Great alternative for staying close to the airport, taxi is available to get there and local buses take you within a couple blocks to the Belize bus station for continued travel.
Shared bathroom was never a problem, everything was very clean, no hot water, which Monique had clearly stated before I came, was also no problem and you get to experience a real neighborhood were everyone was so nice and friendly. Monique was friendly and available but also gave me as much alone time as I wanted. My room was plenty big and comfortable. The wifi was excellent.
