Staff very kindly offered a lift to the airport at 6am for our flight, reconfirmed at 9pm the night before. Staff never turned up, uncontactable, ended up having to power walk 25mins to the airport with 30kg of luggage. Common areas were very nice, room was basic as expected/advertised

The people who run this are awesome. The food is good and reasonable. But, we had to accomplish two things. Get a boarding pass printed, and get a ride to the airport for 6:00 AM. I whatsapped the manager, and both were taken care of in a few minutes. Amazing and appreciated. We felt totally safe and taken care of there. Be aware - its in a gated community and there's not much around, but the airport is walking distance.

The Aurora Express was beautiful! We were exhausted after a long day of travel, hungry, and longing for a shower. The owner helped us get food, the room was so comfortable, and the shuttle to the airport the next day was priceless. We can't wait to stay there again next trip.

The host was super awesome and had some of the best hot water and nicest bathrooms we had seen in Guatemala. It was also very affordable and was in a gated neighborhood.
