Muy buena atención
Pros:

La atención recibida por el personal fue excelente.
La ubicación también muy buena, pues estás cerca de la playa y de la zona de restaurantes.
Las instalaciones sí están un poquito viejitas, pero creo que responde bien al equilibrio entre calidad-precio.

Cons:

La ducha, que al ser con calentador eléctrico, no tenía mucha presión y los chorros de agua salían disparados hacia la pared.

Un lieu charmant, hyper accueillant et confortable, très bon rapport qualité /prix
Pros:

L’accueil, l’ambiance, le jardin ombragé avec des tables, la chambre très propre et agréable, la literie confortable, la salle de bain commune commode et très propre, plusieurs cuisines spacieuses, les hamacs sur les perrons de chaque petit bâtiment, la situation à deux pas à l’écart de la rue centrale qui longe les plages, avec supermarché et restaurants à moins de 50m…

Un peu rustique mais quand même confortable
Pros:

Bon emplacement au coeur de Santa Teresa et avec une entrée directe vers la plage.
Les petits studios sont d'une bonne surface, on ne se marche pas dessus.

Cons:

Les constructions sont vieillissantes ; le parquet bouge, le carrelage de la salle de bain laisse à désirer, les équipements de la cuisine ne fonctionnaient plus tous.
Les climatiseurs donnent sur les balcons donc on ne peut pas en profiter.
Malgré cela, ça le fait !

Entspanntes Hostel!
Pros:

Die Anlage ist schön gestaltet. 4 kleine Häuser und dazwischen ein schöner Garten bzw. Gemeinschaftsbereich.
Das Personal ist super freundlich, immer ansprechbar und hilft bei allen Anliegen. Es herrschte eine lockere, sehr entspannte Atmosphäre.

Cons:

Ich hatte erst ein Doppelzimmer mit eigenem Bad gebucht. Das war allerdings nicht in den kleinen Häusern, sondern in einem Bereich, wo auch die Mitarbeiter wohnen. Die Gemeinschaftsküche war etwas chaotisch, es war teilweise auch lauter als in anderen Bereichen und außerdem roch das Zimmer manchmal nach Abfluss. Ich zog dann in ein anderes Doppelzimmer mit Gemeinschaftsbad und das war viel besser. Ich teilte mir Küche und Bad nur mit einem anderen Zimmer. Spart euch also das Geld für das Zimmer mit eigenem Bad. Das war es definitiv nicht wert!

Relax y confort.
Pros:

La verdad que todo. Super limpio, descansas 10 puntos. Emilio el dueño y las chicas muy buena onda, te asisten con todo.
La habitacion espectacular y la ubicacion del hotel es la mejor, cerca de todo y al lado de un super, una cafeteria, restuarants y de los cuatriciclos si es que queres alquilar uno para recorrer.
Volveria sin dudarlo.

Cons:

Nada

Very convenient an attentive staff
Pros:

Room was comfortable, really quite private for a hostel. Great to have a good empty fridge! Cooking and eating place only shared by one other person . My room was at the back so I got good sleep. The staff always seemed to be there if you wanted something . There is laundry service and they helped find the times of the elusive bus!

Cons:

No view , but you are only across the road from the beach

Cool vibe, close to everything but don't get the private rooms
Pros:

The place in general is nice, clean, jungle feel and really great placement, close to everything. The staff were lovely, really helpful.

Cons:

The private room I got was in the kitchen and opposite the staffs room so you can imagine the noise at night and in the morning. For the price paid, really not worth it. The bedroom was tiny, very basic, really unconfortable bed (can feel like the mental wires).

NO TIENE PARKING A PESAR DE QUE SI LO OFRECEN.
Pros:

Ubicación

Cons:

En las descripciones del alojamiento mencionan "parking gratis" y realmente el alojamiento NO TIENE PARQUEO PARA VEHÍCULOS. El vehículo se tiene que dejar afuera, en la calle. Para mí, que el vehículo quede bien seguro es vital, sin embargo, a pesar de que la zona es muy tranquila y buena ubicación, al filtrar los alojamientos con parking, este sale con dicho beneficio, pero es falso.
