This was a very basic Tico Inn. Our flight arrived late and after picking up our rental car we were less than two miles from Santa Maria. We had both emailed to prepare staff for late arrival and then called upon landing. We arrived and staff opened the gate within 5 minutes of ringing their bell. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good including fruit plate, eggs, sausage and toast served on an outdoor patio/garden with hummingbirds feeding on the pretty foliage. As I initially said, it is basic, but for the price, it was a safe convenient place to stay.

The shower knobs were hard to turn. At least the water was hot. They advertise free cont. bfst but there was nothing not even any coffee made; I had to make my own coffee and this area was dirty. People had eaten pizza the night before and just left the empty box there. I had told the guy that checked me in the night before that I would need an airport shuttle which they advertise as free. He acted stunned like no one ever asks for it but he didn't say it could not be done. I was in the lobby at 9:30am and there was no one at the desk. Finally a woman wanders in that works there and I tell her I've booked the shuttle. She knew nothing about it. The guy didn't tell her. Thank goodness she was able to find someone who took me. The customer service here is horrible. The staff just doesn't care😟

The hotel was lovely, though we were there for a quick sleep before an early morning flight. Expedia dropped the ball for the third time in our Costa Rica experience and didn't actually book our reservation. Luckily the hotel let us in the closed gate and found a room for us. It is off the beaten path and we had a little bit of a struggle finding it. We found a tourist bus parked and asked for help; he escorted us. The staff was wonderful and helpful.

I had to wait nearly 10 minutes in the street to be let in, then was told that there was no shuttle to the airport and I would have to pay for a taxi, then I found a cockroach in the hallway, a variety of insects in the room, and to cap it all, a bed without pillows.

My room had a number of issues that were not individually horrible but they added up! The staff was extremely nice and seemed to care for my well being. That is always nice! Super close to the aiport and my room was economical.

Quiet and cozy hotel 5 min drive from the airport. Very friendly and helpful owner!

A little remote if you haven’t got a car. No shops or restaurants on road. No English spoken, trying to confirm the free taxi to the airport 24 hrs before arrival proved a problem.

Not bad for price. But few things to do

I felt like we were in lock down! They lock the door at night so you can’t get out! And then you have to call them for them to open the door! Or if you wanna go out at night you can’t! The shower wasn’t good you have to wait for a while for hot water! The breakfast wasn’t even presented in the morning! Good thing we were staying for one night! And the air conditioner was covered by blinds! Look at the pictures to get a better understanding

Arrived late because we were leaving for the airport early next day. Check in was fast and the guy who Che led us in was very friendly and proficient. They also offer free airport transfer which we took advantage of. Have attend here 4 times now and love it.

After a bit of trouble finding the hotel we enjoyed all aspects of the stay. I appreciate being able to wash my car in the parking lot and the curtesy ride to the airport. Ricardo and his sister are friendly and helpful hosts. Thank you very much we will recommend the hotel to anyone going to Costa Rica.

It was a clean and small room,the bed was nice and comfortable. I found the bathroom sink had no hot water and the shower head pressure was nonexistent. The winding stairway to my room was difficult to bring up my luggage. This hotel is basically a private residence, with no nearby restaurants or services. There is one restaurant that offers delivery but with a added delivery charge. There is a common our area that has a refrigerator ( that is stocked with drinks that you pay for) and a sink with a microwave. Since is only five minutes from the airport the aircraft noise was difficult to sleep and the refrigerator noise also made it difficult to sleep. If you open a window there was no screen to keep out the bugs.
