Location is quiet during the day and bustling at night with lots of restaurants and bars. Free breakfast was simple and filling. Room was small, quiet and clean.

It is close to the local train tracks. The trains begin to run in early morning and cut off in the early evening.

Close to great bars and restaurants.

Felt like we could feel every spring in the very thin mattress, but we knew it was a bargain hotel and didn't particularly expect much better. Very plain and humble room, and the door lock was a joke. Parking was a bit tricky -- we ended up going around the block a few times then parking a few blocks away only to learn they had parking available at the property. All the spots out front when we arrived were taken so there wasn't a good spot to temporarily park to check-in. However, eventually a spot opened up and we were able to successfully parallel park in front of the hotel where we felt security would be good enough.

Great staff, cool neighborhood. Included breakfast is always a major plus!

The staff, location, price,free breakfast, wi-fi, and hot showers were awesome!! We stayed here twice while we were in Costa Rica and had room 4 both times. The bed was so uncomfortable. It dipped on both sides and we could feel the springs in our backs. I have a spring bruise! Our daughter came to stay for a night because we needed to leave for an early excursion the next morning. The only room they had left slept four, so we slept in there with her. The beds in that room were much better! I can't attest to the beds in the other standard single rooms, but say hell no to room 4. 😂

The walls are like paper, you can literally hear "anything" what your neighbors are doing.

Very nice and friendly staff. The breakfast was very good. Super location to walk around, vibrant neighborhood with lots of restaurants.

Narrow parking

Nice position

The hotel is located right next to train tracks which can be a bit difficult. They don't run overnight so shouldn't cause many issues. Noise cancelling headphones and some white noise does the trick

Breakfast and service was really good

Our second stay was brief but great!

We came back to this hotel and it was great. They held our bags, checked us in a little later and were able to check us out early. I liked the double room better than the balcony room even if it was smaller. We had to leave early and didnt get breakfast but it was great previously.

The mattresses were a little firm, we appreciated the extra blankets since it was a little cold, but there was a slight issue with the shower instructions not immediately available. You cant increase the water to much and you have to wait some time for the hot water. We noticed this was only an issue in our first room, not the second so not sure if it is a hotel wide. The staff member on duty was very helpful and it was clear they checked the shower the next day.

The location was great, its a cute neighbourhood, about 15min/30min walk from the major museums and downtown core. The room was basic but was clean and quiet. The place felt very safe. Staff were absolutely wonderful! We were promptly checked in, breakfast available if we wanted it (also the breakfast was great!) and the little restaurant area was super cute, and they were able to hold our luggage for a small fee. When we did have a slight issue with the shower the staff was prompt in making sure that we could get it fixed. Plus they have a cute hotel cat (not allowed in the rooms) which was a bonus!

Great location, hot water.

Some noise in my room since the garage was next door. You can hear the guests walking late at night on the second floor. Also the tv set did not work well. I had to ask for help.

The old-fashioned building.

The location of the hotel means you hear the rains beeping all night, the floor creeks as did the beds. You’ll be fine if you are a deep sleeper, but we barely slept because of the noise.

Bathroom and hot water, internet and facilities are great.

- mold in the bathroom - no shower curtain - noisy - thin toiletpaper

+ friendly staff + good wifi + hot water + good location + decent breakfast

Stayed in January 2025

The floors were very creaky and loud. You can also hear everything from the hallways and the surroundings of the hotel. The first room I stayed in had a strong, humid smell.

I loved the staff (special thanks to Alex and Ana for being so nice and helpful), the cat (Klaus is so cute), the location and the breakfast.

The bathroom in the room had a lot of mold on the ceiling and walls so it made the whole room smell very strongly to humidity. Also the window didn’t close completely and since the hotel is next to the train tracks, it was loud.

It is located very central to go to restaurants and bars in Barrio Escalante, and the street was safe enough. The room was big and the staff were nice. The breakfast was really tasty and the restaurant is nicely decorated.
