"Beautiful view and very friendly staff. You do have to take a water taxi ($1 and operates 24/7) to the main part of downtown Santa Cruz but the view is worth it! Also it’s across from The Point by Midoro which as an amazing view and food. I would stay there again! "
"An incredible hotel within walking distance of all of the action of town, but in a quieter area. The owner was so helpful and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The breakfast was great too. "
"Centrally located with lots of choices to shop and eat. A block away from The Port and plenty of taxis available.
The Staff was great and their breakfasts in the morning are incredible! WiFi was a little spotty but that’s the only thing I’d change. They even packed us little snack bags for our airport run!! "

"The rooms were very comfortable, the jacuzzi was a very nice surprise for us, the weather was a bit cold so we had a very good time there. It has a very convenient location you can walk to many places. The breakfast was very good and the staff was very kind. "
"We had a great stay at Blu Galapagos. Loved the location and our room was perfect - Great view, well maintained and had a king bed. Even if the description says queen bed and the picture looks like a king, you can trust the picture. Morning breakfast with iguanas and seals, and all day Galapagos coffee availability made this stay special. "
