They renovated their rooms and have extremely comfy beds!!! It's a classic from Belize I highly recommend. The only thing is they dont have an elevator so be mindful of bags and stairs.

10/10 Exceptional

I agree with the other reviews. Great value for the money. However, it is not a resort or a luxurious hotel. Nevertheless there is everything you want, AC in the bed room (only), a view, a pool (i didn't use, i hate hotel pools), decent breakfast, good wifi, clean bathroom and tv with all the us channels (only watched the news). There is a very nice resting area behind the hotel, a bit hidden, right next to the pool.

Nice place it was clean and people are friendly. But it’s not in a great area, there is limited food available. We ended up at the restaurant in the hotel next door, overpriced and limited options. I probably would not stay there again.
Verified Travelocity guest review

6/10 Good

Was a good option to stay to do the tours in the area. Pretty comfortable and the common areas like the pool were nice and relaxing. The room cleaning and the restaurant need more attention- breakfast was really limited and overpriced. Better to go to Martha’s for breakfast. Staff was friendly at front desk and helpful.

Great staff and the property is very clean. For people that like to get up early and walk or run it is a great location. The road right outside the property runs along the sea and is very well lit. Lots of dining options nearby. I would have given it 5 stars except the WiFi in our room wasn’t very good
