Worst hotel I have ever seen in 40 years of travel

I'm an archaeologist and I've stayed in many budget hotels around the world, including others in Belize (e.g., the Venus is San Ignacio is cheaper but clean and friendly), but this place was DISGUSTING. When I arrived, the clueless receptionist in the run-down lobby couldn't find my Hotels.com reservation (even though I could show him it on my phone). After about 45 frustrating minutes the owner took me to the smelly, disgusting room. The bathroom looked like it had never been cleaned (see pics). The air-conditioning was on but could not be adjusted below 30 degrees celsius which is HOT (85 F). The fridge was moldy and plugged into a dangerous-looking outlet with no cover. I didn't even try the TV because the bed did not look clean, and the outdoor hallways were strewn with garbage. I'm an experienced budget traveler, and thought I could handle any hotel but this was just unbelievable. I walked to the Mayan Princess and paid 3X the price but it was worth it to escape that hell hole. Run don't walk from this place.

Location not worth the disgusting conditions

I was shown to a small, dark room with one window that does not open. It smelled musty though it did have a ceiling fan and air conditioning. The door jam looked like it had been broken through and I did not trust the lock to hold. But the bathroom was the worst, truly disgusting. Fixtures were rusted and caked with lime. The rusted broken toilet paper holder was lying on the dirty floor. The shower curtain was so moldy and filthy that I hated to touch it to take a photo of it. The shower grout was filthy and moldy. When I complained I was given probably the best room, larger with several windows (not opening) and definitely brighter. But the shower curtain was again moldy on the bottom though not as disgusting as the other. The shower was a bit cleaner. Floors were very dirty, mold can be seen on the lower part of the walls. A ceiling leak stain was above the bed. I was given 1 towel, 1 paper roll, and 1 small bar of soap. The room had a microwave and small fridge, which was leaking water on the floor because it had not been defrosted. I was given no utensils at all for eating or heating a meal. I had to ask for a single glass. My only recommendation is to have the health department shut this hotel down.

Good value for the price

When I first arrived I was a little disappointed with the condition of the lobby area but the attendant was very accommodating and helpful. When I got to my room it was neat and clean and very useable. It really can't be compared to American standards but I think it's a real good value for the amount I paid.

This hotel was less than a five minute when exiting the ship. I have been here for several weeks and I'm really enjoying it. The hotel staff are professional and friendly. They have been very helpful with me finding my way around the island. The rooms, including linen and mattresses are clean.

Good location but room was falling apart

Great central location and friendly worker but the room itself was terrible. Dirt all over the walls and mold covering the shower. Holes everywhere and the window didnt shut so we had multiple cockroaches and lizards. The shower was so bad my friend didnt use it at all and I only used it once the whole trip. When I did it flooded and a dead roach came up from the drain. Hopefully they plan on fixing the place up asap because it needs it

No pool, even though their website claims to have one. VERY loud. Hotel's landline doesn't work, so no pickup at airport we had to take a taxi. no soap, no shampoo, faucet was missing part of what you turn to get water. No elevator, we had a 3 floor walkup, and the hotel has even higher floors. No view, just traffic.

Lisa, Houston

Disliked: Room comfort
The room I was issued, 12, was accessed by stairs that never seemed to end; it was grueling to have to climb so many stairs, even the locals who visited me, commented on how cumbersome it was to climb the stairs. The hotel is centrally located but the owners don't seem to have genuine interest in making the place more comfortable than the minimum required. For example, the room photos are accurate, however, they were taken when the hotel opened YEARS ago as the bed-linen are worn (VERY worn). I also thought it was pretty telling that the male made the female carry my heavy bag up the "stairway to heaven."
