The hotel was good. I chose to pay at the hotel and they overcharged me. Expedia would not help with this of course, but otherwise the stay was good. It was a reasonable night for one night before I flew out of the country

Would stay again.

Luis was incredibly helpful and kind. The room was comfortable— bare bones, but the air conditioning worked and we had no complaints. Big parking lot, breakfast was great, and it was easy to walk to wherever we wanted to go from the hotel. We only spent a night in Liberia and were just looking for a comfortable place to sleep before we continued on.

Flights were cancelled so booked three rooms at this hotel, only to find out there was no room at all. Now the hotel refuse to refund and Expedia refused to help. Total Scam!

Me encantó el hospedaje. Fue demasiado bonito. El dueño sabe muchas cosas sobre el área por lo general y da buenas recomendaciones a donde deberías ir. Fue lindo el cuarto también! Insectos pueden entrar por debajo de la puerta, pero no en exceso, y nunca supe bien cómo funcionaba la ducha, pero además fue increíble la experiencia y valió la pena!!!
