We're thinking of staying here a couple of days before coming to AC, does anybody know anything about the motel?

I've stayed there a few times and would stay tehre again, its clean and nice and has a restaurant on the first floor, open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I've also stayed at the Hiyatt, right across the street which caters more to backpackers (read budget travelers). Its also clean with private baths.

I stayed there for a few days last October and loved it. If you can "splurge", go for the 4th floor room... can't remember the name of it right off the top of my head, but it takes up the entire 4th floor. An amazing space - after long days exploring, it is certainly a welcome place to come back to.

We stayed once at the San Ignacio Resort Hotel sits on the hill above the city over looking jungle and Mecal River with both rooms and cabanas w/ baths. It has a pool and a nice restuarant.

Thank you all for the information, I think we'll give it a try!

Like Silkpainter, I stayed at the Hi-Eight. I was charmed by the couple who run it and had breakfast in the wonderful courtyard at Martha's.
Enjoy - which ever one you choose.

Martha's now also has an "annex." Casa Blanca Guesthouse is another very nice place, slightly upmarket from Martha's, just a couple of blocks away from the original Martha's, on Burns.

Thanks again everybody, I appreciate any information I can get.

What sort of price is the hi eight ?

About $25/nt (USD) I believe, or less for shared bath. Cute place. Very clean. Cool, interesting owner.
