If you are looking for location and close to the beach this is perfect but The room I was in was a little dated, the bed and pillows were horrible. The glass block in The shower were cracked and dirty maybe even some mold. The room did not have a refrigerator, the safe you could open with a butter knife. The $87 I spent a night i feel you can get a better place. Would not recommend.

Pros: great location if you are going to the park. You can literally walk there and not have to worry about parking your car and paying. Cons: Bath towels and beach towels were stiff and rough. Very outdated decor. This hotel is not on the beach and pictures are false advertising. There is an entire street in between as well as a bus stop, so buses are idling there constantly. We didn’t eat at the restaurant.

At shoulder season prices this place offered a great value considering its ideal location. You're across the street from a beautiful beach and a 10-minute walk to the Manuel Antonio National Park. The office staff was helpful and the servers in the open-air restaurant were friendly. The rooms are in need of an update, but they're clean and the grounds are well maintained. I enjoyed my stay.

Property is older and while clean still felt like it had a layer that needed to be washed off. It’s in a great location if you’re going for the beach. No fridge or microwave which was a bummer since I have meds that need to be refrigerated. Staff was friendly. All in all they delivered exactly what was promised and nothing more.

Location, location location- only

This hotel has a great location, walking to Manuel Antonio park, many restaurants and the beach right across the street- however- as others have said, it needs some work. It’s dated, yes but also run down. The outside property and landscaping is pristinely beautiful. We saw many monkeys in the backyard/parking area trees- made the stay worth it. We didn’t spend much time in the room (why would you when you’re in Costa Rica?!) so if you’re about ease of location for outside activities this place is it. If you’re for a relaxed resort vibe, it’s most likely not.

The location is great. You can’t stay any closer to the Parqeo Manuel Antonio. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The grounds are well maintained. But the hotel is dated and showing its age, particularly in the rooms which are pretty basic. A bit of mold in the bathroom. Then again, it is rated as two-star.

This is a no frills place but yet has everything you need. Clean, quiet, tours that can be booked. Across the street from the beach, lots of restaurants close by. Right beside a path that takes you to the park. The bus stops right outside. Needed a blow dryer which the front desk had. Convenient parking. No pool but we purchased a day pass at a close by hotel.

This hotel is literally only good for the location and convenience of being next to the beach and national park. The staff seemed like they were bothered by us. Does not offer breakfast. The room itself was very outdated, smelled strongly of cleaning products and had a very uncomfortable bed. Lots of bugs and ants were invading the room. I even had a bug crawling on my back. I would never stay there again.

I would not recommend staying here. The front office was rude, very limited dining options within walking distance, beds were uncomfortable, and the overall quality of the hotel is poor. Additionally, there are dozens of vendors and people trying to get tourists to buy things and to pay to park - and they start early and stay late. The beach is nice and walking to Manuel Antonio is convenient but overall I would skip both the park and the hotel. I was very disappointed and deliberately left the area, driving an hour plus to the Uvita area to experience something better.
