Absolute Gem-- Garden Oasis
Pros:

What a gem! This place exceeded expectations. In the centre of the busting town, lies this gorgeous garden oasis with large flowering trees and plants, tastefully decorated lounge areas and spacious rooms, in an enclosed secure garden space. The staff was fantastic and so helpful. We also had a car and there was free parking down the road. 100% recommend.

Cons:

nothing- it was great.

Very misleading description of facilities. Poor customer service.
Pros:

The building was a charming, well maintained Spanish style hotel with a lovely garden.
My room was small, with barely enough room to walk on both sides of the full bed, and only a small rack on which to hang clothes and no place large enough to open my suitcase, except on top of the bed.

Cons:

The description says clearly that there is a restaurant that serves breakfast and dinner, and the hours are clearly listed as being from 7:00 to 22:00. However, they actually only serve breakfast from 7am to 10:30am.

The description also states that there is a coffee house on site; there is not.

This might not be a problem for some visitors, but I specifically chose the hotel because of these options. I was only staying in Coban overight. I had arrived tired after a 14 hour bus ride, planning to have dinner on site, go to sleep, get up and have breakfast and get back on a bus for another long trip the following day. Instead of relaxing. I had to walk around the town in the rain looking for a place to eat dinner.
When I brought this incorrect description to the attention of the owner, he did not apologise; his response was "In all the decades we've been open, we've never served anything but breakfast." I responded that, as a guest reading the description, I had no way of knowing that, and that I had very specifically been looking for lodgings with a restaurant on-site. He said they would alter the description, but several days later, prior to writing this review, the description has not been changed.

In terms of overall "customer service" and intent to be "accommodating", I give this hotel a very low rating.

Un jardin divin au sein de la ville de Coban dans une des 5 demeures coloniales existantes
Pros:

Le propriétaire aime les fleurs et son jardin est ravissant. Il a également une collection d’objets en fer forgé qui amènent une âme à l’établissement.

Cons:

J’ai trouvé le matelas inconfortable mais ma fille ça ne l’a pas gênée. Notre chambre n’avait pas de fenêtre et la salle de bain est un peu vieux jeu.

Cons:

Nulla.

Estadía perfecta a un excelente precio y con excelente servicio
Pros:

Eddy que es la persona de mantenimiento y limpieza es super amable y con una excelente actitud. A pesar que tenía mucho que hacer siempre estaba dispuesto a ayudar y dar un excelente servicio.

Cons:

El hotel tiene parqueo pero está a una cuadra el hotel, lo que dificulta entrar y salir. Otra cosa es que algunas habitaciones dan a la calle y se escucha el ruido de los carros
