Alojamiento ok para una noche si estás de paso
Pros:

Parking privado y AC
La habitación estaba limpia

Cons:

Fue el alojamiento más caro que pagué en CR y honestamente el que menos nos gustó. Necesitabas conducir para ir a comer algo ya que efectivamente está en un barrio tranquilo y no hay nada cerca.
Para una noche, está bien, pero sigo pensando que costó demasiado.

Pros:

Sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Großzügige Outdoor-Küche. Regale und Schränke für Kleidung. Haben meine Wäsche freundlicherweise gewaschen.

Cons:

Wasserausfall - aber das betraf das ganze Viertel, hat also nichts mit der Lodge zu tun. Sie haben mir einen großen Bottich gebracht, um Zähne zu putzen, Wasser zum trinken zu haben, Geschirr zu spülen - doch duschen ging dann leider nicht mehr.
Kein Preisnachlass oder ähnliches.

Pros:

I really appreciated the hospitality of the owner. They were very easy going and accommodating. I really liked the area, it was at the end of a street , quite , safe and easy access to downtown. The value for the place was great. I actually returned for a 2nd night.
