“Rio Lodge strikes me as esthetically pleasing, with a well-maintained property, providing food service and friendly staff; the outdoor patio seems a particularly nice touch. The dorm beds come with privacy curtains, individual lights, and outlets, while the showers apparently have good pressure and hot water. Overall, it looks like a solid choice in Guatemala City.”
