Self service breakfast available all the time. Great for early departure to the airport. Prompt transfer to the airport very early in the morning. Clean and tidy , compact room but large lounge area and kitchen. Didn't go out so unsure of quality of local amenities but there is a supermarket and eating places near by. Nice and quiet except for the odd motorbike. A good inexpensive place to stay when useing the airport.

Cute little place in the heart of Alejuela, walking distance to many things, and a 10 min drive to the airport. Staff was communicative and check in was easy. The room was cute and comfortable with a nice bathroom. Good AC, hot water, and great water pressure in the shower. Even basics to eat in the shared kitchen.

Loved the decor and personal touch of autographing the walls. Other guests woke me at 6 am when they got up but I am a light sleeper so that can’t be helped. Over all lovely welcoming first impression of Costs Rica

Relaxing end to trip in Costa Rica

We stayed the night before our flight back to the Uk and went out for something to eat locally. Very comfortable room and garden area we could relax in. The host was very accommodating and collected us when we dropped our hire car off and dropped us back at the airport for our flight for $5 in the evening and $10 for an early morning transfer which we thought was very reasonable

Great little hotel for short stays

Small simple hotel with about six rooms. We definitely stay there again, an economical option. They provide eggs and fruit and toast for you to make your own breakfast. They also pick you up and drop you off at the airport for five dollars.

A small, spartan room w/bath. Very clean. Make your own breakfast was just fine. Very reasonable cost to pick us up at airport. Also enjoyed cost effective transportation to our car rental company. This place is good for a quick stay in the city.

Reasonable price for a short stay to catch an early morning flight. Property doesn’t look like much from the outside (probably for the better to keep it less conspicuous), but opens up and expands within. I was immediately greeted by staff who gave me useful info. Quite pleasant and friendly to chat with, could speak English well (though I spoke in Spanish). I had reserved a car ride to the airport the following morning 4:45 am. They were available on the dot (actually the truck was stored within the residence), pleasant ride and conversation. The driver had gone to college in London… pura vida. Price was no longer $5 but $10 usd. Still, this was cheaper than the going rate for an uber.. room was clean with ac available. Shower was fine with responsive on demand hot water. Overall I recommend. Will stay again if given the opportunity
