Disliked: Cleanliness
This is a home in a residential neighborhood. Enter through the garage and you do have access to the living room and dining area. You need to have an access code to enter into the neighborhood which makes it difficult for Uber or taxi. Nice clean accommodations but not the hotel I was expecting. The shuttle has limited hours so it didn’t work for our early flight.

It’s not like the pictures, it’s a house divided up into sleeping rooms. There is nothing in walking distance, so you are in a room and that’s it.

We landed here just at dusj. This is a good choice for an early morning flight. It felt very safe and we were able to get a little snack at the store just up the street and sat on the outside patio table. The bed and pillows were comfortable. The hot water was abundant. The lighting was good.

Natalia is lovely and picked us up from the airport. The room was very large and the shower was good. It's in a gated community so feels very safe and is super close to the airport.

The staff at Aurora Express was super friendly & accommodating. We arrived 2 hours before check in and they already had our room ready. Definitely a plus that it’s in a gated community. They only serve breakfast at Aurora Express but my husband and I found a little gem if you’re looking to get dinner, walking distance & delicious home cooked meal. On google maps it says “Changarro de Don Mario” Don Mario is the chef and whatever is on the menu for the day is made to order! It’s a fabulous little place, we can’t wait to go back and eat there.
