The best spot on Flores
This is great hotel, super clean, super friendly staff, worth every penny. Highly recommended. Great terrace overlooking the lake and a good little kitchen to cook up food when you don't want to eat out. Lots of options here but you can't go wrong with this one

Avoid this hotel if you can. I am not sure why it is in Lonely Planet.
The night staff was incredibly rude to me and my friends. They treated us different than the Germans that were staying their also and had a guest visiting. They told us next time my friend visited they were have to pay 75 Quetzals. There is nothing special about this hotel. There are many others the same price and much nicer.
I had made reservations to stay at La Posada de Don Jose again when I came back to Flores. I canceled the reservation and chose to stay somewhere else. Indeed, I cut my visit short in Flores in part because of this experience at your hotel and feeling like I did not have a comfortable place to stay in Flores.

Worst ever
This hotel was awful. The shower did not work at all. This was in heat of 100 degrees plus. There was an electric circuit breaker in the shower as well (so perhaps it was a good thing the water did not flow). No one accepted responsibility for an hour plus after I identified the problem. Additionally, the room itself was not secure (a weak door lock with no chain or dead bolt) and the bed only had a top sheet, no blanket (perhaps to minimize the use of the air conditioner). While they refunded my money, I had to find a room on my own Sunday night after pm as they insisted I leave immediately. Additionally, my electric chargers and cords disappeared from the room as I searched for another.

Nice view
It was good, but when we wanted to sleep, there was a bar next to the hotel. The bar was really loud, so it was not good. Othervice you can pick a room with nice view, but don’t be surprised, when you saw at the morning in the lake doldiers

Nice enough for a "longer stay" :)
Just for a 2-night stay actually just for the purpose of visiting Tikal at not too far away (just an hour or so on a tour minibus), this place though is one that I wouldn't have minded to stay longer for a "fairly-good-sized" room which came with an ensuite & a nice flat-screen (and all for the "quite reasonable" rate of about 25 US$ a night). And for convenience nearby are a restaurant & a small grocery store (both shortly to the right after coming out of here but the grocery store at across the street) although yes I found "cheaper & more-filling" food which is not too close to this place but at just about a 10-minute walk which is the area around "the bridge to Santa Elena" (where there are not many but like a short row of restaurants with also outdoor tables & chairs).
And with this town actually being a "small island" in a pretty-sizeable lake (quite as far as eyes can see in "some directions"), I walked around pretty much the entire perimeter of the island and did get to enjoy the "sunset view" which is from like the designated area for swimming in the lake (where I saw a number of people in the water although not entering myself due to that area being at "some distance" from this place). And also, quite a pleasant thing to do is just wandering around the town along its narrow streets lined with "quaint & colorful" mostly-one-and-two-storied buildings for really a "beautiful multi-colored" appearance of each street and yes the town as a whole (which is on a smaller scale than Cartagena in Colombia but quite on the same scale as Granada in Nicaragua & Antigua right in this country, all 3 of those similarly beautiful towns visited prior to this one).
If going to Tikal in the early morning, the tour minibus is at about 8 am from the area around the bridge & the 'Yo (heart) Peten' sign, and also right from that area are buses to the Belize border town of Melchor de Mencos (but for a cheaper price is by taking a "collectivo minivan" from the Santa Elena bus terminal just across the bridge).
