Excelente hostel !!
Alejandro Cesar, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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!

2/10 Poor

Bad room with no windows and too much people in it

We booked a room with 2 other friends. Should have been a 4 bed dorm. But they told us the don‘t have it and we need to share with 2 other people. The room is way to small for 6 people and it was a really bad smell and a higher humidity than in the jungle. The location is good and breakfast is good as well. But the room was a disaster and really ungealthy to sleep there
Remo, 2-night trip

Nice hostel

Great hostel with hotel features, fantastic service, clean, hotwater, breakfast but can be very noisy at night due to the local club
1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Noise a problem

A great hostel with a gorgeous little swimming pool, amazing staff, clean hot running water, a/c, free breakfast. Modern, Just such a shame about the noise from the local club, if you're up for 3am for a sunrise tour at tikal expect little sleep
1-night trip

6/10 Good

Amazing hostel if only.........

The hostel would be amazing place to stay, great staff , amazing location, beautiful views, decent breakfast, clean rooms and bathrooms with hotwater. if it wasn't for the noise from the club down the road it's so loud that it's a constant thumping til 1am every night even with ear plugs I found very difficult to get any sleep, plus the heat is very uncomfortable. In the dorms the A/c is on from 8pm

8/10 Very good

Good place to stay

I spent a night in Flores before traveling to Tikal, so I’m basing this of one night. I rented a hostel for 5 and were given a room with six beds. I was a bit skeptic at first since I read there was no AC, but our hostel had one and we had no issues with it so that was great. The location was perfect and we were given a complimentary breakfast which was tasty. I have no complaints other than them asking 100Q for a key and 10Q per towels which we were not informed about. This part was a bit of an inconvenience as we had no money and couldn’t pay with my card. I had to go to a atm which wasn’t far, but I wish they would’ve told me about it in advance. Other than that the location, atmosphere, and food was good. Would definitely stay here again.

Great value, great service, highly recommend

Spent 2 nights here in a dorm at end of February. Absolutely great stay - great service by Juan, nice breakfast, very good value for money. Nice pool ( cool water) but comfortable sun lounges overlooking the lake. Wifi all good.
