I loved that El Carmen hotel was in the middle of all the activities and nightlife. It was super convenient to walk and safe. The Guatemalan people were very friendly and the food was exceptional. Breakfast was great and the view of the mountains were spectacular. I totally enjoyed my stay there and will return some day.
