The hotel is located right in the middle of everything. So expect noise from the street cars and vendors from 7am until midnight. We only stayed one night, so we just dealt with it. Another thing, our toilet didn’t flush. I told the front desk about it around 2 in the morning, but they never came the next day. Also, my grandma was in a wheel chair. No one told us there was a ramp in the back of the hotel thru the garage, so we had to haul her chair and everything up the stairs thru the lobby. We didn’t know about the ramp until the next day when we were leaving already. Very sad that the front desk ladies didn’t bother to tell us, yet we were struggling. Also, they weren’t as friendly. Seemed miserable and not even a smile when we’d speak to them.

I can't say enough about how great the staff here was. They were lovely, kind, and helpful. However, anyone staying here must be aware of one huge issue. The property is located near a busy pedestrian and auto intersection, and is extremely noisy from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Drivers laying into their horns, motorcycles revving, and street vendors shouting on megaphones all day long. This is not a place for peace and quite. Also the nearby church (Iglesia San Francisco) participates in the Guatemalan tradition of bombas, or fireworks for over three hours as a call to prayer. It was ear-shatteringly and heart-stoppingly cacophonous. I, unfortunately, would never want to stay here again.
