The hotel is lovely and the staff is very kind and helpful. Breakfast was served fresh and was delicious. The room is small, but it had everything we needed. We were only there a short time, but thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Very beautiful property, centrally located in Alajuela, only a few minutes drive from the airport. Our bathroom was shared but it is kept immaculately clean. It is a shame that we only had one night here before catching our early morning flight. Next time, I will plan to stay longer to enjoy the accommodation more.

It is in a good location, close to the square. A solid choice if you need to be close to the airport. No shuttle but they have one paid parking space (10 USD/night).

This place is truly a hidden gem, the staff is amazing. The car rental place didn't show up but the man at this hotel, found me a car. I went to the atm and it wouldn't work, back at the hotel, I asked him if he would go with to atm and he said yes! Yippie. The atm only had colonies, and I was trying to get us dollar. Long story sorry but I highly recommend.

6/10 Good

Positives: Really lovely hotel staff, and they even help me set up a private tour of Poas with a lovely human named Ricardo. The rooms were overall clean (a little more on this below), although they were small. Cons: My sink didn't have hot water during my stay. I didn't have hot water in my shower either. The kind hotel staff came and checked twice, but perhaps it's because I showered a bit later in the day, that I did not have hot water. I only had a short stay, so I tolerated it, but not having hot water is unacceptable. The drape that goes at the bottom of the bed also had some stains.
