Une étape salutaire au bord de la mer des Caraïbes
Pros:

L'accueil de Matthew et Juliet. Ils ont toujours été disponibles pour des renseignements utiles sur la région.
L'architecture en bois du gite avec la fontaine et les végétaux est très jolie et agréable à vivre.
Le petit déjeuner au choix est très bon.
Juliet, en particulier, nous a donné des renseignements très utiles pour trouver un médecin disponible dans une clinique, ma femme ayant eu un problème de santé.

Cons:

Le lit un peu étroit mais nous avons bien dormi.

A fantastic place to stay.
Pros:

Juliet was a fantastic host, she gave some excellent advice and recommendations. The place is so homely and in a great location. Its so peaceful and clean, 5 minutes walk to the supermarkets and 10 minutes walk to the beach ⛱️ 😎 with loads of bars and restaurants. The breakfast was excellent with a nice choice and tasted delicious 😋 honestly staying here will be a truly great experience by a host who is so passionate in what's she is doing. We would wholeheartedly return.

Cons:

Having to leave 😪

Excelente ubicación y buen desayuno
Pros:

Hotel muy bien ubicado y con las comodidades básicas necesarias. Nuestra estancia fue breve, solo una noche, y cumplió perfectamente como un lugar práctico para descansar unas horas en la zona. Lo mejor es el desayuno, que supera las expectativas. Además, al ser un hotel pequeño, el ambiente es tranquilo y bastante privado.

Cons:

La habitación estaba contigua a la bodega de lavado y solo separada por una puerta de madera, por lo que se percibía ruido y poca privacidad debido al tránsito del personal de servicio. Además, el baño no estaba dentro de la habitación, algo que no quedaba claro en la descripción del alojamiento. Por último, el basurero del baño no había sido cambiado, ya que encontramos residuos de la reserva anterior.

Unser erholsamstes Hotel in Costa Rica
Pros:

Es war sehr ruhig und das Bett war sehr bequem. Hier hatten wir den besten Schlaf auf unserer Reise durch Costa Rica.
Die Dusche war riesig, sie funktionierte nicht richtig und es wurde sofort reagiert (Hat immer noch nicht ganz funktioniert aber war besser).
Sehr freundliche Betreiber, leckeres Frühstück. Konnten uns gute Tipps geben für unseren Besuch.

Cons:

Im Bad hätten wir noch eine grosse Ablage gebrauchen können. Das vorhandene Tablar war besetzt mit Deko und einem Korb mit Tüchern. Nichts schlimmes also :).

Great breakfast, location, but dark rooms
Pros:

Great breakfast and super nice and helpful owners. Good location close to restaurants and supermarkets. Quiet location off the main road. Friendly staff, clean rooms.

Cons:

Dark. Very dark. Limited privacy if you uncover the windows, and even uncovered it's still dark in the rooms. Since it rained some, we spent more time in our room than planned. Hard beds, but that's typical in CR.

Hadde et fint opphold
Pros:

Fint design, rolig men sentral beliggenhet. Veldig hjelpsomme ansatte. Rent. God frokost.

Cons:

Mørkt rom og muggen lukt. Larver/mark kom seg inn på rommet flere ganger. Tregt sluk. Dårlig wifi-signal på rommet, måtte ut i fellesområdet.
