My husband and I stayed here one night on our way to San Pedro Sula as we returned from a mission trip in Bonito. At first I felt that I was paying a bit more than I normally would. However, the room was excellent, the service even better. In addition, they provide free transportation in their van. The cost also included a free deluxe, sit-down, linen breakfast with a waiter that was bilingual and was so willing to meet one's every need. My husband said he would definitely return. By the way, the mall and movies was a short walk away.

First of all the front desk receptionist was very unprofessional and disrespectful she had no regards or remorse for anyone. The hotel is quite deplorable the a/c in the room is very old and there is no water or soap in the bathrooms No cold water and for almost 50.00 US a night its basically a waste of time and I would never return to this hotel.

Great place to stay, shared kitchen and awesome common areas with plenty of couches, tables and hammocks. Rooms on the ground floor all seemed to have a musty, moldy smell, that being our room and other travelers we talked to. Perhaps the upstairs rooms are better in that department.

However, avoid room #4 if booking ahead!!!

Room #4 is on the ground level ($40 a night) and two nights in a row we had water from the above room leak through the floor and down into our room. The first time it puddled in the middle of the floor, which we shrugged off, but the second night it leaked all over my wifes luggage, which I don't need to go into detail of how pissed she was.

Also room #4 is the closest room to the kitchen, right beside to be exact, so not the best room if you like to sleep-in, since the kitchen opens at 8:00am with the sounds of crashing pots and pans and voices chuckling about.

I should mention that we don't usually like to be complainers, so we didn't change rooms and the other last few nights we stayed we never had the leaking water troubles again. Maybe the person above was just a slob in the washroom, getting water all over the old wooden floors which have plenty of cracks and gaps.

Anyways, like I said, great place to stay, my advive is to try and get a room upstairs.

PURA VIDA!!!

I called this property after seeing their flyer in the tourist office in La Ceiba, which advertised $35/night. I asked if that was the rate, they quoted me a rate in lempiras, and I said, so $35, right? They said yes, then charged me the equivalent of $50 when I got there. I argued, the staff was unpleasant, but a manager was called in and gave me the room for $40 or so. Irritating.

The hotel is rather dated, and not terribly well maintained, but the room was clean and spacious. There is a rooftop pool, but it was cold and rainy, so we didn't try it out.

All in all, I'd consider staying here again if I was looking for something spacious and near the highway/mall. I took at look at the rooms in Hotel Versalles, near the beach in the Zona Viva, and they were probably a better deal - spacious, US$40/night, and the place has a pool.
