Owners of the place were extremely helpful and friendly. They brought us to the ferry and to the entrance of the Tortuga Bay walk. They also had great advice on restaurants activities and dive schools. On top of that the location was nice and quiet, but still within 10 minutes walk of the main street. Rooms were new, clean, nice showers, nice breakfast. 10/10

Yogo and Yolanda exceeded our expectations in everyway from providing us wonderful take away breakfasts to recommending storing some of our luggage there for island hopping. Rooms were exceptionally clean and very comfortable. We highly recommend La-K-leta for a stay that is like a home away from home!

We had the pleasure of staying at this hotel twice during our visit to the Galapagos, and both stays were truly fantastic. The hotel struck the perfect balance in terms of facilities—just the right amount to make our stay comfortable without being over the top. Its location, just a short walk from the boulevard, made it incredibly convenient for evening strolls. What really set this place apart was the exceptional hospitality of the hotel owner. He went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. One highlight was the tour he personally guided through the highlands, where we got to sample a variety of unique fruits we’d never tried before—such a memorable experience! He was also incredibly helpful in arranging tours and offering invaluable tips for exploring the islands. I can’t recommend this hotel enough—be sure to chat with the owner for insider advice on making the most of your Galapagos adventure!

The room seemed freshly renovated, everything was clean, AC worked fine and the room was very spacious. There was free drinking water and the price-value ratio seems great for Galapagos.

Everything, Priscila, was a great host, very helpful and informative. She woke up early every morning to ensure we had a cooked breakfast before we left for our excursions. (These required us to leave at 6:30am). She even drove us to the ferry terminal! The hotel is immaculate and super comfy and clean. It's just outside tje hustle and bustle, so is super quiet too. What a great place.

Hostel is about a 15/20 minute walk to the pier, quite close to the market. Booked because had stayed one night on the road on the seafront and found it too loud at night, so this was quieter (except the cockerels and dogs obvs!). Kitchen was functional, hot water, small fridge in room

The room I booked was quite big and comfortable. I had my own bathroom which was very clean! It's in a quiet area but still close to all the cheap restaurants and the city center. There's also free drinking water and a well equipped kitchen.
