Good for short stay to the airport.

Stayed here so I can go to the airport to catch an early flight. Very spacious, clean and pretty. A lot of space to hang around or do work. Has a nice kitchen to store food. However, sleeping at night does get hot. Not too walkable to city center. They need to put a bigger sign to show where the check in is.

About 2km from the airport, it is good for people having a morning flight. The room is very basic, but there's a kitchen. It is not far from the town center as well as a Walmart and a mall.

ich habe einen Tag vor meiner Ankunft in Costa Rica nochmal das Hotel gewechselt, weil ich in der Nähe des internationalen Flughafens sein wollte. Vorher hatte ich aus Versehen eines in der Nähe eines anderen Flughafens gebucht, 30 Minuten entfernt. War alles unkompliziert, Transfer war auch für kleines Geld buchbar. Die Kommunikation ist etwas schwierig, weil nur einer Deutsch/Englisch sprach, der Rest fast nur Spanisch. Aber es hat alles geklappt👍 Ich bin dann einen Tag später weiter nach Paquera 😊💚🍀
