Pleasant stay, clean and friendly staff

This is a traditional inexpensive Tico hotel. It has fans instead of AC, no pool, thinner walls than US folk are used to, no elevator front and center. But it is clean, safe, and costs half or less the rate of a US-style hotel. There is a mall, banks and restaurants within a half kilometer. It's good at being what it's supposed to be.

The staff could not have done more to help us. The room was clean and comfortable.
We genuinely enjoyed our visit and would certainly return again.

It’s between a very busy road and a railway line so noise might be an issue. Easy walk to shopping mall and plenty of restaurants/ bars. About 20-25 minute walk into the main business shopping area in town

Staff were very helpful with directions and to arrange a rental car. High noise levels due to traffic and train tracks nearby

The staff really helped when I had a problem with my airlines. The breakfast selectfion was great, as was their method of reserving the food you wanted for breakfast, and what time slot you wanted.
Close to musiums, restaurants and pubs

Ernesto exceeds the standards for hospitality! He was amazing. He set us up with a driver and acted as a concierge and reserved our transportation and tours. We will be back!

Staff are very friendly, room can be a bit noisy because it’s by the main road, nice rooms otherwise

The owner of the hotel is very sweet and helpful and the hotel ( or better say hostel really) is centrally located, which makes it a nice stay. It is also clean.
Amenities are basic, room is very simple, be prepared for a lukewarm water. But the price speaks for it.
I stayed as part of the group travel so it was an agency choice which was obviously budget focused.

Basic and nice!

Hotel was your basic 2-3 star hotel. Bathroom sink and toilet were very close to each other (cramped). Faucet was loose and moved when turning on and off water. Soap in dispenser next to sink was solid and not able to dispense any soap. Window was covered and did not provide much natural lighting. Room was located near the front of the hotel so was subject to traffic noise all night long. The included breakfast was basic, eggs, rice & beans, toast, some fruit, coffee and orange juice. Can order eggs cooked to your preference and pancakes. Front door is always locked and must ring doorbell to be let in and attendant must unlock door for you to leave the hotel.

The staff are friendly. Breakfast is ok. The trains that run behind the hotel starts around 430am-ish to 11pm and bothered me a bit(old trains,loud sirens). Good place to crash at night. Left my luggage there for a few days.
4.0
The owner and staff were great. For the price, it was a clean, well appointed room. Our only issue was the bed is really hard. The hardest we slept on our whole time in CR. The location was within walking distance of the museums and National Theater. I would recommend to others.

This hotel doesn't aspire to be elegant, but it is clean, comfortable, and efficiently run. I was especially impressed by the personal and always cheerful treatment I received from every member of the staff.

Based on Expedia reviews I booked this hotel for 3 days. The location is excellent, the front desk staff is very responsive, it is is clean and the wifi good. However the hotel looks better in the photos than in the reality. It is an older hotel and everything in it appears to be original and probably at least 50 years old. It should have been renovated at least 20 years ago. There is no in room safe nor refri or minibar. The hotel advertises a "full" breakfast but one day the "full" breakfast was coffee and a small bean taco. The other two days it was Gallo Pinto (rice and beans) that tasted like it had been cooked earlier and just warmed up. The food was not fresh tasting. However , the hotel was quiet because it appeared that very few people were staying there.

The staff were very friendly and the room was very clean. If you want air conditioning you have to request it because only two rooms have air conditioning. The train pass behind the hotel so you will feel like the earth is trembling every time it crossed by. At night you can listen the cars and buses because the hotel is in front of Central Avenue. To me it was OK, I felt very secure and it was very clean. They give you a traditional breakfast called gallo pinto with coffee,fruits and yogurt.
4.0
The staff at the hotel are very friendly and helpful. Comfortable bed and nice hot shower. A bit noisy for sleeping but nothing that earplugs didn't fix. The coffee and breakfast were delicious.
