The hotel is in a good location, it is in a more secluded area, but is relatively close to the main street and the ferries.
Clean and comfortable rooms, and staff allowed for early check-in which was very convenient.

I would recommend the facility owners to install smaller lamps next to the bed as there is only the bright main light.

This place has everything you need for a short art in Pana. Rooms are clean, there is kitchen and terrace. We were allowed to check in early, which we really appreciated. There is drinking water provided.

Clean, comfy and quiet (other than the occasional barking dog during the day), nice staff, good hot water. Tough to find. No signage except for a mural except for a mural on their wall clear down at the end of the walkway. Ask people on the street. They'll point the way.

Don’t trust the fake 5 star reviews. No hot water, essentially no wifi, ants in the room, open air to the outside so bugs and cat/dog noises all night long. Don’t be fooled like I was

We stayed here for one night. Hotel is located a quick walk to the most busier Santander Street with many shops and restaurant. So it was very convenient. You have to go thru some alies to get to the hotel, but it is super safe. Staff is so friendly and accomodating. They truly make you feel welcome. Room was clean and in good condition. Bathroom was in great shape too and clean, however, if I have to suggest anything is that they replace the shower head. At least in our room it was dirty and some might think disgusting. Still for the rest and their staff I will give this a 5 star review stay.

We enjoyed our stay here. A warning that it’s down a dark alley way and a little hard to find, but the staff sent arrival details prior which helped us find it. Gorgeous terrace upstairs, free water and good water pressure in the shower.

Be aware that this is a *budget* option, and the location and rooms reflect that! It is an odd spot to get to, down a couple of residential alleys, although we never felt unsafe. The building itself is cute, with a nice rooftop and second level kitchen.

We were there in early May and it was a little cooler than other times, which was a godsend because our room (#8) had NO windows and just a fan. (I don’t thin the rooms with windows had screens.) The only light was the overhead, nothing bedside, though there were a decent number of outlets. The bathroom is small, and they put out little packets of shampoo, etc. Hot water was good.

Depending on what you’re used to, this could be a step up from a hostel or down from a spendier place. We probably wouldn’t return, but it definitely wasn’t terrible and the people were great, as are most Guatemalans. 🙂

Great price for close to all the restaurants.

Loud barking dogs all night right next to room number 1, which is also right by the front desk which isn’t great if loud people are checking out early. The hotel graciously moved me to a quieter room for my second night. Much better when not in room #1.

Good property for the price. No amenities at all but the rooms are clean and the water hot. The noise problem is not the fault of the hotel, but if you’re staying at a budget hotel, there’s other budget people staying there. Sometimes they can be a little ignorant to other people’s sleep and there’s loud talking and door slamming early in the morning as they prepare to leave.

This is an excellent find for solo budget travellers. The rooms were very clean and well lit with many charge ports. There is nice attention to detail in the room with hooks in many places, shelves for belongings and alcoves in the bathroom to place your toiletries. The entrance seemed a little dubious at first given that it is an alley way down another alleyway, but it is well lit with many people travelling back and forth and many small locals and residences, it felt safe. I did not use the kitchen but it was clean and seemed to have everything you would need yo cook. They also provide drinking water to re-fill your bottles with. I would stay here again and would recommend it as a grest budget option.

The place was a bit hatd to find. I went down the wrong alley. The alley is busy, lots of motorcycles and tuk-tuks pass by so be careful. Our stay was fine for the price I can't complain. Staff is very nice and helpful. Our room was a bit hot and stuffy since we didnt gave aby windows. The fan inside did help though.

Affordable stay, minimal comfort

You get what you pay for. The price is good, but the room is window-less, which is not very comfortable. There were a plentitude of flies in the room, also not so comforting. While the hotel is a convenient walk from the main streets of town and the ferry terminal, it could be a bit challenging to find as it's at the end of an unmarked alley. There was no hot water in the shower.

Esta ubicado en un callejon rebuscado, pero el personal del hotel automaticamente me envio las instrucciones detalladas de como llegar. Con las instrucciones se llega facil. El area en el callejon no me gusto por sus condiciones, oscuridad por la noche, es bien estrecho y se dificulta caminar cuando pasan motoras y tuk tuks por el area y por un perro que habia en el techo de una casa. Ahora, por el precio la posada me gusto mucho, estaba super limpia y acogedora. El abanico que tienen enfria bien el cuarto. Tiene tv y wifi. El servicio me gusto. Extendi mi estadia alli. Queda “walking distance” de la embarcadora, de restaurantes, artesanos, lugares turisticos, etc.

Very hard to find. You must walk to this hotel - first down an alleyway too small for cars, but big enough for the tuk-tuks, then turn down a smaller alley about 50 yards - no indication you are going in the right direction. Once you enter the hotel, it has a nice open air lobby. Hotel room was clean, but not a single window. Water pressure was excellent with plenty of hot water (the only hot water we had in Guatemala). Location close to most everything once you figure out how to get there.

Properly is very nice, small but nice. The staff is very friendly. Only down side is that they have no on site parking and you have to walk quite a bit from the nearest parking, make sure you pack light or have friends or family help with luggage. The hotel pays for the parking though. Good walking distance from the lake and immediate access to shopping.

Very clean but affordable. Its good price is maybe due to a little bit strange location as it is not on a major road. But the alley to the hotel is very safe and actually very busy with motocycles and tuktuks. At first glance, it is very difficult to figure out how to get there. Google map's walking direction is not correct. But if you contact the hotel (I did it gia WhatsApp.), they will send you very detailed instructions with photos of alleys. Don't worry about the location. It's only 1-2 minutes of walking on a small but safe alley.

GREAT DEAL

Nothing beats an affordable accomodation that, offers clean, safe and quiet sanctuary.

Location is an excellent GATEWAY to other villages in Lake Atitlan. Countless choices of restaurants, stores, hotels and spas.

One highlight of this place is its SMART TV. On this day and age, that’s how you connect to the world.

It’s not a 4 or 5 star hotel. But it delivers what traveler needs. As a family business, you feel its hospitable atmosphere.

EDWIN, one of the owners, will welcome you with a personal WhatsApp message. You’d feel their commitment to make your stay enjoyable.

I highly recommend.
