For what we needed, it was sufficient. Lots of holes in the walls, not all of the lights worked, but the price was very good. The location was not far from the airport, but it looked like it was in a rough side of town. The staff was fantastic.

Great and relaxing place to unwind.

Excellent experience! Ive stayed all over Costa Rica and have found the service only just acceptable. However, Laura, at the front desk was very helpful and nice. The rooms were spacious and comfortable and the dtay includwd a decent breakfasy from staff with a smile on their faces! The only minor downside was the location, being a ways away from anyrhing worth visiting. I would stay here again without hesitation!

Pretty good place to stay for the money, some areas need a little Maintenace and to be upgraded. For example i stay in a suite one of the TV’s was very obsolete a square box from the 90’s definitely wasn’t a flat screen TV, plus they should upgrade to smart TV’s as well. Overall for the money does worth it to stay nice secure location. The staff is very friendly definitely will stay again.
