Pros:

We had a great day at the café Playa Negra Hotel. It is a small boutique hotel and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. The restaurant is excellent. It was our second visit and we will definitely come again.

What a wonderful stay!
Pros:

My husband and I had the BEST time here. The room was perfect for two people and the hotel provides shampoo, conditioner, body wash, towels, and there was air conditioning and a ceiling fan. We loved that there was breakfast included and a bar and restaurant on site. There was a well maintained pool in their beautiful outdoor space, a even a little boutique! The staff was so attentive, friendly, and accommodating. Walking distance from the beach, but we drove there and it took about 2 minutes. Highly recommend staying here if you're going to Playa Negra!

Cons:

Nothing!

Génial, triste de repartir!
Pros:

Le lieu est vraiment top (jardin entretenu, piscine, bar extérieur, musique d’ambiance)
Le personnel était adorable, absolument rien à reprocher! Nixon a été au petit soin dans son service avec nous!
La nourriture était très bonne comparé à certains endroits qu’on a pu faire, les prix sont corrects!
Présence d’un groupe de musique qui ramène un côté chaleureux!
On avait prit une suite spacieuse avec une terrasse, on a pas regretté notre choix

Cons:

Malheureusement le lieu est très poussiéreux du à la route absolument chaotique devant, mais cela ne concerne pas l’hôtel, à prévoir, 40 minutes de route vers tamarindo, mais on s’habitue 🤣
Encore merci au personnel!

Pros:

Habitaciones muy cómodas y limpias, la piscina y las áreas comunes muy agradables. Buen desayuno.

Cons:

Los precios del Restaurante son excesivamente caros. Hay que salir a comer a otro lado, 2500 colones por una cerveza.
