I tried to contact this property before arrival that we were going to be late checking in due to transportation and I never heard back. Once we arrived to the hotel at 1145 the front gate was padlocked shut. We wandered around to the back side of the hotel and found a way in and went to the lobby. There was no one around. We were calling out for people and then finally a man came from the back and “checked us in”. It does state 24hr front desk. Would've hoped at the minimum they would’ve answered me before I arrived so I could know where to go and what our plan was. Was an alarming arrival thinking I was going to have to sleep on the couches in the lobby.

The property is getting pretty run down. You can't have you r own food and drinks at the pool and the bartending staff does not use proper ingredients for drinks (even as simple as a margareta). The front desk staff was Awesome. It was fun to see all the exotic birds walking around the property.

We were on vacation in Costa Rica and needed a hotel near the hospital after a medical emergency. This hotel is conveniently located less than 10 minutes from the hospital. Staff were friendly and accommodating. The grounds are beautiful with a lot for guest to do including a walking path that was full of wildlife to view. Because of the location, there was noise from the neighborhood but that is expected at an urban hotel. The pros completely outshine any noise. I would stay here again and suggest it to anyone.

Beautiful property that is indoor/outdoor. Large outdoor restaurant and breakfast area next to the updated pool. Breakfast was tipical Costa Rican highly recommended and the supper we ate was also very good. Staff were very friendly and helpful. There are beautiful peacocks roaming the outdoor space which is also fun to watch!

The breakfast was dreadful. Only the pineapple was edible. Coffee not bad. Eggs tasted strange and boring gallo pinto. Bread was awful and other parties cheap and awful. The juice was watered down. Hot dogs are disgusting, serve real food. At this price, it’s unacceptable. Shower needs updating and shampoo should be provided.
