nice and clean, really nice people to be around

very good

This was the second time I stayed here at this family owned hotel and once again I had a great time.  The room is comfortable and the breakfast was very good.  I will definitely stay here again the next time I come to visit León.

We arrived in the evening after a long drive. The staff was very helpful and responsive to our questions about León. The rooms are clean and neat and met our needs as we didn’t plan on spending a lot of time in them. The simple morning breakfast in the open courtyard was well prepared and inviting. The hotel is within easy walking distance of the basilica and shopping.

Little gem close to the basilica

We really enjoyed our stay! Breakfast was delicious, and the staff are great! The room was perfect, it had a nice big bathroom, comfy bed with aircon, what more do you need?

Great option in León

The hotel is located close to the Parque Central, the Cathedral, Museo Rubén Darío, Museo de Arte Fundación Ortiz-Gurdián and good restaurants. It was easy for us to get around from this location, and our host, Humberto, helped us learn about how to navigate León. Other reviewers have mentioned that there aren’t hot showers, but we asked for warm water and our room did have a warm shower. The hotel is simple, but comfortable. The breakfast is simple, but generous. The best thing, for us, was the very helpful host, Humberto. 

Great location, outstanding service,

Very clean room and cool air conditioner. Staff was extremely helpful with tours snd transportation. Good breakfast.

Review of hotel

Like the place it was cozy, not a lot of people but i loved that the service was great the staff very attentive. they were waiting for me and knew who i was, i was shown to the room immediately and once i came out then they did the check in, it was great since i was tired. close to good bars and restaurants and sight seeing areas. i will stay here the next time i am in town. did not get a 5 because the breakfast even though it was okay it was not the best but like i said i will stay there next time i am in town,

good for the money

I got a double bed for $35 including air conditioning.  My stay was nice and comfortable.  There was NO hot water... locals don't care,  but Gringos may. (We are used to hot water) 

The owner keeps the front door closed, but he is always around to open it. It was an overall nice place and the price was ok. I would go back.  

Not bad for the money! 

I booked a room via email. There was no issue with the check in or check out. The hotel is located opposite the Ruben Dario museum. All 4 museums and central park are less than a 10 min walk.

I had my breakfasts at Libelula Cafe which was about 3 buildings away. 

The main door of the building is always shut and you have to ring the bell to enter. Street lights are poor in all countries in the region. At night it did not feel unsafe.

Place is clean, wifi is good and it is in a quieter part of the town. There is a big school on one side of the building so you will hear the occasional cackle during a break.

The only negative comment I have is the owner did not know how far San Juan del Sur was. He said it was 2 hours away when it is about 6. He also tried to sell me a USD 130 ticket while I got one for USD 23 at Gekko Travels.

In the evenings, behind the main cathedral, there are local BBQ stalls. Try them out with the local beer! 


Average clean joint, no breakfast

This hotel is a great budget option and located minutes from the main square.  It is on the opposite end of town from the hostels and backpackers.  The owners were incredibly accommodating  and friendly.  I would recommend it.
