"We booked this hotel under the pretense that the resturant was open for business and the taxi price rate was similar to the rest of Ecuador or the reviews in our travel book. Hotel served a nice breakfast BUT no other food is available so one must go into Puerto Ayora for lunch and dinner. The taxi rate to and from hotel into town can be anywhere from $10-$15 each way..... if u want to freshen up after a long tour that will be 4 taxi rides......$40-$60 per day. Lawrence offered us a ride...

10/10 Excellent
"Max is a humble while very caring host. We spend 3 nights in his property. It's not the most luxury place to stay but it has everything one needs for 3-5 nights when you have a busy daytime schedule on the islands (not much time to stay inside). 5' walking distance to the ocean and town center with hundreds of restaurants, bars and tourist companies. Simple and very clean. Perfect for budget travels."
