Very small. Barely had room for luggage in the room. Bed was hard as a rock. Bugs in the room. Hot water came in and out. Got charged for my 1yr olds breakfast because we didn’t put that we had a kid with us. I would not stay there again nor recommend it to anyone

There was person at reception during day hours, but if you arrive late, you preemptively can get their number and text or call for a $5 ride from Airport to Goshen. Staff very friendly and there is a filtered watering station in lobby. Our room had 2 beds and a private shower. Very clean. Nice pillows. No noise walls thick. Breakfast was good. There is coffee bar and bakery a block away. Yes, I would highly recommend

Cute hostel with really nice staff. The outdoor area is great to relax in the hammoks after a long day exploring. The owner was kind and gave us recommendations on what to do. The rooms were spacious with decent on-suites. The breakfast was really good and free water was a bonus! Good location only 5-10min walk to the main shop area. Would stay here again

Staying in small hotels sometimes can feel crowded due to small rooms, but the decorations and large community spaces made it seem like home!

Really relaxed vibe, only a short walk to the beach and main hub of San Cristobal. Owner super friendly and although we didn’t use the kitchen as we only stayed a short time, it would be really handy for a longer trip.

Awful hostel with an obnoxious owner
Awful experience. The owner claimed to have not recieved my reservation and then lectured me on how lucky I was that he had a room that night. This is not a hostel but a cheap guest house that has very thin walls and was extremely noisy. Despite speaking minimal english, the owner was extremely condescending and I ended up leaving 2 nights early and he would not refund me the money. There are much better places to stay at on the island.

Disliked: Staff & service
The owners gave me a difficult time when I wanted to rearrange my booking. They told me I had to pay for my entire stay when the cancellation policy stated I owed one nights fee for changing my reservation. Another person I had met at the hostel had to share his single room with another guest, yet was still made to pay full price.

Ood l9cation, great value
Angel was nice and responsive. Very quiet property at night, with the exception of a rare barking dog. Good location off the main street with a bakery and laundry nearby. 5 to 10 minute walk to waterfront. Lots of fun watching the sea lions there. We enjoyed using the central kitchen where we met other travelers. Has a great courtyard with hammocks and a comfy seating area up stairs with a large screen TV. Overall great value for the price.

The host was very nice and helpful and the common areas were quaint, but not as nice as the pictures. Location was okay, but adjacent to some pretty run down areas and abandoned buildings. The electric shower has exposed electrical plugs and wires is very dangerous to shower if not very careful. Host should fix this before renting to more guests. All the rooms are sliding closet doors with a small luggage lock, so consider elsewhere if traveling with any valuables.

The room is comfortable but small. WiFi is ok. It has fully equipped kitchen that guests can use. It also provides free coffee and tea, but sometimes they are out of stock. It has a small garden in the front. Checkout time is 9:00am which I think a little bit too early. Generally we had a good stay.

They have a kitchen!!! If that’s important to you, then this place is your white whale, as Not many places in the Galapagos have one. They also provide free drinking water and had a bunch of bananas to take from, outdoor seating, hammocks, and comfy indoor seating. The WIFI isn’t the greatest and they don’t serve breakfast (so you need to provide your own coffee), otherwise everything else is great. The location is perfect, leas than a five minute walk to the pier, a delicious bakery and several laundries a minute away. It’s also quiet, has nice beds, and hot water

Convenient and economical hostal
We stayed at Hostal Gosén for a couple of days at the end of our stay in Galapagos. The owner was very friendly and helped with arranging the tours. The rooms were nice and comfortable. There is a great bakery and a laundry place on the same block. It was very close to town too and really economical too.

Nice friendly hostel
This is a very clean and comfortable guest house with an excellent kitchen which guest can use. Beds are comfortable and clean. It is in a quiet area of town and within walking distance to beach and other attractions. The rooms are a bit worn and the sound proofing is not that good but it is good value.

Excellent place to stay
Great hotel to stay. close to everything. Room is clean and big. Shower is great. Service is excellent. 9AM check out is a bit too early if you have a 1PM flight, but I checked in alot earlier, so it is a wash. Overall, an excellent place to stay on the island, highly recommended.
