I paid for a room and when I arrived after hours I opened the lock box as instructed by the emails i recieved and there was no key. Thankfully there was a couple coming in at the same time as me so they phoned the after hours number as I couldnt make outgoing calls due to the poor reception in the area. The lady I spoke to on the phone was incredibly rude and told me they had no rooms for me. It was around 8pm in the night and by this time there was not a single room in the area available. My three year old and I ended up sleeping in my car over night on our first night in Costa Rica. I do not recommended playing with this joke of a hotel. I still cant believe this happened and the fact she was so ignorant about it and not willing to even help me in any way was disgusting. DO NOT BOOK HERE, YOU ARE NOT PROMISED A ROOM EVEN IF THEY TAKE YOUR MONEY.

Room was filthy, wasn’t clean, sheets and towels on the floor and the garbage was full. We were told room 4. When we arrived we called and messaged the hotel and no one responded. We got into contact with Expedia who also didn’t make contact with the hotel and said they would request a refund on our behalf. We then found a new place to stay. Over an hour later the hotel said that there was a late check out and we were in a different room than what we were told. The hotel has refused to refund us despite them not being present when we arrived, not picking up the phone when we called, or communicating we’d be in a different room altogether. Expedia then emails me saying the hotel has refused to refund me due to cancellation policy and we’re basically out of luck. Literally the worst experience I’ve had with a hotel and with Expedia. It feels like a bit of a scam. Do not stay here.

It was not very nice experience. To get to the place it was an adventure. There is not signal to be a hotel, there was a lot stairs to climb and we have a senior with disability. To leave next day to the airport, it was very difficult to get a taxi. Overall, a terrible experience. I will not recommend for people with a lot luggage and seniors.

While Karao Hotel may offer budget nightly stays, it offers amazingly large rooms, close vicinity to the Liberia airport, public bus directory in front of Karao, and extraordinary professionally brewed coffee shop and breakfast meals. The (made on premises) breakfast items are inexpensive and high quality. Hope you will enjoy my recent photos of these delights, my companion and I stayed twice in December 2025. Perfect in every way.
