A nice location just outside the main downtown area. Room was clean, breakfast was quick and tastey. Only negative was that there were many mosquitoes in the garden area that our room was located.

This hotel is right on the beach and has a great view from the bar. We liked that there were beach chairs and a nice big pool. The issue was the partying. The walls are paper thin and we had a huge party going on in the room next door: loud music and singing, dogs barking, you name it! Didn't sleep a wink!

I was disappointed by south beach this time. Wifi was only available in and around room, then had to switch to a iffy one when eating. Alsobif booking by a third party not guaranteed the room you paid for. Probably wouldn't go back

Older charming hotel. Great traditional Costa Rica breakfast daily. Nice pool. Amazing beach. Able to rent boogie boards and take surf lessons. Efran at the beach bar was friendly and made great cocktails. Katherine at front desk was very helpful. She made arrangements for excursions and taxis and was so very nice. Sweet hotel dog Flocko was a memorable part of our stay. Would return.

Most of the staff was friendly. Only one person was not very nice. Javier was the friendliest person on the site. Had to ask for towels and blankets twice. If I do return to Jaco, I will not stay here.

The property was somewhat old and definitelyoutdated. Several things definitely needed maintenance and/or updating. Parking was good and secure. Hotel location was on the beach and very nice despite no ocean or beach views from any room. Extra charges for what I thought should’ve been included such as having a friend stop by and hang out for a couple hours. $15 to register that friend. Evidently typically charged extra if you wanted fruit with your breakfast. All in all I would rate this place average.
