- Yara Adilia (8/5): - I really like staying here its convenient, but the shuttle wasn’t there to pick me up to take me to the airport, even though I scheduled it, they did call an “ In driver “ but I didn’t feel safe I was scared to get a car like that, that could be dangerous .
- Victor (10/5): - I like the service, the property is near to the airport, my wife and I, love this place.
- William (10/5): - This is THE place to stay for a night or more in Guatemala City.
Clean, lovely, comfy, and the staff understands hospitality.
Couple that with the fact that it’s 5 minutes from the airport, in a gates/guarded colonia, and it’s the obvious choice.
- jose (10/5): - It is extremely secure and also gated community By the way, there is no store nearby walking distance parking is limited customer service, very limited Only till 9 P.M.
no a/c But price is right room is very cosy small is hosting by the Owner, and you can get in touch with Owner anytime after hours.
- Shaun (10/5): - Great host, nice area.

- JUAN PALACIOS (10/5): - Nice
- Pedro (10/5): - All good, only one point to mention , the lock for room number 6 was broken I believe safety is priority so please fix the lock for room number 6 privacy is very important and locking the door of the room should be a high concern and fix it ,,,,, other then that all was good
- Pedro (10/5): - Absolutely loved it! Very clean and cozy.

- Priscila Oliveira (8/5): - Family style
- Juan (10/5): - Very nice and cleans. Nice people pick me up from the airport.
- Kathleen (6/5): - It was beautiful interior, but being woked on and very noisy but clean. No oriention to public spaces. No front desk? All communique was done via whats app; even when in hotel. I did fall asleep early and am not aware if more interaction with manager in evening? There was no confirmation of next day shuttle arrangements
The young lady who helped me to my room was very nice, but left and couldnt be found again
In the morning, while waiting for my pick.up ride I did find a lovely patio, deck area with dorms off of it, but it was down a set of stairs in garage. It was just unusual. All worked out.
- Linda (10/5): - What a lovely place! The staff member who met me at the door was kind and thoughtful, and the room is large and comfortable. It's very peaceful, and I had a good night's sleep and a delicious tipico breakfast before my flight. They arranged free transport to the airport with a friendly driver. I will definitely be recommending Aurora Express to friends.
- Michelly (10/5): - Friendly staff and easy to schedule transportation to the airport. Beautiful view while eating breakfast and as far as aesthetics well, 10 out of 10 ☺️.
- Teresa (10/5): - The staff was friendly and we liked the property. There are no elevators and stairs to go to our room. The view was great. Breakfast was available on request for Q50.
- nduka (10/5): - Host was hospitable, kind and went the extra mile to pick me up from the airport for free and arranged a driver to take we around the town. Accommodation is in a gated estate, secured, good size room and very clean. Breakfast was good too.
- Elizabeth (10/5): - Excellent location and quiet
- maria luisa (10/5): - Excelente lugar para hospedarse. Las señoritas del servicio muy amables. Gracias por hacer de nuestras vacaciones en su hotel maravillosas
- Esvin (10/5): - The area around the property is very safe.
- James (4/5): - This is a home in a residential neighborhood. Enter through the garage and you do have access to the living room and dining area. You need to have an access code to enter into the neighborhood which makes it difficult for Uber or taxi. Nice clean accommodations but not the hotel I was expecting. The shuttle has limited hours so it didn’t work for our early flight.
- Gordon (10/5): - Absolutely wonderful experience!! Would definitely recommend. My flight was very early, so was not able to try the recommended excellent breakfast. Will stay here next visit to Guatemala City. Thank you !!
- Tiffany (10/5): Muy bueno - Bastante agradable la estadía, las chicas son bastante serviciales y amables
- Adan (6/5): - The hotel is in private community, you passing gates to in and out, you said parking included, you park on the street, is only one person, no reception desk, we left the hotel about six in the morning, we looking for human person to inform we are leaving, nothing we left the key in one area that believe, some one is going to pick up, not good at all
- Kim (10/5): - Great staff & safe place. Easy drive to and from the airport.
- Karla (10/5): - Everything was great except I booked this hotel for the free shuttle but come to find out it does not run after a certain time. Bummer. Everything else was great. Very clean and quiet.
- Michelle (4/5): - It’s not like the pictures, it’s a house divided up into sleeping rooms. There is nothing in walking distance, so you are in a room and that’s it.
- Dennis (10/5): - Nancy was helpful and friendly
- Oksana (10/5): - We booked last minute and appreciated all the help and care the staff provided.
- Richard (10/5): - We landed here just at dusj. This is a good choice for an early morning flight. It felt very safe and we were able to get a little snack at the store just up the street and sat on the outside patio table. The bed and pillows were comfortable. The hot water was abundant. The lighting was good.
- Francisco (4/5): - El lugar es bonito. Sencillo pero no ofrecen ningun servicio nunca habia nadie que te atendiera siempre solo si nesecitabas algo. La persona de servicio no podia hacer nada no habia desayuno ni cafe ni ningun servicio de comida al regreso salia muy temprano al.aeropuerto y no habia quien me llevara al.aeropuerto y tuve que buscar un taxi deberia tener un servicio mas personal no me.gusto para nada
- Megan (10/5): - Natalia is lovely and picked us up from the airport. The room was very large and the shower was good. It's in a gated community so feels very safe and is super close to the airport.
- Guillermo (10/5): Un lugar perfecto para una estancia silenciosa. - Excelente atención del persona, muy atentos. Desayuno muy rico. Recomendado.
- Kim (10/5): - The staff at Aurora Express was super friendly & accommodating. We arrived 2 hours before check in and they already had our room ready.
Definitely a plus that it’s in a gated community.
They only serve breakfast at Aurora Express but my husband and I found a little gem if you’re looking to get dinner, walking distance & delicious home cooked meal. On google maps it says “Changarro de Don Mario” Don Mario is the chef and whatever is on the menu for the day is made to order! It’s a fabulous little place, we can’t wait to go back and eat there.
- Gary A (6/5): - The Property would be a nice Bed and Breakfast but it is not a convenient option for airport users. The property appears to be run by two teenage girls who promised to call me taxi at 4AM because their airport shuttle doesn't start till daytime. It is a gated community so I didn't think I could Uber a ride. I had to stomp around the house yelling after trying to call their number and using the door buzzer before someone awoke. This delayed my airport arrival and added additional stress to a 5:20 AM international flight.
- Keith (10/5): - Staff went out of their way to help us with everything!
- Deborah (10/5): Great budget hotel - The place is a great budget hotel. The staff here are so friendly and sweet. And there are fresh flowers to greet you in a common areas. When you see the dining room and the mountain views from the dining room with the large table. You'll think you're in your grandma's house. It is a little noisy because it's next to the airport. But it does back to a big beautiful. Open area call drewn looking area. So there's lots of birds to listen to also. What's most important is the bed. Is comfortable clean and so is the bathroom. You might not have hot water. But it's plenty warm here anyway. It.
Is in a gated village area and so there are no restaurants nearby. But they will call you a driver so you can go to restaurants on the other side of the airport where there are many.
- ROGER (10/5): - This is the perfect place to stay if you're flying too late or if you need to fly out in the morning.The staff is excellent.The rooms are wonderful and it is very peaceful
- jose (10/5): - beautiful place only problem was it's gated community have to show id everytime you leave and come in
- Anjanette (10/5): - Best place to stay in Guatemala near the airport we were a group of 6 and it was pretty big and spacious for all of us and they have room service as well I will keep the info save for next time I go to Guatemala.
- Benjamin (10/5): - Muy buen lugar
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great place to stay - If you want a nice room to stay at this is the place if you don't mind a house. No nightlife. Tranquil. Gated community. Host was very friendly.
- Giovanni (10/5): - Just as described.
- ELVIA (10/5): - The girls super friendly the free Shuttle to aeroport was super helpful and convenient. Thanks..
- nancy (10/5): - It's like being home ❤️
- Brenda (10/5): - The homeade breakfast was delicious and the staff were so lovely.
- herlin (10/5): - Perfecto
- William (10/5): - Love staying at Aurora Express. Natalia and her team have always taken great care of my family. We are. Family of 7 and she was willing to pick us up at the airport with all our luggage. The family room works wonderfully for us and the breakfast the next morning is always well done and welcomed after a day of travel.
- Howard (10/5): - The service was excellent. The girls had a sweet spirit nad worked hard to accommodate our needs.
- Chimene (10/5): - Very hospitable hosts and comfortable guest house in close proximity to the airport
- ana (10/5): - Muy bien todo
- Andrew (10/5): awesome - the owners was very helpful.
- Aida (10/5): - Gracias por su hospitalidad todo estuvo muy bien espero regresar pronto
- Lina (8/5): - Our stay was excellent. Very clean room, but there were many spiders. The staff were friendly and helpful. The transportation to the airport was a big perk— nice Mercedes ride. The common areas are super cute and accessible to all. However, there are stairs throughout, which may be a problem for some people, but did not bother us. Nice deck views.
- Natalia (8/5): - Solo estuve por unas horas me funcionó bastante porque estaba cerca del aeropuerto. La metodología de auto servicio estaba buena. Estaba limpio y la cama buen tamaño y muy cómoda.
- Methuna (10/5): - Great staff! Well maintained property.
- Manuel (8/5): - Property needs a little fixing. The showerhead in the bathroom was not putting a decent amount of water pressure & the hot water in the bathroom faucet was not working plus a window panel was missing in the bathroom and it got a little chilly. But except for that it was a decent place with friendly staff
- Edwin (10/5): - N/O
- Ezequiel (10/5): - Good
- Jay (10/5): - I liked this place because it felt relatively safe. Its located within a gated community so theres a little more sense of security, however, its backyard is a dark forested area. Ive stayed at places within the same community that felt a little lore comfortable. Theres not much staff on hand and no food options in the area, so bring some snacks in case you get hungry. Theres a water dispenser to fill water bottles in the kitchen but thats about it. I also didn't like that i didn't have a key to my room so i didn't want to leave anywhere because i would have had.to leave my room door unlocked. Youll pretty much be on your own through the night because no staff will be there. Overall, i liked the place. Just wish there were a few more food/drink/entertainment options. My room didn't even have a tv so youll probably just be on your phone for entertainment. They do have free wifi
- Jose (10/5): - Good
- Jacqueline (10/5): Good value - Good value, very clean and spacious room.
- Miguel (10/5): - Good value, very clean and spacious room.
- Andre (8/5): Recommend when traveling. - Close to the airport. Safe and comfortable.
- Andrew Janet (10/5): - Great staff.
- Elayne (10/5): - Beautiful and quiet with a quaint feel unlike a hotel. Owners were very nice and accommodating.
- Jose (8/5): - Liked this place, keep coming back to enjoy.

Room great

I would stay here again bc
- Johanna (10/5): - Its really close to the airport therefore its very convenient
- LUIS G (10/5): - Nicely
- Lissett (10/5): - Gates and close to the airport. Big and clean rooms.
- Amalia (4/5): - No me gusto que al querer salir la seguridad no me dejaba porque no le daba la dirección completa, yo le di el nombre del hotel y necio que yo tenía que darle la dirección 😡
- Jeff (10/5): - Thank you
- Vophsie (10/5): - Wonderful stay!! Quiet. The breakfast (surcharge) was excellent. I will definitely stay again when the opportunity arises. Thank you Natalia and I can’t wait to return!!
- Andrew (8/5): - Friendly helpful staff even with the language barrier. Close to the airport for layover
- Russell (10/5): - Nice comfortable room with king size bed. Two young girls run the place, made me a delicious breakfast and lent me a phone charger. Quiet.
- Robert (10/5): - Since the property is so close to the airport, this is an excellent location to stay for Guatemalan arrival and departure flights
- David (10/5): - Luxurious, with a balcony view of a forested canyon. Yet so close to the airport one could walk, if travelling light. Airport shuttle was a Mercedes sedan. Staff were very helpful, but only present for a few hours per day. Located in a gated neighborhood, no restaurants nearby.
- Maria (8/5): - The property was good, just need to have places to eat inside. Because some people like me don’t have personal transportation to go eat outside, I hear a little noise, like motorcycles and cars late night. Other than that everything was good.
- Delmy (10/5): - Nice need more fans or AC, but excellent place
- Joanna (6/5): - Stayed here already one time. Was super. Nice rooms. This time room was dark, tiny, super small barely useable bathroom and shower. Not enough towels for number of persons. Internet does not work.
- paula (8/5): Great for 1 night before early am flight - Very nice people and place. HOWEVER - it is in a gated neighborhood (yea safety) but it meant it was hard to get into and out of by taxi. there is also only a small convenience store and 2 restaurants (one only open for dinner) within walking distance (unless you want to eat in the airport - which i did). so if you arrive late from the airport and just need a place to sleep its great, but as a place to stay for multiple days i would say no.
- Jose (10/5): - Great place
- Carlos (10/5): - Nice and quiet area. Excellent customer service. Spacious rooms.
- Joanna (10/5): - Like your home away from home. Quiet, friendly staff. Early airport shuttle!
- Johanna (10/5): - El trato encantador, un desayuno y amabilidad desde el host hasta el personal. La habitación muy amplia y cómoda con buena vista. Las instalaciones están en remodelación. Aseguró que quedarán estupendas
- Robert (10/5): - the view looked over a forest in the city.
Could have a wash cloth and another bath towel for those with long hair
- Jose (10/5): - Amo este lugar, no dudo en reservar cuando viajo a Guatemala
