Cute little hotel In the heart of San Carlos. The rooftop lounge was a real treat. The staff was super friendly and helpful. I had breakfast delivered to my door each morning. The AC worked great and the beach was only a 10 minute walk away for a nice swim or some surfing. Would stay here again for the price.

Chambre basique, tres basique C etait sombre avec seulement une fenêtre qui donne sur le mur avec les ballons d eau chaude au dessus, une casserole rouillée, la plaque de cuisson grasse et sale, le tout a besoin d amour. Meme si le prix n est pas très cher, cela reste encore trop cher pour la prestation proposée

We didn’t receive the room that I purchased on Expedia. Instead we were given another studio room that had a futon couch rather than a twin bed which was not very comfortable unfortunately.

Fairly basic accommodations, but the rooftop terrace with seating and a hammock was wonderful for both views and a beautiful breeze.

Con cuidado...

Urgente!!! Hay que fumigar, presencia de cucarachas.. También revisar la parte eléctrica... Parte del techo se derrite por calentamiento de los cables... La lampara/abanico esta pegando corriente... Un peligro.

Propreté à améliorer

J'ai vraiment aime le soutien et disponibilité de l'hôtesse. Par contre le seul point négatif et le plus important pour moi était la propreté de la chambre. À mon arrivé la chambre était très salé (la toilette et du sable partout). Au centre et à 15 min de l'hôtel.

Habitación limpia, cómoda, pero no tenía espejo. Ni en el cuarto, ni baño. Se escucha los ronquidos del cuarto de al lado.

the two (?) owner are super nice! When we couldn’t find the AC controller, we texted the Hotels WhatsApp number and just five minutes later the man from the upstairs came with the controller. The woman was also very kind and super helpful! We had a lovely stay and can highly recommend!
