Hotel Berena

"Room size is great. Views amazing, lots of places to chill"

"Kitchen a bit small"

"For the price this place was brilliant - exceptionally clean, private room, amazing view, decent kitchen"

"Aucun."

"Super clean and has everything you need for a tiny price which is amazing. The views are great and the kitchen is cute. There is free water and the rooms are super clean and the beds good enough! It’s actually very quick to get to once you ignore google map’s bad route."

"The internet isn’t really working and there isn’t very good mobile reception either up there. The shower has almost zero water pressure and you need cash to pay which is very inconvenient and n a location where there is one atm that only works a couple of times a week. It’s been majorly frustrating."

"The hotel is fine, there is a nice view - sunrise 🌅 and you see the Fuego if you are lucky 😊 Rooms are good too. Small but okay. As everywhere the walls are thin ;) but thats just that. Kitchen is well equipment - but also very small can get crowded. Warm water is also available"

"Roosters, dogs, etc - it's very loud there😂"

"It's high on the hill away from the tourist area with a magnificent view of the lake, but its only about 6 or 7 minites walk to hippy highway if you want it or the same to la Reserva to swim in the lake. There is a large fridge freezer and small kitchen to use. The patio is swept daily and the local caretakers are responsive to requests. I was on the upper level with private bathroom and the matress and pillows on the bed were súper comfortable."

"There is a power tower in the vicinity which is ugly but necessary, so I just always looked the other way. Sometimes the pueblo doesn't have water, not the fault of the property, but the guests leave all their washing up mess in the kitchen. I kept 2x litre bottles of tap water in my room for when this happened so i could flush the loo and wash my hands."

"The view is amazing, the rooms were very clean. Having the hammock is nice. Good size room. Very good for the price. Very close to everything in the downtown area."

"Very very noisy the walls must be made from paper. The staff could be a little friendlier. But never had any issues, the shared shower was really not comfortable due to lack of cleanliness. There should be mirrors and garbages in the rooms. If these things were met I would have given a 10. Also a better explanation how to get to the hotel because the long way around GPS directs you to is treacherous. Very steep there's a much easier way from the first road."

"Closer than it seems on the map. Google maps takes you a weird direction. Turn left down the alleyway where the Blind Lemon is. Don’t go up the hill it will take you much steeper route. Overall it was a good property, close to all amenities, had a kitchen, hammock, and WiFi which is what we wanted. View was also stunning. You get what you pay for."

"Shower curtain fell off after 1 second of shower use and it is a little noisy. Bring earplugs."

"This is a cracker of a property. Brand new, spacious ensuite rooms with, wait for it, 2 bathmats! Comfy bed. Views. Easy walk into town. Good kitchen with brand new appliances. Great value. Stay here before they jack up the rates."

"Sadly all those other reviews you're reading are 100% accurate. It's dreadfully noisy, even for Latin America. Bring earplugs and keep your stay short."

"Epic views to be enjoyed from your personal hammock, comfy bed, warm shower (the pressure sucks but it’s guate, warm water is a win), solid wifi, kitchen had everything i needed to make a meal. Bring ear plugs."

"directions on how to get there…my tuk tuk driver never heard of berena and dropped me off at the wrong location, had to catch another one who luckily knew where it was. Go past Blind Lemon, past Luna Roja, turn left into an alley beside Coffee Masters (the alley is not sketchy at all, not sure what other reviewers are complaining about), then it’s a 50 m hike up to Berena once you turn left at Golden House."

"the location and the view are incredible spacious rooms clean kitchen"

"it ia really loud at night :( dogs are barking the entire night and chicken"
