Love Xela

Fue una maravilla quedarme aquí. Del momento en que llegué hasta que me fui, las personas del hotel me trataron de forma increíble. Muy atentos con el esguince que tenía, muy amigables, y pacientes con todas las preguntas que les hacía (era mi primera vez en Xela). El hotel es muy limpio, la cama cómoda, y es tiene un ambiente bastante calmadito. Descansé muy bien. Y por la cercanía al parque central, pude ver varias cosas, aún con mi pie malito. Next time I am in the city, I will stay here.

Great Bargain in Xela

Very conveniently located, well-kept, and well-run. The bar in the corner made for some inevitable late-night racket. Gabby, who tended to things, was extremely helpful and pleasant and even helped us wrestle our luggage a block to our shuttle. Be sure to visit the Fuentes Georgina’s outside of Xela and go to the less developed pools downstream.
