La ubicación y el personal.

En la habitación, por alguna razón, las tuberías hacían mucho ruido de repente.

Sensationelle Lage direkt am Strand

Preis-Leistung: beim Frühstück musste jedes kleinste Extra bezahlt werden

Great location and spacious rooms, but the cleanliness, breakfast options, and service need improvement for the price.

5.0

The location is excellent, right on the beach and very convenient for surfing. We could walk with our boards to the beach and be in the water within minutes, and it’s also close to restaurants and shops in Santa Teresa. The studio was spacious and the pool area is nice. The bed was comfortable enough for our stay but small.

The cleanliness was not up to the standard we expected for the price. The daily cleaning was very basic and the room often did not feel properly clean afterwards, apart from the bed being made and a quick clean of the floor. The bathroom was not cleaned properly and we were left without toilet paper. We decided to cook in the studio because the included breakfast is very minimal - there are only two options (a continental with eggs, fruit and toast, or the tico breakfast with rice and beans). However, the kitchen area was also not cleaned properly. The cleaners only come until around 1pm which it’s not common for hotels. The restaurant staff were friendly but the service was quite slow and not attentive.

La playa preciosa, el hotel no tanto.

7.0

Era frente al mar.

Me pareció muy caro para lo que ofrecen, no conocía el lugar y al estar ahí pude apreciar que habían otras opciones mejores y a precio similar o mejor. La comida regular.

Adoramos e espero voltar em breve!!

10.0

A localização é ótima, o hotel é na beira da praia, tem estrutura de praia para tomar sol, ondas para surf quase em frente, o restaurante é muito bom com o café da manhã muito bem servido na beira da praia. Durante a estadia vimos muitos pássaros, macacos e esquilos pelos caminhos do hotel, uma maravilhosa experiência! A piacina tem vista pra praia, o quarto é grande e os funcionários muito atenciosos! Adoramos!

Tivemos problema com o chuveiro, que ficava frio no meio do banho, e demoraram uns dias para consertar. Mas como o lugar é quente, não nos importamos de tomar o banho frio.
