Lovely place, pretty calm, right in front of the Petén Itzá Lake, where you can take a swim.

Beautiful lake view
Great location, friendly staff and clean. Had a good stay here. Beds were good, air condition in the dorm (!!!) and locker as well. Great sunset view over the lake from both the pool and restaurant.

Very good
I stayed in a shared room and the hotel delivered what it promised. The staff were very kind, as I was leaving very early, they prepared a snack for me to take with me, which was very kind. The cleaning is good but it miss in the details, and the comfort is what you would expect from a shared room. The view from the common area is beautiful, and the pools are very good.

good staff. good location
Special mention to the front desk person Sandy. She really helped me out with flight changes, went above and beyond. The room was nice, sharing one bathroom with 6 people it was quite dirty but once the cleaners came through it was fine. great location and if you aren't there in the morning for breakfast they make a sandwich for you to take with you.

Programe mal mi reservación. Me confundí de día y llegué un día después . Y por obvias razones solo aproveche el desayuno que venía incluido, me bañe y salí rumbo a otro lugar
No pusieron el aire acondicionado. Supuestamente lo enciende a las 8 pm y no lo hicieron. El internet nunca funcionó y lo reporte y nunca lo arreglaron.

Muito bom
Adorei o Hostel. Localização perfeita, mesmo em frente ao lago e junto a muitos restaurantes. Com piscina. Pequeno almoço variado e muito bom.
Apenas o check in foi mais demorado do que devia. Não estavam a encontrar a minha reserva. De resto tudo perfeito.

Great Hostel
This was the best hostel we stayed at in Guatemala. The service is great and the hostel itself is very nice. The breakfast was also very good and they have a variety to choose from.

El hotel es perfecto para un grupo de amigos. Hay dormitorios pequeños solo para dormir y cuartos más grandes. El restaurante LA CHAYA es el mejor de todo Flores!
