A lot of road noise. Asked about this before checking in and they said rooms are at the back and not a lot of road noise but the rooms are not at all quiet. No one on-site after 5p. Many stairs and no one to assist you. No where to eat in the evening. Room had no amenities like shampoo. Not great value for money.

The host was very friendly and helpful. The bakery had gluten free options. The hotel was very noisy: highway noise, water pipes vibrating loudly, roosters and dogs. The door locks didn't work. No soap. No mirror close to a plug-in.

The place felt safe, staff were friendly and the room was very clean, properly equiped. Only negatives were the loud noises coming from the highway right in front and the fact that nothing is really walkable from there, you have to have a car or call a taxi. But for a night just before going to the airport it was great!

I liked that the hotel was away from the busy town and had a cute cafe. I used to stop by for my favourite ice coffee but they didn't have the ice coconut coffee anymore and the furniture and decor has been less appealing. The three flights of stairs was kind of a bother, especially if you have a few heavy luggage and you have to make a few trips. I had a hard time getting out of my room because the door knob came off, minor fix but for someone else it might be a big problem for their security. Breakfast was included but was mediocre. Taxi was over 12000 colones, 24 USD for a five minute ride. Nice driver but too expensive.

Place needs some attention
At first I thought the bed was broken, but no, it was just missing an entire wood slat, what is frankly ridiculous considering how easily this can be replaced the same day from a nearby hardware store. The interior bedrooom door handle popped off with the door closed, thankfully I was able to get it back on and open the door, what can also be replaced easily and cheaply. The bathroom sink has a fairly bad leak, but the solution was to put a to-go container under it rather than to fix it. Likewise the shower handle had a massive leak so pressure is directed away from the shower head. Then, I chose this hotel in part because they have a coffee shop downstairs that was supposed to open at 7am and have breakfast, but no, I was told they would show up at 8am despite the sign saying 7am, so I left hungry.

My stay was wonderful, such a warm welcome from the hostess Karina who with her kindness made it feel like home, she went above and beyond to accomodate. Having the cafe right there at the hotel was such a treat, so much love was put into the food, I had the most delicious chicken sandwich, it was so good I had to get a second one to go on my way to the airport which was close and easeful to get a taxi to. The room was simple, clean, spacious and modern, very comfortable. Muchas gracias

Stay was good, but we booked a room for 2 people, when it says breakfast included it only includes a breakfast for 1 person. That’s what we think they can improve. It is confused

Definitely recommended for a budget stay near LIR
Basic room, this is not our first stay here. The price is right for an overnight stay and only 7 min. drive to LIR. The shower plumbing issue is always an issue and the pillows need to be updated. The AC unit takes forever to cool the room. Thankfully, the barking dogs next door get locked up at sunset.

1st time in Costa Rica
Communication was great. Coming in after hours, it was easy to find and follow the instructions to get into the room. Air conditioning was so-so, but did the job! The room had a fan also. So it was comfortable. The breakfast was amazing! So good! Great place to stay for the night if you need to be by the airport.
