Basic but comfortable with lovely staff

7.0

Room was cramped but clean. Great breakfast included and Pierre was lovely and friendly. Convenient location near the bus stop, atm, supermarket and lots of nice restaurants. A fair distance from the park but there is Uber.

− Don't come here if you want privacy/quiet as all the rooms open onto the bar/communal area so you can have people sat feet from your door and need to keep curtains closed if you don't want people seeing in. That said the music and lights are turned off at 10pm and after that it is a very quiet night's sleep. Lots of bugs around, seemed to see more mosquitos in my room than I did outside! Also had a big cockroach friend in my shower. I feel for the size of the rooms it is a bit overpriced.

UNA ESTANCIA PERFECTA EN UVITA

9.0

La verdad que el hotel en general merece muchísimo la pena, la piscina está genial muy cuca limpia y bien iluminada. Tienes para entretenerte en todos los sentidos, juegos de mesa, villar, un bar para tomar algo, hamacas para relajarte, y al rededor buenos sitios para comer y tomarte algo! Pierre el duelo es un encanto y sencillamente si volviese a Uvita sería el primer sitio que recomendaría para alojarse. Bueno bonito y barato !

Ens va agradar molt l'espai, moltes plantes i la millor decoració dels 5 hotels que vam anar durant el nostre viatge a Costa Rica. A les habitacions hi ha pintats a les parets els ocells de Costa Rica, i li dona molta vida. La il.luminació de les tauletes de nit era bona, els llits confortables i nets, i el bany també era net i amb llum natural. Les tovalloles aixugaven perfectament. I l'aire acondicionat funcionava molt bé. L'esmorzar era complert i bo, fruita, pa, pankakes, pastissos casolans, cereals, suc, café boníssim. Tot molt bo!. El personal era molt amable i ens va ajudar amb tot el que li vam preguntar. A més l'hotel és còmode perque a la part del central hi ha molts sofàs i amaques per estirar-te, parlar, llegir, jugar a jocs de taula, etc... La zona de la piscina també és molt agradable, i l'aigua estava neta així com les amaques per estirar-se. El que més li va agradar al nostre fill és la piscina i el billar !! hi tornariem a anar!!

− L'aire acondicionat de l'habitació dona just a sobre els llits i si el poses molt baix pots agafar fred. Si estigués més centrat a l'habitació potser aniria millor. Tota la resta em va semblar molt correcte.
