A car would have been more helpful

The hotel is not what one would consider a normal run hotel. There is not desk to speak of. It is not manned. The owners live on property. They are very helpful with your needs. There is a office near the front door and thats where you go for help. If they are not there, there is a buzzer on the front door. There is a side gate that you use to enter and exit the room area. There is a pool but at my time there, they were filling it. Breakfast was included. They offer dish of fruit and a plate of scrambled eggs and fried plantains. If walking, go out past the park and go Left. Within 10 minutes is a small mall with bar/restaurants and on the backside there is a grocery store. Walk 10 more minutes and go across the cross walk, there is a mall with many stores and restaurants there. Buses are available on the main road to go to downtown San Juan. The back of the hotel faces the highway and you do get some noise from that in the room. No more than most hotels.

Hotel muito aconchegante numa área residencial.

Hotel perto de San Juan, em Heredia, a 20 minutos de carro, num lugar muito tranquilo, seguro e agradável.

If you have no other option.

Poorly cleaned room. The pictures online are not a true depiction of the place. If you want to be close to the hotel and not bother with a commute, then it's worth the stay. If not, then there is no need.

dont judge a book by its cover.

This hotel was difficult to find but was quaint and clean inside. nice common area. Exterior needs work but good value for the price. Would have felt insecure if I had been alone. I would go again.

Simpel ontbijt 1ste dag fruit,koffie ,vruchtensap,2 getooste boterhammen roerei en een worstje,beetje weinig voor grote eter 2de dag alleen ipv brood 2 pannekoekjes met marple sirup dus nog maar een erbij gevraagd dat was geen probleem. Beter zou zijn om een keus te hebben

No es lo que esperaba

Buscando tranquilidad cerca de la ciudad, sin embargo la habitación contaba con una una ventana para iluminación y ventilación que daban al pasillo del vestíbulo. Sobre decir que tranquilidad no hubo ya que se oía toda la gente pasando, hablando, personal de mantenimiento de un lado para otro, etc... reservé dos noches de las q solo pude usar una para después buscar otro lugar

SCAM.

This was a terrible place! Firstly, it's a home, not a hotel. It's in the middle of a suburban neighborhood. There is no signage. I showed up and the place was CLOSED. Finally a "staff member" in his PJs came out and said his mom was asleep. Urged that we sign in (even though there was literally no one there) and showed us our rooms. When we saw the poor state and discovered that one of the rooms didn't even lock from the outside, we left the keys and booked elsewhere. FURTHER, when I requested a refund for the night that I DIDN'T STAY in the hotel, they rejected the request. Scam hotel.

Expected more

This is a very mediocre hotel for the area, there are much better options for a little bit more money. The facilities are not kept well, there is no parking, it is in a residential area, there is no staff (only the owners in pijamas). It all just feels wrong.

Hotelbesitzerin war sehr unfreundlich. Ausserdem ist der Flughafentransfer NICHT inbegriffen - man bezahlt dafür noch 15Dollar extra!
