Hostal Sueños Silvestres — Hotel in Parroquia Bella Vista

My first solo adventure and I was a little anxious to say the least! I was given a warm welcome from Carlo and checked in straight away. I had room #3 on the bottom floor tucked away in the corner. There are 5 hammocks just outside which would be a lovely place to chill if they were in the sun! And lines to hang wet clothing / washing if needed.|Room is clean and plenty of space. And is tended to daily. Bed is really comfy and air-conditioning works well. |Bathroom is functional and has plenty of hot water. Hand soap and shampoo provided.|The WiFi is great both in the room and communal areas.|I have breakfast included, freshly cooked and prepared by Carlo's lovely wife Estelle. I've stayed here for 5 nights and had a fantastic different breakfast each day. It is a little annoying you have to say a time for breakfast each day, but I guess that's because it's cooked freshly for you. Generally I prefer to help myself, but I've been very satisfied with the offerings thus far!!! Lovely and fresh.|The location is good, in a quiet back street, but super easy to get around. There's a small shop just across the street, and it's not far to walk to anywhere. A gentle meander to the port about 15 - 20 mins.|It has tested my limited Spanish language!! But Carlo is very good with the translate app! |Would I stay here again? Absolutely! I've felt very welcome and safe, it's a real home from home vibe. I couldn't of hoped for a better stay on Santa Cruz. |Muchas gracias Señor Carlo and...

A super clean room with ample shelving and hanging space for all of my things. I only stayed one night but would've been very comfortable here for a longer stay, as well. Warm water in the shower. Wifi worked well in my room. Free water refill station by the office. You have the option of getting breakfast at the hotel in the morning. ||The courtyard of the property is very pretty, and the manager who greeted me was very accommodating. Before I'd even gotten to my room, he'd set me up with a taxi to take me on a tour of the highlands that afternoon as well as pick me up the next morning to take me to the airport. It was wonderful to have all of that sorted right away. He did not speak English, and my Spanish is not great, but he was quick to pull out the ol' translator app to make sure we completely understood each other.||I liked the location of this hotel at the end of town toward the Charles Darwin Research Center. It felt calmer here than the hecticness at the other side of town near the pier. Sueños Silvestres is also close to the fish market and only two blocks away from the Jardin de Ceramica (a beautiful, quiet escape within noisy Puerto Ayora).|SUPER...

SUPER quiet at night. This was the quietest night's sleep I had during my entire...
