    The hotel is located near cheap restaurants and the city center, yet in a quiet area. Our standard triple room had comfortable beds. - the location of the hotel turned out to be marvelous. - We stayed in this property for 3 nights and appreciated our choice.

    enjoyed the way our double room with comfortable beds was. the venue was in a residential location close enough to all the cheap restaurants, the restaurant street and the docks and baltra airport. and it was at a short distance from las grietas.

    Its residential location.

    The hotel with big rooms, in a pretty quiet area, everywhere on the islands. Early check-in and late check-out, superfriendly staff. The rooms with comfortable beds. A huge variety of goodies for breakfast. Really great experience there...

    Loved the location, so close to the beach and restaurants. The room was always spotless, thanks to the hardworking staff. The balcony and hammocks were perfect for some relaxation. And the best part? The Wi-Fi was as slow as a sloth, how convenient!

    The water in the shower could have been colder, I mean, who wants a hot shower anyways?

    The rooms at this guest house were a pleasant surprise. The bed linen was fresh and comfy, ensuring a good night's sleep. And let me tell you, it was as cozy as a warm hug from a fluffy bunny on a chilly winter night. Pure bliss!

    Mattress could have been better.

    The Wi-Fi at the hotel wasn't the fastest, but hey, it's like trying to outrun a Galapagos tortoise all over the island. But let me tell you, when you're disconnected from the digital world and fully immersed in the natural wonderland of the Galapagos Islands, it's a blessing in disguise. Trust me, it's liberating!

    Wi-Fi speed.

    I greatly enjoyed every detail about my 3-night stay here. the staff were super friendly and affable throughout the hotel. - My double room had modern conveniences like climate control and a flat-screen TV. - the bed and pillows were exceptionally comfortable. - the bathroom was clean. - the location was marvelous and favorable, near the pier, the center, and the Galapagos. - It was also close to the restaurant street.

    We appreciate the convenient location, just a 10-minute walk to the ferry and a quick taxi ride to Baltra airport. Being in a quiet area allows for peaceful nights, yet we're still close to plenty of affordable dining options on Charles Binford Street. the kitchen is well-equipped, making it easy to whip up meals, and we love relaxing on the rooftop terrace with a nice view of the surroundings. the beds are comfortable, and there’s good water pressure in the shared bathrooms.

    The showers only have cold water, which was quite uncomfortable.

    During my stay at El Paraiso, I must say that there were a couple of positive aspects that stood out. the provided database was extremely useful and informative, allowing me to effortlessly access all the necessary information about the hotel's facilities and services. the beds in the room were undeniably comfortable, providing me with a good night's sleep after a long day of exploring Puerto Ayora.

    One minor negative feature was the lack of hot water in the bathroom throughout my stay, which was a disappointment.

    The rooms at El Paraiso were cozy and comfortable, making me feel right at home. The private bathroom with a shower and free toiletries added a nice touch. Plus, the flat-screen TV was perfect for relaxing in the evenings. The bed linen was clean and fresh, ensuring a good night's sleep.

    Personally, I found the flat-screen TV a bit small for my liking.

    I recently stayed at El Paraiso for a couple of days and it was a great experience. The location was perfect, allowing me to easily explore the area without being overwhelmed by the noise. The host, Alicia, was incredibly friendly and always ready to assist us with anything we needed. The room was clean and comfortable, and it was serviced daily with fresh towels and sheets. The entire hostel had a clean and inviting atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this place to any couple looking to visit the Galapagos Islands.

    Can't recommend highly enough this hotel.

    The value for money at El Paraiso was exceptional, with comfortable beds, a great kitchen, and a nice rooftop terrace. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the pier and close to Los Kioskos. The hostess went above and beyond, even taking care of me when I got sick.

    Breakfast choices could be improved with more variety.
