Great overnight spot for catching the Tambor ferry
Arrived rather late in the evening and only spent one night before the ferry ride next morning. Hotel was mostly closed but the night personnel were very helpful. When AC in room was not functioning they gave us another room. Rooms are spacious and ours had a lovely balcony overlooking the pool area. Beds adequate but not great. Best things were the location, beautiful old styling of the hotel with lovely wood and arches, and helpful and friendly staff. Location ideal as its on a quiet section of the beach boardwalk and directly in between the louder central tourist area and the busy ferry waiting area.

We had a room over the kitchen which was very very noisy. Avoid those rooms. Otherwise, the hotel is great location and terrific helpful staff. Nice pool and only across the street from the beach.

Not a good beach, hotel adequate
The hotel was uncomfortable and dirty. The staff was very attentive and fixed broken lamps and other things in the room immediately. The beach was covered in trash and broken bottles, not just near the hotel, but across the entire Puntarenas peninsula. Don't go to the beach here!

Clean hotel with hot water!
Clean, comfortable hotel. The only problem was the Internet was not accessible in the room, and we were located on the third floor without an elevator. Hauling suitcases up 3 floors was difficult.

Nice Stay
Nice stay overall. Good breakfast served each morning but needs a little more variation. Bed was comfortable, but the early morning workers each day are very loud which doesn't allow much sleeping past 6:00 AM. We would definitely return.
