.
Water (hot and cold) available 24/7 in lobby area. Sodas and beer also available.
Only met the manager (Byron, i think)...

"The owners were very friendly and welcoming. It appeared to be a family run establishment and they made sure we felt at home. Rooms are simple, clean and safe. A few blocks from the beach and close to all amenities. "

"Hotel and staff were great. Was right across from flamingo lagoon which was really neat. Very clean and beautiful room. Very short walk to beach, restaurants and stores. Helped with doing laundry and gave boxes breakfast for early checkout. "

"This tucked away hotel right on the beach was a lovely way to end our journeys in the Galapagos. We had a beach facing second floor room and loved it. Breakfast on the rooftop was yummy and everything modern and clean. Easy walking to restaurants and the numerous tour companies. Had a baby seal hang out on one of our lounge chairs all day. Adorable. "

"We loved our stay here. It is on the edge of the small town, but easily walkable to everything including a sunset bar that was awesome. I assume it was not coincidentally named Iguana Crossing, but it is literally located at a point where iguana after iguana cross the road. The views from our room and the pool were unbelievable and the wildlife that literally walks in the lobby is amazing. Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful."
