Estancia bien, pesimo desayuno
Pros:

Las instalaciones son muy minimalistas y en communion con la naturaleza.
Muy bellas

Cons:

Breakfast Bad

Para el monto que se paga que es altisimo y al ver que las instalaciones son muy bonitas. Cualquiera piensa que el DESAYUNO TAMBIEN ES BUENO, PEROOOO NO LO ES.

Colaboran con una cafeteria abajo y tienen un menú de desayunos diferente al que le dan a los huespeds. El de los Huespedes es super pobre, básico se queda bajo.
El desayuno nacional y otras opciones es triste, hasta la fruta es mala.

Me he hospedado en cientos de hoteles en Costa Rica ya Que viajo cada 3 meses a este hermos país y no me habian ofrecido opciones tan malas y tristes para desayunar.

Para lo que el hotel cobra, deberian valorarlo para darle una mejor experiencia al cliente, ya que no dan ganas de desayunar en ese lugar.

New well located hotel near shops and the beach
Pros:

The hotel is modern and very new. The room was small for the 3 of us, but OK for two nights. The beds were comfortable. It's pricey for the lack of facilities, but its well located near many restaurants and coffee shops and walking distance to the beach. They were building a small pool which will be a bonus when ready. They don't offer breakfast on Monday, but in exchange they washed our clothes, a nice gesture, and will ensure to warn people about this on the website.

Cons:

A bit pricey compared to well established hotels nearby called Las Olas. Our room had a view of the street so we heard motorbikes and passing traffic.

Superb
Pros:

The property is stylish, clean, and has an awesome location close to food and the beach. Staff were friendly-- we especially loved Maria, who kept the hotel very clean. Front desk staff were helpful, but were around for limited hours. Breakfast was tasty.

Pros:

Everything is very authentic. A cozy, small, and stylish hotel. Quiet and pleasant. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. There are cafes, restaurants, and small shops nearby. A 7-minute walk to the beach. I will definitely come back here.

Pros:

Awesome location and very clean. Staff is very helpful and friendly . We walked to the beach every day .. no need for a car! We had one but did not really use it much ..

Cons:

Only issue I had was that the hot water works with solar and it was cloudy so when I showered in the early morning the water was cold .
