Charged 1.00 for ice. did not know that they did not use a shuttle any longer. I had to pay more for a taxi than the cost of the hotel.

Me gusta porque es bien centrico, esta cerca de la cinta costera, el personal es muy amable y tiene muy bonita vista. Lo que no me gusta es que hay mucho vagabundo en los alrededores, gente sin hogar en la calle lo cual hace sentir inseguridad y mal aspecto a la cudad, pareciera que el gobierno no se preocupa por ellos.

I rarely write critical reviews, but wanted to warn people about this place. I booked this on Expedia and thought that any place that has a rooftop pool must be fairly good. Wrong. The room was so small that you had to walk sideways to get around the end of the bed to get to the bathroom. No chairs in the room. They had pillow shams, but no other pillows, so all you had was a lumpy sham to sleep on. The room did have AC which worked. The TV reception was poor for at least half the channels. The staff was polite. Coffee only in the lobby. Light fixtures above the bed had no light bulbs in them so you could read and the shower just sprayed out a stream as if there were no shower head at all.

A basic room at a basic price
Location was pretty good - we used Uber taxis mostly. Pool needs attention - not regularly cleaned around sitting area and water quality poor. Restaurant service was slow as only one waitress at a time and sometimes did the cooking, I think! Good prices and quantity for food and drink prices too. Almost no English spoken here, so make sure you have an App for that!

We were disappointed with our stay at the Costa Inn. Many of the amenities that sold us on booking were not honored/accurate.After notifying the correct people at the airport about needing a shuttle (which is included in the booking), no one came to get us. The lady at the airport (who was very rude) said she couldn't find a driver to come, so we would either have to keep waiting or take a taxi. When we finally got to the hotel - the transport driver was sitting there on his phone...Another selling feature was the bar/restaurant which the website / profile states is open 24 hours a day - this is false!! We were very hungry when we arrived at 11:30pm, and when I asked about the restaurant, they just said "no - is closed". It even says on the door that it is open 24 hours. We asked if there was a place to get snacks / water etc, and the staff again said no. We went out to try and look for a store, but quickly turned around when we realized the hotel is in a very seedy area. At night there were people on every corner trying to wave us over, and we felt too uncomfortable to continue looking around. The breakfast was ok... Coffee, toast, eggs, cake, and hot dogs. The ONLY good thing about this hotel (besides the price - which I now understand why it is so cheap) is the rooftop pool, which actually has nice views of the city and was decently clean. Would not recommend staying here... spend the few extra dollars and stay in Casco Viejo!!
