V!VA User‘s Description

The Hotel Santa Cruz is a haven for backpackers and national tourists. Even though it is a bit far from the boardwalk (in Puerto Ayora standards) and accommodations are basic, the Hotel Santa Cruz is the cheapest and most family-oriented in town.

Owners Cristobal and Angela Erazo have retired, but the hotel is still in their family and one of their friendly sons or daughters will usually be on hand to answer your questions or tell stories about Galapagos.  There are eight rooms-two singles, four doubles, one triple, and one quadruple--with private bathrooms, tepid-water showers, and portable fans. It is a safe and relatively comfortable option for travelers on a fixed budget. Some rooms have a TV, but no cable: local channels only.

The new administration is planning some upgrades and improvements in this venerable hotel, but nothing too major and it will still be one of the least expensive options in town.
