Hostal Vista al Mar, hotel in Puerto Ayora

Within 5 minutes' walk from various restaurants, Hospedaje Vista al Mar is located in Puerto Ayora city center. Free WiFi access is available, and the Puerto Ayora restaurant district is 164 feet...

The price was great. The location was good - short walk to pier area (restuartants, grocery store) and short walk to Tortuga Beach trailhead. Very helpful in arranging a non-standard route taxi for a day (I do not speak Spanish, many taxi drivers do not speak English). Room was spacious. Included desk and chair. Bathroom was average sized, not dinky - but they need to add a shelf above sink to store toiletries. Room does have air conditioning. Nice place.

    The hostel has a comfortable shared area. The kitchen is very big and very well equipped. There are free water refills. Towels and bedsheets get changed every day. The place is centrally located and very close to the central food street (cheap menu del dia). They have an onsite bike rental shop. I could leave my bags on the way from Isabela to San Cristobal for 6 hours and use the facilities. The place was very social when I was there. Highly recommended!

    Great location, spacious, clean and comfy rooms with air con. I was slightly disappointed the hostel is quite dated and also doesn't have a common space or kitchen, doesn't offer water refills as most places do. I would recommend staying here for a 1 or 2 nights only.

    Great location for a good price. Friendly staff. The aircon was decent enough to keep the room cool. The bed is huge, as it is two small double beds put together, and you don't notice any gap in the middle. Next door to one of the best restaurants in town and close to everything else, including the best beach in Puerto Ayora, playa de la estación. Decent kitchen with plenty of seating, and free drinking water. Plus you can leave your bags in the hostel after checkout.

    Best value for money by far in Puerto Ayora! It's all new and fresh, very clean and very safe. Hot water, room is cleaned daily, shampoo provided. The kitchen was amazing, very well equipped and free drinking water too. The location for us was perfect, being backpackers and on a budget meant that we saw more of the cheaper places to eat than there are in the town.
