Average one night stay

The rooms where spacious and clean. The spa is not included, you have to pay 20 $ extra per person. The wifi was not that good and the breakfast buffe was more like a simple continental breakfast. I think the hotel was a bit overpriced considering what was included and not.

This was my first time in Costa Rica. I loved that the hotel was super close to the airport and traveling to other cities was extremely easy using Uber and the bus. But, there were seperate beds and the bed i had was a twin so my partner and i couldnt sleep comfortably together. The worst part was having no water when I needed a shower….and the towels were old. However, the Staff was absolutely amazing!! Each one was very helpful and cheerful too. They were pleasant and made the trip very enjoyable.
