Our stay at Nelida's place, Independence Inn, was outstanding. It was our best accomodations during our entire 2 1/2 week trip in Belize. Nelida is very hospitable & was great at giving us advice and answering questions. We loved getting to meet other guests also staying at her home. It is a bit of a walk to the downtown area of San Ignacio, but we enjoyed it while getting to experience the local culture. The barking dogs & crowing roosters all over town kept us awake the first night, but Nelida gladly provided earplugs for us. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in the San Ignacio area with the same values as us!
