Location - It is in zone 10 which is a safe zone and 15-mins drive from the La Aurora International Aiport.
Shuttle service- They charged $15.00 USD one way. It is not an actually bus or van which I am accustom seeing in other countries but it is a regular cab service they used. They sent one can for 4 persons with 4 large suitcases, we had to squish together in the backseat. I strongly advise to use an Uber it’s what cheaper. The Uber service in Guatemala City is cheap and convenient.
Balcony room- it is more of a huge window with a step out. Cannot really sit outside and it is not much different than the regular rooms so save your money.
Cleanliness - Housekeeping came everyday but the tiles in the shower between the grout needed scrubbing,
Beverage area- there is a Nescafé Agustin machine and you get 2 pods, one caffeinated and another decaffeinated; this coffee is better than what they serve at breakfast which seems to be watered down. Housekeeping sometimes forgets to refill this area.
Complimentary breakfast- this was okay. You get an omelette station, assortment of pastries/breads, hot food section - always beans, plantain, sausage, scramble eggs and a Guatemala dish like tamales. Basically same everyday but you can choose to go to a hotel without breakfast options as there is tons of places to dine or cafes to go to.
This is a budget hotel great for groups.
The service staff at breakfast were very accommodating and kind
