Older low rise motel/hotel kept very tidy but could use updating. Very convenient location for both down-town and to head either east on the Auto Pista or back to the airport. Very handy for clients of ARCR seeking residency information. Like most of Costa Rica, overpriced for what you get--but that is a reality of this country. Breakfast was simple but OK; fresh fruit, scrambled (real) eggs, plantains, and gallo pinto; juice, water, coffee and cheap bread for toast. No mid-day or evening meals, but several good eateries within walking distance.
The pool is not heated and a bit "refreshing" if used--good size, clean and attractive. Hot-tub is NOT hot, barely tepid probably only from being so small it absorbs a bit of sunlight.
Staff were very attentive, helpful and several speak English as well as Spanish and perhaps other languages. Rooms had ample space, and kitchen with full stove, oven, microwave, toaster oven, blender, coffee maker and minimal pans. Ceiling fans not very effective and no A/C -- but viable most of the year. Seating in the lounge area was provided, but old, and of marginal comfort. Adequate only lighting for reading. Desk space, small safe, and basics. Even a wash cloth (rare in CR) but only one small bar of soap for vanity/shower though there was shampoo, and even a toothbrush with paste--so overall decent value, helpful staff, convenient, just a little shop worn.
