Had a private room: they were able to check me in hours early! , super clean , safe, comfortable, great towels , nice rock-lined shower area , breakfast OK (but included w/ coffee) , right in “downtown” , bus stop right in front of pension , knowledgeable tour info , patrons were quiet, really fast WiFi . Didn’t use kitchen but it was very nice and ample , paid around $125 for 3 nights with taxes - SUPER value. A few little things : bring earplugs and use white noise app (wind is almost as loud as motor bikes that rip around the area unchecked) , and a couple of staff could have better attitudes (I am a single, middle-aged white American guy sin man-bun / tats / nose ring … ) , but for the price who cares. One tip for food : restaurants in town are pricey and average … Cafe Jimenez is a block down has awesome empanadas , papoosas and baked goods (cheap, fast w/ nice ambience & really nice people) … upstairs the best burger I’ve had in Central / S. America in 25 years of travel. Thank you Booking.com for your consistant recommendations … you guys are great !

Nosie , some staff attitudes.

Staff were very helpful and went out of their way to find the information you needed. They spoke a minimum of three languages. Location was perfect. They have a kitchen to prep your own meals. The common area was a great social center. The courtyard was a great place to chill. We even had an Easter egg hunt for our family. Highly recommended.

I chose a double bed room because i booked it really late. There was just enough room to put our luggage on the floor. It was small but not expensive. The window didn't open, so there was no fresh air. The fourth night, I got a bigger one bed room with a private bathroom. No complaints. It was perfect.

A range of tours on offer for which the Pension is only an agent, so you pay the tour company or location. Nice garden with seating. A largish kitchen for those who prefer to do their own cooking.

The breakfast was a disappointment: gallo pinto toast and coffee, satisfying but bland. Curtains are not all they could be, barely giving privacy never mind darkness. This is the norm in Costa Rica as most of us are up with the sun.

The Staff was very kind and willing to help. For the price Ive paid was fair with the room Ive stayed. Breakfast was great! And the women was very kind when I told her I was vegan, she adapted.

Maybe an extra blanket. And regarding the breakfast, have a vegan option by default. I would recomend a thicker courtains, since Ive noticed I could see through at nights if the lights are on

The property and the grounds were nice, the kitchen with free tea and coffee was very useful. The morning breakfast included was so so good! Really enjoyed this. The room was similar to the pictures, and the bathroom was nice with free toiletries. Location was central.

The room was quite hot, and also there were quite a lot of bugs + ants in our room.

Really good value for money. We stayed in hostel selina private rooms the first 2 nights then moved here and it was much better here in my opinion. They have a kitchen with all utilities you may need plus free tea coffee and water etc which is a really nice touch.

Locks on doors felt a bit flimsy. Bed was abit lumpy but minor in the scheme of things. Overall very good. Employee on front desk was nice.

Excellent breakfast included in your star. Great location close to the local shops, bars and ATM. Also short of hilly walk to the bus station. Kitchen was laid out well. Free filter coffee and large fridge and prep area with plenty of cups, plates mugs and cutlery.

Kitchen had a lack of decent pans with lids to cooks and small sharp knives to cut veggies

All the ameneties were really great. The common area is well thought off, everything is pretty (shoot out to the little bottles in the pavement). It's righ in the middle of town and a close ride to many activites (Monteverde cloud reserve, Cataratras El Tigra in a 30min or less car ride).

We would like to take coffee to go but it wasn't possible.

The breakfast was great three choices. Every day communal kitchen was well-maintained and clean. The room was everything I expected with a beautiful view of the courtyard. It was a laid-back, relaxed atmosphere. It’s hard to tear myself away from it.

The noise from the traffic on the street right out front sometimes overwhelms your conversation

Excellent location great access to everything. Great breakfast, made by a wonderful couple. Free coffee, warm showers, nice seating areas. Yoga mats available, great sized kitchen.

A fully functioning small sharp knife and a pan for boiling pasta would be good rather than the improvisation that allowed me to cook.
