We enjoyed our last night in Costa Rica at this hotel 1/2 hour from the airport. The view from our room was amazing and the bed was super comfortable.

Liked: Staff & service
Staff were great and did the best with what they had. Hotel looks great in the pics. 1. Very noisy neighbourhood. Sitting on the balcony was not pleasant. 2. No air conditioning or a safe for valuables. 3. The pool was absolutely frigid. Not a single guest used the pool when we’re there. Nice place but not worth the cost.

Older Hotel with lots of character. Nice room. Staff was very courteous and very helpful. The surrounding grounds were gorgeous with a lovely walk through their coffee plantation. Not sure about walking outside of the hotel grounds. Busy and noisy street. Rough looking neighbourhood.
