"Very nice and friendly stay for a weekend with my partner. Conveniently close to the airport, it has a very nice garden. The rooms are spacious same as the bathroom only thing is that the bed was very noisy and the ventilator could have been a bigger one. After a very sunny day the room was very hot and that little ventilator could not make it. Other than that it was great. "

"We loved this little spot! It was a great place to land after our flight. Very close to downtown Alajuela, which meant that we could walk out our door in the morning and find a nice cafe and good food at the Central Market. Our only challenge was that the traffic was quite loud overnight; my partner had a hard time sleeping, even with the provided earplugs. I recommend this location for sure for heavy sleepers."
