Hotel Mainao — Hotel in Parroquia Puerto Ayora

My Retired brother and I stayed here for 3 nights, as part of a Tour package. What a treat it was to get away from modern hotels! It was away from the main tourist roads and it had a very charming appearance. Some people might find the winding stairs difficult to maneuver with luggage, and some might dislike the bathroom sink having only cold water, but we had no problem----especially since the shower was so nice and hot! The breakfast was eggs/omelets, toast, fruit, and drinks----all cooked near the tables and served to you by pleasant staff. Being a small hotel, checking in is quick and handled by very welcoming staff (who also sell beer). We would definitely return here, especially since "touristy town" is only about 5...

We had a pleasant balcony with chairs to sit. The room had no fridge or microwave or tea/ coffee station. Tea and coffee and hot and cold water were available downstairs in a lovely meeting cove. The bedding was a little hard but okay. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The buffet breakfast was sufficient but nothing to write home about.|We were satisfied...

I am handicapped and this was one of the few hotels with an accessible room in Puerto Ayora that also didn't cost an arm and a leg.

They also offered laundry at a very decent price of $3 per kilo. |The staff was amazingly friendly and answered my numerous questions (Amanda & Atenea!)|I highly recommend staying at this hotel when staying in...
