Yo no cambio Michanti...
Pros:

Llevo varios años yendo al Hotel Michanti. Y el hecho que vuelva una y otra vez lo dice todo. Es muy lindo, super limpio, bien cuidado y muy cómodo. El staff le pone mucha atención a los detalles, como poner tu nombre en la puerta de tu cuarto. Excelente servicio y personal muy atento y amable (lo cual no es lo usual en El Salvador). La comida es buena y con opciones sanas. El jardín es fresco y se disfruta mucho para la siesta o leer un libro. La ubicación es muy buena en el pueblo de El Zonte. Puedes caminar a cualquier lugar dentro del pequeño pueblo frente al mar. Y aunque el hotel no esté frente a la playa, está muy cerca y la caminada de 2 cuadras bajo la sombra es muy agradable y te permite "mezclarte" con el lugar. Es una rica caminada muy relax que sirve como "warm up" para antes de surfear o simplemente disfrutar.

Perfect little spot in El Zonte !
Pros:

The staff were so kind and helpful. The property is not right in the midst of the busy area but it’s just a short 10 min walk to all the main restaurants. The beach is so close but Michanti has a really awesome pool too. The rooms were perfect for what I needed.

Cons:

I had no issue - but if you are a very light sleeper or working from your room, the sound from outside is very prominent.

Fantastic staff and comfortable stay!
Pros:

Very comfortable stay with a clean, spacious room and genuinely helpful reception staff. A special thank you to Yaricza, who went above and beyond to help me when I was in a pinch getting to the airport—I really appreciated it!

Cons:

Food was quite expensive and there were not many guests around, so it was quite quiet, but this may have been because of low season starting.
