Convenient if you don't want to spend money on taxis in Corcovado Tours
Pros:

It's convenient because you're walking to
the airport, the Public Dock place that you take tours Corcovado and it near most popular restaurant. Please note that the pharmacy and supermarket are a little further away, about 10-15 minutes walking.

Fabulous host and a great place to stay
Pros:

The host Jeancarlos was amazing and couldn’t have done more for us - he even arranged for our car to be fixed while we were hiking in Corcovado. The room had everything we needed and the communal kitchen was really useful.

Cons:

Nothing

Met our basic needs.
Pros:

Check in was very easy as we received our info on What’s App and the gate was a punch pad. Jeancarlos was very welcoming and accommodating. The room was very basic but met all of our needs. We got a good night’s sleep and the air conditioning worked well. The room was rather musty smelling but the covered outdoor communal kitchen and sitting area more than made up for that. We were able to store our luggage securely while out at Corcovado. Overall, a good experience.

Cons:

Our main concern was the mustiness of the room.

Schöner Aufenthalt in Hafennähe
Pros:

Unser Aufenthalt war sehr gut! Der Gastgeber ist extremst hilfsbereit und wir konnten unser Auto als wir in Corcovado waren unterstellen. Die Zimmer sind basic aber haben alles was man braucht. Eine Gemeinschaftsküche steht bereit.

Cons:

Die Klimaanlage könnte noch etwas kälter werden.

Wonderful stay with a beautiful garden and an incredibly helpful host
Pros:

We absolutely loved our stay at this property. The place itself was very clean and surrounded by a beautiful garden that creates a really pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. For a budget option, the facilities were excellent — the air conditioning worked well and there was reliable hot water, which made the stay very comfortable.

Another big advantage was the secure parking inside the gated garden. We were leaving for a two-day tour to Corcovado National Park and needed a safe place to leave our car, so this was perfect for us. The owner, Jeancarlos, was truly amazing and made our stay even more memorable. We had a small issue with our car, and he went out of his way to arrange his own mechanic to fix it while we were at the park. The repair was done quickly and he charged us very little for it. I’m incredibly grateful for his help — he is a genuinely kind and relaxed person who clearly cares about his guests.

Cons:

There honestly wasn’t anything negative about our stay. Everything worked well, and the hospitality made the experience even better. We would definitely stay here again if we return to the area.
