Kristian has been very helpful in making our stay in Costa Rica the best possible. He gave us many great recommandations of very affordable activities and restaurants. The accommodation is great.

I liked how close this place was to many restaurants and the beach (where you can see a wonderful sunset view). The owner was very friendly and gave me advice on my bicycle trip going south.

The location is great if you want to take the ferry boat. Although Google maps showed us a lication far up the street the locals could tell us where it was and we found it imediatly. The receptionist was very kind and we could park the car inside. The beds are very comfortable.

This was a transit place for us as we wanted to stop for the night before moving on to Quepos. Orlando, the owner, is a VERY nice man. He was waiting for us when we got off the fairy. This facility is literally 2 minutes from the ferry terminal, so the location is great if you are in transit (absolutely not for a long stay). This place is very small, but it was very clean and offered a great shower, and a confortable bed. It also provides air conditioning which is a must, and a small fridge.
