Unless you want to stay in a resort hotel, about 2 miles from downtown Hopkins, this is the place to stay. It is a great place to relax and enjoy the town of Hopkins from. Latitude 17 is located right in the main part of town on Main Street. The manager, Mirko, was great, and met us upon our arrival, he also provided excellent driving instructions which were needed since google maps put us in the wrong location for the property. He provided a detailed orientation for the property and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. Latitude 17 consists of 2 separate units / buildings at the front (on Main Street), and a building in the back which has about 3 units altogether (Not sure how many units are in back building since I did not view them). We stayed in the front, right unit (1 bedroom, 1 bath). Even though it is located on the main street, right downtown, we heard very little noise, with the A/C units on. The listing is as described, and the picture shown is of unit stayed in. The picture does not show that Mirko has now enclosed the downstairs portion of the building, which makes the unit look better from the outside.

The grocery store and fresh vegetable stand are located just a few feet from the property, and there are restaurants located all around. The living area is a nice size, and the bedroom has a great closet for storage of your clothes and luggage. Air conditioning (2 units, one for living area, and the other one for bedroom) works great, and the unit had both a front and back porch, to sit and enjoy. The kitchen is well stocked, and furniture is in good shape and very functional. Water pressure was good (hot & cold), but best to buy purified water for drinking. Mirko has many different short and long term rentals, is well known and liked in town, so will be very helpful is you have any questions at all about the area or getting hooked up for tours and travel throughout Belize. The only negative about the unit was that the bathroom is very small and the shower barely fits one person.

Would recommend staying here.
