Pros:

Great budget hotel. The resident Parrot Capricio is absolutely adorable and will greet you with a Hola or Hello. This hotel has great hot water. This may be the best, hottest shower that you take while you are in Guatemala. Wifi is fast and reliable. Comfy bed. Calm atmosphere. Free Guatemalan coffee everyday. A great value for the money located in the heart of Panajachel. You can walk to everything.

Cons:

There was nothing I did not like.

Pros:

La ubicación, cerca del lago en la calle principal cerca de todo. La amabilidad del personal, té y café disponible sin cargo. Tranquilo ya q está hacia el fondo no da a la calle, seguro. Información y facilitan contratar tours y transportes. Solucionaron enseguida los problemas con la habitación dándonos otra más confortable.

Cons:

La primer habitación que nos asignaron no salía agua caliente y se sentía olor a baño, pedimos cambio y lo hicieron sin problema y sin cargos. La escalera para subir a las habitaciones pero en general todo muy bien.

Great room
Pros:

Set back a bit from the street so you don’t hear too much of the club noise (unless it’s karaoke). Clean and comfortable room, good ceiling fan (essential) and streaming services on the TV. Great stay.
