The bathroom lighting was extremely poor and I couldn’t shave and there was no exhaust in the bathroom and the mirrors get so clouded that I couldn’t see my own hand. Water from the faucet in the wash basin was so very weak that it took a long time to brush my teeth or even to wash my face. I complained about it to the front desk staff but was of no use. I stayed there for a whole week and I know now that it was a bad choice I made. This was my 3rd trip to Costa Rica and previous stays were in much smaller hotels but were ten times better in every sense of the word! The daily rates were much higher than comparable accommodations with much better service. Well I learned enough from this experience so that I may not make the same mistake again!

Decent property but old and asking maintenance. Rooms are small and missing basic amenities like a fridge. Only 2 full size hard and one half soft pillow, also bedsheets did not have the freshness feel to it. Staff was super friendly from the front desk to plumber we had to call for flush not working, they were prompt.
