Very convenient to the Manuel Antonio park entrance. The hotel is dated and the furniture is quite old, but everything worked fine, the rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. The walk to the beach is a bit sketchy but it's very short and easy. Very friendly and helpful reception staff. Food was good at the restaurant also

The hotel is a great location, it is very close to the national park and the beach. Unfortunately though the hotel itself is in need of serious maintenance and renovations.
