Staff is great. Rooms are basic but good. Bed is very comfortable. Gym is far from good and the place is a bit noisy, still would recommend. Breakfast is fantastic!

Great place to stay
It is a charming hotel with very friendly service. I love the decor and many kinds of flowers. Located so close to the University - 5 minutes and you are on campus. Hotel will arrange tourist trips. Took one last time which was great (coffee plantation, volcanos etc). Would gladly stay there again.

I love their garden and their breakfast. Also the friendly and helpful staff are a plus.
The first room I stayed #18, needs a cleaner sink area. It’s not adequate, not to standards.
The location adjacent to the main university grounds is excellent.

Buen trato traducido en una buena experiencia
Desde la llegada el trato fue excepcional... Se esmeraron en hacernos sentir cómodos y en confianza. Si bien las habitaciones son sencillas, se nivela con el lujo que implicó el trato recibido.

Se encuentra cerca a la Universidad de Costa Rica, pero no hay mucho cercano. Por lo mismo, uno depende del café Kracovia que cuenta con una carta adecuada y a un precio razonable.
Cuenta con un buen desayano y el staff es amable.

No tiene aire acondicionado, y hace mucho calor. Las ventanas no reducen el ruido de los vehículos que circulan a pocos metros, por lo que hay mucho ruido.
