I had a great stay at Belcove hotel. As a low budget option, my room was exactly as I expected. Some facilities may need an upgrade, but otherwise, all were functioning. Staff were very helpful and assisted me with tours and general directions in the area. Location is very convenient to the ferries, as well as a few food options.

Staff is very friendly and helpful. My room was clean and all amenities worked. Downside is the location. Don't go out after dark. Overall 4/5.

The hotel is decent, but old and has seen better days. Shower varied between barely warm water to one night with decent hot water, but it ended quickly. Staff are very friendly, but didn't get back to me on a request for private transport despite asking repeatedly. There isn't much to see in the area, though it's a good spot to see some of the nearby ruins and go to Caye Caulker for the day. I didn't feel unsafe, even at night, though I was back to the hotel before 9pm every night.

Great little spot!
I fully enjoyed every day staying at this place. The room was quaint and all I needed. The staff was amazingly helpful and nice. I very much enjoyed the patios I could sit out and sip coffee in the morning and a cold beer at night. I will definitely stay here again when I make it back to Belize.

not for smell sensitive people.
hotel was fine. clean. wifi worked. the only problem was the smell of the air freshener from the bathroom. it was so strong even with the bathroom door closed the smell was so strong I could taste it. I had to open a window which helped a little bit

Simple hotel with very nice and helpful staff. Everything was clean, including the common bathroom. The view to the river is nice. There is a supermarket and a couple of local restaurants in the area. More international food and tourist facilities are a walking distance away, on the other side of the river.

Staff is nice and helpful and I guess the price is fair compared to other places in Belize city. However it feels very expensive for very basic the hotel is. Also the neighborhood feels very dangerous at night. I wouldn’t recommend anyone to come here if you can avoid it.

This was my fourth stay and I loved it as always. I would recommend staying here to anyone. It’s a great bang for your buck. The only thing was my air conditioner wasn’t working all the way. It kept the room cool for when you walked in but after you were there for a while the room just felt okay.

Clearly the staff take great pride in their work, and they will do everything possible to make one's stay more comfortable, as they did with us. It's an old-fashioned hotel, decent, clean, and has a really lovely balcony/terrace overlooking the Belize River, decked with all sorts of beautiful plants. The location of the hotel is also perfect: mere metres away from the ferry terminal, and around the corner from the downtown core.

Great: Friendly staff, free coffee in the morning 7-11 am, amazing terrace overlooking the river in the back with chairs to chill, great location, however not safe to walk after 9pm, use taxi. Bad: My room was on the ground floor, near the hotel entrance, very noisy. Only one electrical socket in the room and one of the 2 slot is taken by the fridge. Only one sheet on the bed and AC is blowing directly over the bed. No mirror in the bathroom. Walls are lacking insulation; I could hear next door cell phone’s notification and tv, and doors slamming.

Very basic, extremely hard beds with a thin sheet, staff were friendly and the little back patio was nice. But rooms are very outdated and showers have no pressure. Although close to down town your going to experience a bit more of the locals and street food.

It’s a fantasy location for easy access to the water taxis. There are nice views in docks where you can watch the river life while sitting in deck chairs. The rooms were small, but everything worked well. The staff were very friendly and attentive.

Front desk staff were very friendly. The bed was awful—felt like sleeping right on metal springs. Noise! A few examples: dog squeaky toy, a knock on a door in the corridor with an announced “We’re coming in,” an alarm at 6 am for about 2 minutes, a tolling bell at 6:30. All of these clearly audible. No sound proofing whatsoever.

Good hotel in city center
Located in the city center, near the bus station, you can find where to eat and buy groceries. After sunset, it is better not to go out on the street as elsewhere in the major cities of Central America, because all adequate people are already at home, and homeless people, drug addicts and incomprehensible personalities remain on the streets, there are enough of them during the day, but in the evening and at night the streets are deserted. Stable Wi-Fi. Nice staff. Four windows to the street in the family room. There is a beautiful terrace overlooking the river. Comfortable, cozy room, air conditioning, comfortable bed, nice bed linen. Hot water is just from the tap, but the shower head is not conveniently located. Of the bathing accessories, only soap. Clean bed linen. Two towels. Toilet paper. There are enough sockets, but when used through the adapter, everything falls out. Poor sound insulation. In my opinion, the price for accommodation is overstated, but not by much.

Room ok, not so much the cockroach.
The hotel was very run down. Bed was comfortable, pillows flat. Towels very nice but no shampoo or hair dryer. We killed a cockroach in our room. Ugh. The balcony was a big redeeming factor As was the air conditioning.

Good Evening Leonce, I am truly sorry for what your experienced with the roach. We will do our best for this not to happen again.
