This is a beautiful hotel. The reception staff are amazing. The facilities are fantastic. Comfy bed and water bottles provided. Coffee machine plus coffee provided. TV works but in spanish. The room was great for storage had a desk, bedside lamp. Great artwork around the hotel. I felt extremely safe at the location. Breakfast was lovely boiled eggs, coffee, Tea, bread fruit and also Gallo Pinto. I highly recommend that you stay. A good quality hotel as you would expect back home in uk. I would rate this a 4 star. Location wise quite central walking distance to large supermarkets and the central plaza.

That is couldn't stay my last night. Wonderful hotel no complaints at all.

- Quirky hotel that is bigger than appears in the photos & from outside - Very helpful & friendly staff - Great location - 5 minute walk to the tourist market & 15 minutes to the central market (closed on Sundays!) - Credit Union less than 100m away that changes money CRC to / from USD - New modern bathroom & comfortable room

- Breakfast didn’t seem ready 30 minutes after the opening time. items were appearing as I was in the breakfast room, which at first was cereal, bread & papaya. Later came pineapple, scrambled eggs, cheese. Not ideal if you’re in a rush.

The hotel was super authentic and beautiful. I really loved the decoration and vibe of the place. The room was also really nice, super clean, and the bed comfortable. The quality of this place for its price is really great. My favourite part was without a doubt how nice and helpful staff were. I was travelling alone and this was my first stop in Costa Rica. They were really nice to give me directions to the bus station I had to go to the next morning. Will absolutely come back here on my next trip!

Nothing!

The staff were very friendly and accommodating. They went above and beyond to address my issues. The property and rooms were well maintained. The breakfast was certainly adequate and the room they served it in was very nice. It is within walking distance to most all restaurants and cultural spots downtown.

This is probably a US thing but be aware, there is no A/C. Also, when I arrived and checked into my room, the room was very small and had no window to the outside. Therefore it was very stuffy, especially with no A/C. They had a fan but it did little to help. The next morning I said something about moving rooms and they moved me to a much more spacious room with 10 ft ceilings and a window you could open to the outside. Even the bathroom was much larger and more modern. I would recommend that you make sure you specify that you want a room with an outside window and 10 ft ceilings.

Breakfast excellent; staff very helpful when my phone wouldn't work and needed to coordinate travel to dentist, let me use their front desk phone for calls from dentist and my husband in US; put ice pack in fridge for my teeth after dental surgery because no fridge in room; let me cancel rest of stay when I moved to closer to dentist; staff very kind; arranged pick up and transport from airport to hotel - driver Julio very helpful and polite and pointed out sights along the way.

Phone in room didn't work; no refrigerator for ice pack for face and storage of soft foods needed after dental surgery.

Great architecture, very clean. Fantastic interior design that takes you back in time. I felt like I was in "Under the Volcano". The price was surprisingly low 🔅

For a coffee producing country the coffee at breakfast was incredibly bad. The front porch is great, especially in the rain, but $ US 5.00 for a can of local beer 🍺 is a rip-off. But so is all of Costa Rica. By far the most expensive country in Latin America. They take the term "Switzerland of Latin America" quite literally.

Beautiful historic building converted into a lovely hotel. Fantastic location, within walking distance of 3 museums, the National Theatre and surrounding parks/squares. Close to supermarket and a few good restaurants. I had the pleasure of attending a live performance at the theatre right next door @ Theatre Moliere.

The sound of the train is quite noticeable, but to be expected considering the history of the area.

Thé hôtel was very Amazing. ...however there is a small inconvenience, thé sound signals of thé trains which pass not far from the hôtel even late at nignt.but it s not big probleme. ..

It s a bit shame To ask a customer who paid 130 dollars for 3 nights To paid a battle of water (hot) which he found on the table and which he used half To rinse his mouth especially since in the lobby the cold water is offred for free...

They had a simple but tasty breakfast downstairs and the building itself was so pretty. I didn't stay very long (just one night) but I ended up bringing back food and hanging out for a little bit in the open spaces. It was also close to downtown, so it was nice to walk around to see the park, museums, and stores and not really need a car. I traveled by myself but the area was safe enough for me to feel comfortable being out, and they do lock up the lobby later at night so that only people staying there can get in. Also, I really appreciated a nice hot shower ^^

Not a big deal for me personally, but the rooms (or at least mine) are cooled with an electric fan plugged into the wall, not central AC. Might be something to be aware of for more picky travelers/kids or something especially during hot months.

This was a quick one-night stop over after getting in late to SJO. I had a bus out to Puerto Viejo in the AM, so just needed a comfy, safe place to rest before another early morning. Fluer De Lys was great with helping to book a taxi for my late night airport arrival, and the taxi driver was super kind & helpful with getting me settled at the hotel. The breakfast bar in the morning was also wonderful to not have to worry about venturing out for food before catching the bus.

This spot is really close to the train tracks and holy bananas is it LOUD. However, I am definitely on the light-sleeper end of the spectrum, so for someone who isn't bothered by city noises, it probably wouldn't be a problem.
