    Wifi patchy. Keys for lock to room rusting so difficult to open at times.

    Not too far from town, clean but basic. Friendly owner.

    The room was a bit old, but ok to sleep. We had just a fan (no AC). The location is a bit outside the main road. The WiFi was ok but not perfect from our room. The communication is only in Spanish. They provided towels.

    No issue for us but you have a steep uphill walk to property, WiFi was sometimes intermittent

    Ideal for Corcovado stop off, lovely family, close to get to places in town

    Nothing major but there is no hot water. However it was so hot that it didn’t bother us

    Karina and the family are very welcoming and helpful! The room was very spacious and the kitchen had all we needed.

    Toilets and shower outside of the building, not so great to walk in the middle of night, as it's not that gut lit there. Rooms are very hot during the day

    Good value for the money, host is very nice and welcoming, location is great, about 5 min. From the main beach, facilities are basic but for the most part clean

    The place is quite rustic, but that’s what we expected for such a reasonable price.

    Karina is a great host! She made coffee for us in the morning and offered to book tours for us.

    The rooms was ridiculously hot at all times and the bathroom situation was awkward and the one for the non en-suites didn’t have a sink in it

    The family running the place were super helpful and kind and it was good value for money.

    Good location, host came to pick me up from the boat. They were very friendly and helpful. It is a nice but basic place to stay for a short time. Bed linen and towels were fresh, room was clean however there was a bit of a dust here and there. Powerful fan and good water pressure.

    Nothing really! The only thing I would say is the kitchen was very basic but in our time there we still managed to make do and use what was available so nothing major.

    Karina is a very kind and attentive host. She helped us booking transportation and she gave us all the info we needed. The room was nicer than what we expected and extremely clean. Bed is very comfy and the location is just perfect.

    Barking neighbourhood dogs - but that was out of the properties control. Not a reason to not choose this property

    Friendly helpful welcoming host, comfortable bed, clean room, outside sitting space, easy walking to beach and restaurants

    It was a little bit difficult to find, but Drake Bay is sort of confusing if you've never been into town. Most of the navigation apps were not helpful finding the exact location... But they did get you close.

    Carolina is a very kind and gracious host. She was super accommodating and helped me with the parking situation while I was on a tour. The room is very simple, but colorful, clean and comfortable. Comfortable. I enjoyed sitting out on the balcony watching the birds and butterflies. I would definitely come back and stay again!

    One can hear pretty much everything that's going on outside, maybe bring ear plugs. Other than that, there is nothing to complain about.

    The host is very friendly and picked us up from the boat. The place itself is basic but has pretty much everything you need. You only get cold water in the shower which is normal for the region, the kitchen is well equipped and supermarket and dive shop are just around the corner
