8/10 Very good

The location is excellent with a lot of shops and restaurants nearby. The reception staff were friendly and efficient. Breakfast was simple but nice. They made boxed breakfasts for us on the days on which we were leaving for trips early. The Wi-Fi was erratic. Sometimes you could stream a YouTube video and sometimes you couldn't even load a simple web page. The bathrooms were nice. Housekeeping was efficient and unobtrusive.

The hotel is one block from the main street. Ana, the hotel manager, helped us with several restaurant suggestions that turned out to be great experiences. In addition, Ana helped us coordinate transfers to and from the airport, which, in the case of the Galapagos, are very important. She also kept track of all the excursions we had scheduled, and I definitely recommend Hotel Cucuve.

This hotel was excellent, primarily because of its great location, making it easy to walk anywhere. On the first day, the staff provided a kind and thorough explanation, and the room was clean and well-maintained. The thoughtfully arranged amenities were also impressive. The breakfast, though simple, was sufficient, and the hotel was quiet and safe. It is a wonderful and cozy hotel that I would highly consider visiting again. Thank you.

8/10 Very good

The room was clean, and the staff very helpful. The re-usable water bottles upon arrival is especially a nice touch as we ended using them during our entire trip in Galapagos. The only issue I have with this location is the internet access - it was pretty inconsistent and it's down a lot. Didn't bother me too much as we were out most of the day. Good thing I didn't have to work until the next island, otherwise I would've been in big trouble.
