Older rooms comfortable but shower had nowhere to put soap or anything else. Otherwise good service, nice breakfast. Not too far from a nice mall and supermarket. Staff very nice and helpful.

Great Staff - Needs a little TLC!
Everyone on the staff was super nice and friendly. The hotel is outdated and on a scale of 1 to 10 cleanliness is about a 5. They did have a good breakfast that was included. However is you get a room in the front of the hotel, you can expect it to be loud.

Value Stay
We booked a room at the last minute and got a very low rate for our room. The staff was very helpful and responsive. The experience felt like it was a place in need of a renovation, but it was serviceable and clean enough. After exploring the city and looking at comparable places to stay for reference, it was worth every penny. It is not the Ritz, but it has the essentials.

Disliked: Amenities
The room was very dirty upon arrival. There foot marks all over the bathroom floors. There are also dirty marks on the wall as well. The sink doesn’t drain properly, you have to keep lifting up the plug to drain the water. What I like about the place is the garden.
Rooms are dated, bathroom not clean, walls full of stains. I even found some dry and old contact lenses in the nightstand. Bed is definitely not comfortable. Coffee was good and the location is convenient. Will never stay there again.
I stayed here for four nights & would sum up my stay as ‘barely adequate’. It is extremely loud, due to nearby bars, traffic, and flocks of noisy birds, making sleeping difficult. The mattress felt like sleeping on a sack of cement & the breakfast was basic. Finally, the staff was not friendly or particularly helpful. When I asked for an iron, the receptionist gave me one that was obviously broken. Stay elsewhere.
Rooms were only cleaned very superficially, if at all. Surfaces in the bathroom were obviously not wiped down from previous guest. The second room I had was overall nicer and acceptable from a cleanliness perspective. Ancient towels that urgently need replacing.
The place itself is beautiful, too bad that there isn't more effort put into it.
The staff are generally nice and I appreciated them feeding some local cats.
Breakfast is extremely limited and was just about enough for me as a woman, all my male co-travellers left hungry.
this hotel can be an inspired scene for a ghost movie, with amenities in the 1930s, shaking internet, and a wind blowing dark garden. the staffs were trying hard but overall lack of money to make things to work.
Staff was very accommodating and nice even though there was a language barrier.
The first room that they have had roaches in it. Staff changed my room.
This hotel is no way near a 3 star hotel.
Staff was very nice. Property wasn’t

Front desk person very helpful and treat customers very nice, will back again
facilities was dark, old, dingy and not welcoming. Some of the staff was not friendly and there was no housekeeping services. No mention when checking in. I had to bring dirty towels for clean ones. Asked to clean out garbage cans, didn’t happen. Felt ignored. In addition, wifi (they say management is working on It & 12 days later still not working!) doesn’t work in rooms or hallways, thin old tatty towels & blankets, no air conditioning, leaky veranda, mouldy shower areas, no elevators, bugs/flies in bathroom. Totally unacceptable accommodations!
Surprise to read 4 stars reviews on Expedia site!!!
For a one night cheaper stay in San Jose, it is a nice enough hotel. The location is good, next door to a Starbucks (for the real stuff you have to go to a plantation), there is a grocery store (Auto Mercado), and a few restaurants, all within walking distance.

I highly recommend this property to those who want an authentic experience. If you expect luxury, this is not the place for you. If you want to experience "ordinary" culture and typical Costa Rican lifestyle, i believe this is a great choice.
