Simple place but clean with a small pool. Largest towels we’ve ever had and a decent shower. Nice owners. A fine place for a night on the road.

I would return here!

This is a quiet little gem tucked away in the back streets of the town of Nicoya. Spotlessly clean, friendly but not pushy, sparkling pool.

This is not a hotel, it is just a house renting rooms for the night. Wouldn’t go back to this place, I’d rather drive for another hour and stay in a decent place. I have stayed in other hotels in the area and for the same price one can find many excellent alternatives.

Over priced

We did receive a warm welcome from the hosts, though they were somewhat inflexible during our visit. There is no breakfast or coffee so you do need to hunt around Nicoya first thing in the morning for provisions. The room was very compact, though spotlessly clean except for an invasion if fire ants, which came in from outside. The hot water is frim a suicide shiwerhead which had some issues during our stay. Overall, over priced for what it is.

Nice hotel with attentive owners

Nice hotel with friendly owners. The rooms are clean and everything seem new. Beds are comfortable. Even if the breakfast is not included, the owners are very attentive and offer some snacks (juice, fruits, biscuits, etc...). If your rooms are located in the back side, be careful about the mosquitoes. Close the doors as soon as you enter or leave the room. What need to be improved : The size of the room. A room with 2 queens beds (4 persons maximum) does not have space for more than 2 luggages.

En arrivant à l'hôtel, nous avons d'abord été très inquiets : nous étions les seuls clients, et les propriétaires (qui ne parlent pas d'autre langue que l'espagnol) n'avaient pas l'air bien au courant de notre réservation... Au final, ils se sont avérés bienveillants et sympathiques, mais encore un peu "amateurs".

Não condiz com o anunciado

DIRIGIDO POR UM CASAL SIMPÁTICO MAS NÃO FUNCIONA A RECEPÇÃO COMO ANUNCIADO, O QUARTO NÃO APRESENTA PRIVACIDADE: PORTA DE VIDRO COM CORTINA TRANSPARENTE. O banho sempre frio: o chuveiro elétrico inicia com temperatura bem amena e.... desliga. Detesto banho frio e foi como os tomei E, particularmente, não apreciei que na recepção, contiguamente, 03 cães estejam fazendo "vigília".
