The property is clean and well maintained with a very large pool area. The location is just outside of town making it a bit more quiet. Like much of CR, it sorely lacks comfortable seating. The room had a couple of steel ladder back chairs, even the pool settees are uncomfortable with nary a cushion in sight. They offer a nice breakfast with the best hotel coffee in CR.
