The pool and fitness center were perfect for relaxation after a busy day exploring nearby attractions.
The shower was slightly difficult to operate, requiring a bit of effort to switch the water from the bath tap to the shower head.

Helpful luggage storage for my adventures.
The staff was unhelpful and seemed disinterested in assisting guests. I had a frustrating experience when I tried to retrieve my lost cellphone, and despite calling multiple times, they didn’t provide clear instructions. The check-in process took too long, making the start of my stay stressful.

We had an awesome time at this hotel with friends after visiting Tikal and Lake Atitlan. The breakfast was great, and the hotel has a fantastic pool area. I loved that they let us store our luggage for free between trips, which was super helpful.
The check-in process took a bit long because there was only one person at the front desk, which made it frustrating for us and other guests waiting.

missingWrote a review on 12 Janduplex suiteoutstanding poolcomfortable pillowshousekeeping issues
The duplex suite offered incredible space, comfortable down pillows, and consistent high-speed internet. The pool area is outstanding and perfect for families, providing a great spot for relaxation after a busy day.
Encountered issues with housekeeping—only one hand towel provided for four people and a lack of washcloths, which might not sit well with everyone. The shower water fluctuated from scalding to cold, not ideal for a refreshing wash. Additionally, the lack of clear shuttle information left me to rely on taxi rides, which could easily cause confusion for travelers needing precise transportation details.
