Parking was easy enough in a secure lot around the corner. Breakfast was a highlight, with an array of fresh fruits, gallo pinto, and scrambled eggs. Our room (35) had an exceedingly small bathroom and had windows facing the street, though noise was not bad. Our television did not work, but the bed was comfortable enough. ##### Sarah Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### jean francois Apr 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Bon petit-déjeuner, bon restaurant, très proche du centre-ville, parking extérieur sécurisé, reste un peu bruyant du fait de la cour intérieure et de certains clients pas très discret. ##### jean francois Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### sarah Feb 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities It was a good location, easy to walk to some of the major sites of the city. ##### sarah Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### holly May 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Places is beautiful and in a great location to be down town.

The breakfast was varied and the staff helpful. The pool was disappointing, it really is only for kids to play in.

The place is clean but all the furniture in the common areas are very dirty. And please put a reading chair in the room. Our bathroom was new and beautiful. The breakfast was delicious. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mackenzie Jun 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### I would go back. But always want the facts upfront The positives: the breakfast was DELICIOUS! Friendly staff and clean environment. The rooms we were in did not have AC, although that was advertised. Be aware, it is an old hotel so only stairs (consider for luggage carrying purposes). Our first room would not lock due to a key being broken off into the lock but they were quick and accommodating and got us in another room. ##### Mackenzie Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mario Jul 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Door was flimsy. Pool was advertised ridiculously with wide angle lens photo. It’s more of a plunge/dip to cool off in than a pool to swim. Tv was impossible to figure out or turn on. ##### Mario Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Juan May 30, 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities No idea how this place even has an 8 score on here. In costa rica for a week with 4 different hotels throughout the country and this one by far the bad one. Lobby was cute but room was filthy. Old furniture that is scratched and beat up from the tables to the shelves. Super thin pillows and toilet paper. Walls had huge stains all over them. Nothing like the photos. Also the room doesnt seem to have AC, i turned it down to 20 and it never got cool, woke up in the middle of the night sweaty. I stood on the bed to feel the smallest trickle of air come out of a single vent. We went to take a shower and no hot water. Called front desk and they said they would check on the boiler, then a callback 5 minutes later they tell us its broken and there wont be any hot water. The breakfast was above my expectstions and thats because the night before was so bad i expected it to be on par eith the room. Would not recommend this place, and I've stayed all over latin america in all different kinds of hotels and hostels. This one not worth it in my opinion. ##### Juan Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Marlen Nov 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Room comfort #### No hay parqueo en el hotel La ubicación muy buena, pero no hay parqueo en el hotel, está detrás de este, llegamos de noche y estaba lloviendo, tuvimos que caminar bajo la lluvia una cuadra, eso fue muy incómodo, solo por eso no volveríamos, menos con niños. La habitación no tenía aire acondicionado, a pesar de que en la reserva ofrecian aire y ventilador de techo, solo estaba este último, si estaba limpia y los paños huelen muy rico. El desayuno incluido estaba bien. El servicio del personal muy bien. ##### Marlen Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hector Oct 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excelente y muy bien ubicado.
