Comments Third year in a row at La Ceiba. You can view my other reviews of same hotel and diving on previous Undercurrent reviews. Room on second floor of 3 story building, not in the tower. Room clean, water hot. Had tv with better channel selection than before. Lots of english speaking channels including movie channels.
Food good as usual. Staff friendly. Pool water a little cooler than before, but tolerable. Room safe went bad, but was replaced ... Subscribe to get the full story. For Subscribers Only  Active subscribers continue reading here
