It’s an ok place. We stayed here because it was close to the airport on our arrival night and the night before departure. We mainly chose it because it had a “family suite” for 6 people.

Property is gated, with beautiful landscaping. Friendly staff in reception 24 hrs. I had 2 rooms, both of which had no hot water nor water pressure. One room also didn’t have air conditioning late at night. Pool water was not clear. I can hear the big trucks and motorcycles all day. The stay was not worth the price paid. Rooms were very small.

Very quiet country like Villas, secluded, secured parking. The rooms have bunk beds which increases the bed count with larger rooms that fit up to 7. The hotel is near the animal refuge and some great local restaurants, if you are driving.

We stayed one night upon arrival at this hotel. Clean, well maintained hotel. Front desk staff very helpful. I forgot my phone at the car rental counter at San Jose airport and I can’t thank James enough for all his help in calling the necessary authorities to get my phone back. Rooms were clean, bed comfortable, bathroom amenities basic. Breakfast was good.

Bon endroit pour 1 nuit près de l'aéroport

L'hôtel est bien. C'est calme. Le petit déjeuner est correct mais redondant si on y est comme nous 3 jours. Aliments chauds, oeufs brouillés et Gallo Pinto seulement. Le personnel n'est pas très souriant. Bon endroit tranquille pour y passer une seule nuit pas trop loin de l'aéroport.

Tranquil place of rest

Flowers and tranquility! We got in late from the airport and found everything perfect. There was a security guard on site who let us in and we found our room without any problem. There is a friendly cat and a wonderful delicious breakfast as well as delicious food if you choose to have dinner or lunch at the hotel. I will definitely be returning next time. I’m in Costa Rica.
