Sandra

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Room was not as shown in pictures. Furniture was coming apart from humidity, room smelt extremely musty, stains on chairs, bed very hard, bathroom had mold and mildew around tiles. One good thing, i asked to change rooms, from the really bad one and was accommodated. Room was slightly better, still not great. Not worth $180 US a night. Another good thing, we were only staying one night.

If you are taking the shuttle bus from Nicaragua to Costa Rica. This hotel is very convenient from the mall where the shuttle drop off is. It’s literally right across the street. Nice pool, no in room fridge, buffet breakfast not so great. Front desk service was great.

Loved all the giant lizards and peacocks. Howler monkeys only in the tree tops but still cool. Beautiful pool area. No mini fridge in our room so we ended up buying a cooler. Walking distance to lots of stores and groceries. Friendly staff. Great weight room if you like that.

Some of what they advertised was misleading? They advertise a hotel and casino but the casino has not been open since the Covid epidemic ? i do not think this style of hotel management could or would be used in Canada or the USA if they wanted to stay in business
