The location was perfect

The breackfast poor. The building was old

Staff was friendly and helpful

The rooms are ok but a little old styled

Nice pool. Good location for quieter beaches. Good breakfast. Friendly staff.

Loft suite was very disappointing. Kitchen is not set up for self catering (no stovetop as advertised) so self catering not possible. Kitchen units and cupboards broken. Bedroom lights went on and off randomly. Bathroom tiny and dark with no window - not what you’d expect when paying for the biggest room/suite at the hotel. Restaurant overpriced and no atmosphere. Food took ages with only 8 people eating.

Perfect location, nice grounds. Great service.

AC did not work properly when we got there, but it was fixed quickly.

staff was friendly and helpful. the place was really clean and the breakfast good

Too far from beach, food was not good.

The breakfast every morning was great. The staff were friendly and helpful. Our kids loved the beautiful swimming pool—we spent a good part of our stay poolside! The beds were very comfortable and we appreciated the housekeeping coming daily to tidy things up for us.

We stayed in a loft suite and the stairs were very creaky. We didn’t rent a car so we had to call a taxi to get to and from town, but if we’d had our own transportation the location would have been perfect. We did walk to both nearby beaches which was convenient but a bit dangerous with young kids to be walking on a busy road.

Good breakfast. Beautiful pool area. The dinner special was very good. Small hotel. Definitely a boutique hotel so if you want local or rustic feel not for you.

.Our first room was very noisy.. Unsure what caused it. We moved rooms with no difficulty however. Location not beach front and long walk to carillo village or samara although short taxi ride.

Location and pool

the amount of large ants in the room

clean

very nice facility. cute and intimate.

the hotel manager was rude . on my first day I was scolded for soiling a bath towel due to medical condition and told they were new towels. I’ve never had a hotel question soiled towels. that is the point of being in a hotel. they provide clean towels and linens. each day I had to make multiple request to have the towels taken to laundry replaced with clean towels. there are basically three staff. a cook -manager and asssitant manager. nothing is accessible to guest without asking. Guest must request ice - and you get very small bucket. the hours they are available is 7am to 9am. on first night I arrived very late. no internet and the toilet would not flush. I had to request assistance to carry bag upstairs to second floor. no elevator. . the breakfast is nice however even this is very controlled by manager. every table the same size. yet you must sit at a table with the appropriate number of placemats. you are given two coffe pods per day and if you want more you are charged. no bottled water is provided. if they would focus more on guest relations and less on pinching Pennie’s. they would have an awesome place.

The hotel was our favorite of the five that we stayed at in Costa Rica. It's well run and the onsite manager Luis is attentive and personable. He is available to help in any way including booking tours and helped us find someone to repair a flat tire very inexpensively. The rooms were extremely clean, the beds were really comfortable and there was great water pressure. There's an inviting pool and a full service restaurant that served an included delicious breakfast each morning. The grounds are inviting and beautiful bougainvilleas flank the entrance. The hotel is ideally situated between beautiful and less populated Playa Carrillo and the more busy and fun Sámara.

Minor issues. The internet was a little weak but we did manage to stream videos to watch on our laptop. There are Nespresso-style coffeemakers that require little pods. Guests are provide one pod for their stay and additional pods cost $2 (however good coffee is part of the free breakfast starting at 7 am). Know that I would return to this hotel and recommend it to others.

One man carries out all the duties of the hotel, and al.ost alone. That is Luise, he is o e amazing person, all smile and happy. The hotel and facilities are decent, however, close to the main road. It is a 50 min walk to town taking the beach. We loved walking back on forth even at night, around 10 pm. As we see tons of crab trying to escape us.

Very close to the main road and it gets noisy in the wee hours of the morning

clean and staff were awesome!

far from town but the walk on the beach was incredible;)

Super friendly staff, great swimming pool, very clean, comfortable bed, good location between the 2 beaches. We also had dinner and lunch at the hotel restaurant that were very good and not to pricey. It's not super fancy but its a great option for samara

Bathroom is a bit small, breakfast can be more varied

Louis the host was exceptionally friendly and service full. place was well designed and comfortable…

Our room was right on the main highway and quite noisy. We asked for a change of rooms and was told they were full.
