We had a great vacation in Costa Rica and chose this hotel for our last night because it's near the Liberia airport. The photos online look MUCH nicer than what our room looked like. Our room's window looked into the hotel hallway. The beds were springy and old. The bathroom wall tiles had holes in them. It was not worth what we spent. We stayed at another hotel in Arenal that was amazing for not much more money per night. The only plus is that the staff was friendly.

Disappointed

Disappointed in my stay. The grounds were beautiful. The room, not so much. Good space. The bed and pillows were hard. Only one power outlet and that was next to the refrigerator. No outlet near the bed or in the bathroom. Lighting in the bathroom was dim. Shower temperature was cool. No adjustment. My room was never cleaned during my trip. I booked the double bed non-smoking room. I left a day early. Location was near the beach. Easy walk. Now I know the the reservation was non-refundable.

This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. The room was dirty and should not have been in use. Andre the front desk person placed me in the room knowing it was not cleaned. I asked for an upgraded room because the standard room was horrible. There was water damage on the walls and water came into my room where I slipped in the middle of the night; stains on my sheets and bugs everywhere. Do not waste your money or time.

The hotel did not honor our reservation request for a king bed claiming that there was no availability. There were very few people at the hotel so we did not understand this problem. Room on the second floor smelled moldy so glad that we ended up with a ground floor room.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
PROS: Location is good, just a couple of minutes to the beach. Balcony was nice and the room was a good size with cold AC. Property has a lot of character and charm with the exposed wood ceilings and unique villa units. Towels were clean and soft and the room was pretty clean on check-in. Landscaping is being well maintained. There was a newer mini-fridge in the room. Free breakfast was decent although somewhat difficult to order. CONS: Staff were very friendly and tried their best to help, but this was the only place in Costa Rica we had a major language barrier. Presumably because of this, we got no directions to our room or parking, or WiFi info. Bed Linens were not soft (too much plastic in them) and hot water for the shower didn't work (there is also no hot water at the sinks, which is common). Parking is on-site but requires you to drive back to the main highway, down a bit, and then back down a gravel road. It's a tiny lot with tandem spots so there's a risk you get blocked in or can't open your car door. Our toilet didn't flush but this was fixed on the 2nd day. Note that you can't put toilet paper in the toilets (the only location in CR we encountered this). The hotel restaurant/bar doesn't seem to have reached the critical mass of customers required to offer standard service or drink availability (we couldn't get a vodka soda and the only server left the property after dropping off our canned beers). For the price, probably wouldn't stay here again.

The property is great and close to the beach. Housekeeping and Maintenance were great. Andre at the front desk was polite, but not responsive to our satisfaction. We arrived two days early and Andre gave us a great walkup rate for the room for nights not booked. We had booked a budget room, and it was what you would expect for that price category. But, the hot water in our room did not work, and the ceiling fan did not work. We immediately spoke with Andre at the front desk about the problems and asked to move, but he said there were no open rooms to move us to in our category, but we could pay an extra $50/night to move to an upgraded cabana. While that was a great price for an upgraded room, we just wanted hot water and a fan for the room we had booked, or to be moved. He told us they would fix the hot water, but the fan was broken. So, nothing for day #1. We approached Andre on day #2 to let him know we still didn't have hot water. He immediately sent Mario to check it out. Mario knew what the problem was, but couldn't fix it until the next day. We asked Andre again to move rooms, but no. On day #3 we FINALLY had hot water, and of course the ceiling fan still didn't work. So, bottomline, the property is great...our room was not. If they had moved us to ANY room, this would be a 5-star review. There were plenty of open rooms during our stay as evident by the front doors being wide open, and an offer to pay more for an upgrade. We won't stay here again. YMMV.

Would not go here solo as a female.

There are no phones in the room, nor a number to call the front desk for emergency. Had an instance where I was being harassed by another guest and afraid to leave my room to get help. Eventually contacted the front desk and they did escort me to another room away from the other guest, but there was not a chain lock of the door. The next day the morning crew knew nothing about my incident. So no one was looking out for me. The area of the hotel is next to a camping hostel, but there were people sleeping on the beach and road. Overall the location didn't seem safe for solo traveler.

Excellent stay!

The staff was incredibly kind and helpful. On our checkout day we wanted to do a tour in Playa Coco and they held our bags for a few hours. The grounds were well kept. We had a little patio with rocking chairs that was comfortable to sit on while we made plans for the day. The hotel is a block from the beach and the walk is easy. Very close to restaurants and a small market if you need anything. The included breakfast was fresh and tasty. The room itself was a little dated, but it was clean and comfortable. The AC worked well. I'd stay here again if we were in the area.
