Lovely people and a breathtaking view in an extraordinary location.
Pros:

Incredible views, lovely family, totally unique experience. Good breakfast and very helpful when we had an extremely early start on departure.

Cons:

Rather terrifying steps and in the middle of a building site. Only for the nimble!

Great, comfortable stay
Pros:

Very clean room and facilities. It is a duplex, so you share the building (kitchen + bathroom) with another guest.

Cons:

Checking in was difficult. I had to find the owner at his house near the top of the hill. But he was very kind.

a warm host in an untouristy town
Pros:

If you are interested in a party atmosphere, this posada is not for you. But if you want to stay in a lovely room with a warm host, it's a good choice.

Great hospitality
Pros:

To be clear, the photos & reviews combine two separate accommodations. There is a lovely large room in Juanita's home, and a few mins away, a separate small apt with 2 private rooms and a shared kitchen & bath. . We stayed in the latter. Convenient & clean, and included a lovely breakfast served each morning. Juanita was helpful & sweet.

Cons:

Very busy & noisy neighbourhood, right below the CEPAC & school.

Passable
Pros:

The lady is very nice and very welcoming, the room was good but no view.
Breakfast was ok

Cons:

Slept 5 hours as it was very noisy, 1 dog was barking lound until 1 am in front of the door and some house us builded just in front and the workers start 6am with really loud music on speakers and has it is a small space it resonnates a lot, maybe would be nice if she asked them to make an effort and not put the music soo early.

Lovely quiet place with breakfast included
Pros:

I like staying with the little family, they had cute chickens and a rooster. I love the view from their house. I had a private balcony in a private apartment with shower, bathroom and dressing room; bed with bug net and a bunch of windows to see the lake outside and volcanoes.

Cons:

The households up pretty high on the hill. You can walk down the hill, but up it was a challenge. It is very steep, warm during the day. So if I had to go to the lake, I sometimes would take a tuk tuk back up for only 10Q.

Amazing homestay
Pros:

This is simply an amazing homestay. A big room with a private rooftoop to see the sunset and sunrise. Everything is perfectly clean! The included breakfast is delicious and everyday something new - amazing.
Finally, Roberto and his family is very nice and supportive but they also leave your private space.
10/10

Supporting the community.
Pros:

Juana the host was very kind and wanted to make sure everything went well. Delicious breakfasts! The room was beautiful, with a mosquito net on the bed. Separate rooms for bath and shower. Large walk in closet.
The view was beautiful if you don’t look down.

Cons:

The location. At the top end of the community, so looking down you see all the unfinished houses, laundry, cables and wires. The property and the entire town is on a steep hill, like 45° angle.
Dogs barking at night woke me up at 3 am. The church started broadcasting at 6 am Sunday morning.

Pros:

We simly loved our stay here! It was amazing to live with a local family for a couple of days. Juanita and Roberto are super lovely and caring. We had great conversations and really felt like home. Everyday we were served a super delicious breakfast. The room (or studio) is very spacious, very nicely decorated and comes with a provate bathroom, lake views and a private rooftop terrace with lake views.
The house is located in the village, uphill from the lancha terminal but can easily be reached by a quick tuk tuk ride or a 20 min walk.

Honestly, this was my favorite place to stay in all of central america! Cannot recommend it enough!

Thank you so much, Juanita and Roberto! ❤️
