After being use to the cheap prices of Guatemala one would be inclined to pass on the Mikaso Hotel for being "pricey". At USD$8 for a dorm room it is one of the more expensive lodgings in San Pedro la Laguna (Lake Atitlán).
Inside and out, the hotel is clean, comfortable, luxurious with beautiful tiling, plush furniture, big mattresses, white linen. It sits on the lakefront---translation: nice breezes and gorgeous vista---and has a private homemade dock which many guests find enjoyable for reading, sun bathing, or just dangling their feet into the water.
The hot water is not always hot but the customer service is. Atop is a bar restaurant. The area has magazines, board games, and balcony seating to take in more of the lake and mountain views. Throughout Mikaso are many "nooks" to sit and read in peace. Party animals have no shortage of nearby entros but, thankfully, the hotel itself is a classy refuge from the bustling excess.

It is a little hard to access but worth it. And, anyway, one can always hire a zippy tuk-tuk (Shanghai taxi) to get one there. Fare is only Q5 (5 Quetzales = less than a USD) to go anywhere around the lake.
