Good staff, food was good. Staff call at weird times sometimes to ask about stuff. Outdated rooms, wall paper peeling. Beds are good but don’t have protective covers on them or pillows so not sure how they keep them clean between visitors. Shower not very clean, no AC, and windows don’t have a net or screens to keep out bugs so mosquitoes come in sometimes when you leave them open. Floors of room were generally clean.

I have stayed at Hotel Lobelia many times. It is conveniently close to the airport and a great price. The staff is always helpful. The rooms are a little dated and there is no air conditioning, but overall I really like this hotel especially for the price they charge.
