The staff is wonderful. Excellent service and very clean and comfortable rooms. My only complaint would be the beds seem very hard but that would be a personal preference to have a more comfortable bed.

This was my first time in Antigua, Guatemala. I was with a friend. Anyways the staff was so helpful, before I even got there. Before arriving I called a few times with questions about the hostel, transportation to and from the airport etc. The front desk ladies were so sweet and helpful. When we arrived to the hostel we were greeted by an English speaking host who proceeded to give us a tour of the hostel and give us a map of the town. The staff remembered our names, and were always smiling...

Solo traveler. Decided to come back to Guatemala city to enjoy a tour before flying out very early the next day. Marinna Petit Hotel was the perfect location very very clean within minutes to the airport. They offer transportation to the airport. I did not have a chance to try their breakfast as I left at 2:15 in the morning.

All we can say is wow! Could not have picked a more amazing spot to stay while visiting Lake Atitlan. After staying at La Iguana and stopping at other towns on the lake, the only place I would come back to is Santa Cruz and to stay at La Iguana. Felt like a gem and a private oasis. Food and hospitality were unmatched, and the views from our room were hard to beat. We will absolutely be back!

Nice room with lots of storage. Great pillow! Fan was nice to keep room cool. Bathroom was good. Hot water! Coffee in the morning at 6;45am was great before walking over to the airport. I would stay again.

What a great place. Our room (two twin beds) were just as pictured, clean and with mosquito nets. The hotel is a stone's throw away from the entrance to the park. The food is a bit pricey so we opted for some small stands outside the hotels by the center and a comedor near the parking lot for lunch. No complaints about the hotel. Has a foosball and pool table and even a mini theater. Electricity isnt always on, during certain hours, but that wasnt an issue in the slightest. I would come...
