Family home converted to hotel in great location. Millie and her Mom were waiting for us when we arrived a bit late and took care of everything during our two night stay. It was clean, inexpensive, friendly, and beautiful. Everything we needed.

Leon has no shortage of inexpensive accommodation—indeed, there are plenty of guesthouses in town that are cheaper than Posada Fuente Castalia. But surely there are none more welcoming. Staying here is like staying with a doting aunt who happens to own a colonial hacienda. From the enthusiastic greeting we received when we knocked on the gate to the hugs when... More

They showed us how to get around town, the cheapest way to get to the beach, and dropped us off... More

"Cozy" describes this for a couple of reasons. The rooms are quite small; in my single, I had to keep my suitcase closed up in order to have some floor space. But it's also cozy because of the feeling of being cared for. "Staff" (family members) pay attention to needs and preferences. There are great seating areas, such as an... More

goods: - very very clean - staff and owner welcoming and helpful - nice building bads: - too many and too small rooms - rooms are all facing the small internal court, so it may be noisy - town center is not far but not close - owner lives here (it's her house) and this may be an advantage but...

I have been fortunate to stay at the Posada twice now, and each time my experience has been unforgettable. I have traveled quite a bit, and can honestly say that the Posada is the absolute best place I have stayed. María Teresa and all members of her family are exceptional hosts, and make one feel as though they are a... More

Owner is a doll helping us with any questions we had and making us feel at home. Spacious 170 yr old preserved hacienda centered by lush tropical courtyard. Peaceful indoor /outdoor living, fountain, hammocks, rocking chairs, and welcoming decor spread throughout. Breakfast is excellent with strong coffee. All just 4 blocks from the largest most fascinating cathedral in Central America.... More
