The staff was very friendly, and helpful. The building is older, and maintenance has not been kept up. I got approached by a man drinking a beer, and begging for money, as soon as I walked out the hotel door. There is a police station, at the other end of the block. It was in a dirty area of town. The beach was across the street, but I wouldn’t recommend going there after dark. The free breakfast was delicious.

I would never stay at this hotel again. Poor room, no coffee machine, no safer. You have to hold the shower to take showers. Very few guests, probably only us stayed there although many rooms.

The building, location breakfast and staff were great. We had some issues with the shower as you have to hold the shower head at all times and the check in time is not till 3pm, which was a bit inconvenient.

This hotel is so outdated and short on amenities. No way would I stay here again. No blanket, short on towels, pillows were overstuffed and so on.

This was most interesting stay on my Costa Rica vacation, a somewhat quirky but comfortable beach hotel. My room was clean, spacious, the AC was working well, and the poolside room helped make it pretty quiet (a beach bar was across the street playing music). The bathroom had a jacuzzi style tub with a hand shower, no standup shower which I much prefer. There is no light or switch by the bed, so my cellphone served as a temporary nightlight. The parking garage below the hotel would have been convenient, but when I drove down there another guest was parked in two spots (not the fault of the hotel) and I was forced to back out. When I went to reception to inform them, they did have a backup parking lot across the street, basically an empty construction lot but locked behind a secured fence…less convenient than the underground lot, but secure which was important. I received immediate assistance from reception staff to escort me to the parking lot to open the gate, both in the evening and at checkout, so no time was lost. The morning breakfast buffet was wonderful with views of the beach across the street. The staff was great and I enjoyed my brief stay in Puntarenas.

We rented junior suite with ocean view. Ocean view was the only good thing, this was not a suite, just a regular room with a view branded as a suite. Old, barely working tv and fridge, AC was working but couldn't keep the room cool, very noisy location, with music and karaoke, windows and balcony door with gaps and don't block any noise. There were no toiletries in the room, bathroom door is with glass and huge holes , leaving zero privacy. No blinds - 5:30 am sun will wake you up. Hard to park in very small garage, where people block you car.

Hatten das Hotel für 2 Nächte gebucht und sind nach einer Nacht abgereist. Es hat wenig mit dem zu tun, was man im Portal sieht. Geschmacklos eingerichtet und in die Jahre gekommen. Personal an der Lobby war sehr nett. Können auch nichts für den Zustand. Man hat das Gefühl, dass Hotel ist in den 80ern stehen geblieben. Ich weiß nicht was schlimmer war, die orangene Plastikwand hinterm Bett oder die chinesischen Plastikornamente in der Decke über dem Bett. Das Frühstück war unterdurchschnittlich. On top war das Casino im 1. Stock. Alles in allem keine 4 Sterne, max 1-2 und das für 100 € die Nacht. Puntaresa ist an sich schon gruselig.

Very nice and cool old hotel. Great view from balconies of ocean, nice clean pool and rec. area. Friendly informative staff. Very good breakfast. Very nice walk in front to nice restaurants. large room, had a room with no windows and it was still OK. Would advise trying to get a room facing the ocean if you are spending time in the room.
