    The rooms were a little small for a family. We stayed for 4 nights and wouldn't of wanted to stay in a small room for any longer.

    The swimming pool is used for lessons after 3pm so you sometimes can't use the pool when you want to. That said the pool is very large and if all the lanes aren't being used you can book in to use it with the reception.

    The beds were a little firm for my liking. You are only allowed one drink with breakfast, if you want another it’s $3.

    The setting of the hotel is lovely. The pond with ducks, lawns and seating area was very enjoyable. The rooms were basic, but functional. The air conditioning worked well. The breakfast was tasty and there was a choice of traditional or American. It’s situated out of town so it’s quiet. Town where there are many bars and restaurants is only 15mins walk away. There’s a supermarket really close.

    A very loud French family with crying child outside at 5:30 AM. Irresponsible parents, the hotel staff apologized later, as the child cried on and off for almost an hour, not inside their room but outside in the common area. Mon dieu!

    Large clean room with TV and AC. Good parking, pleasant property with pond and a stream nearby. Pool nearby with lanes for lap swim. Small store a block away, big super market 2 blocks away. Good simple breakfast

    The room was a bit dated and basic. Some sun loungers or comfortable garden seating would have been a nice addition.

    Friendly and welcoming staff. The grounds were great and the communal tea and coffee making facilities were much appreciated. We liked the location, it is in a less touristy neighborhood just a 20 minute walk into the town.

    The room is very basic and quite small for the four of us. It would be more than enough during nice weather but it does fell a bit short on rainy days.

    The are around the hotel is beautiful but we couldn't enjoy it much as it was raining for days straight (unfortunate storm during dry season). Breakfast area is beautiful.

    A walkable distance from town but a torch is needed to navigate. No option other than to walk across muddy ground to get to breakfast gazebo.

    Staff warm and friendly. Choice of American and Tico breakfast everyday and both were great. Spotlessly clean despite the challenges posed by having so much garden surrounding the rooms. The bakery at the bottom of the lane had good coffee and generously portioned cakes.

    While it is walkable to the downtown area - it is about a mile walk. There is a grocery store just around the corner for supplies which is nice. The beds were rock hard, not sure if it's the same in all the rooms. The room needs shelves or hooks for items to not be on the floor.

    The whole complex is very clean, the pool was very nice. It's a quiet area so not a lot of environmental noise. The breakfast was good - yet the same every morning. The water everywhere is drinkable and doesn't have any aftertaste. Plenty of parking and feels rather secure.

    Would have been nice to have more space for clothes, jackets, etc.. dresser, hangers, shelving. was hard to keep uncluttered with a family of four. Aside from that- can’t think of anything that could make this place better!!

    Perfect- loved location, breakfasts, and genuine smiles when chatting with me in English as my Spanish was inadequate. Bakery next door was clutch- Very nice coffee n sweet treats. Swimming pool was loved by the whole family-always available- and always just ‘us’.
