Property manager and other staff were awesome! Breakfast was good, especially the fresh fruit. Rooms are basic but clean, with comfortable beds and pillows. The area around the hotel was not very walkable, so expect to drive or stay on site (they will help you order amazing pizza delivery, so surprisingly good!)

My wife and I stayed at this hotel on our way out of SJO traveling west for 1 night. Important things we were looking for: secure parking, breakfast included, air conditioning, WiFi, easy access from the highway. Senor Herrera was very accommodating and kind. He showed us his available rooms and let us choose between them. The rooms were clean and the hotel grounds was well manicured. There was a pool that was available, which we didn't use but others did--it looked clean and well maintained. We ate dinner and breakfast at the hotel before continuing on our travels, which was very convenient. There are several grocery stores and a market within walking distance from the hotel. There is a futbol arena next door and a bar across the street, but they quieted down at a decent hour. The hotel is well secured and we felt like our vehicle was safe behind the locked courtyard gate. Overall, would stay here again for sure. It was the perfect place for us, meeting our needs, and well exceeded our expectations for the price.

Friendly staff and clean rooms. The hot water situation in our room was not ideal. None in the sink. Finicky in the shower with a little heater attached just before the shower head. The “on site” restaurant is actually a block away and the food arrives not too warm.

The staff was always bringing us fresh fruits and cold drinks and fresh beach towels. They go above and beyond to make you feel at home. It's very cozy and clean- we cannot wait to stay again!
