    I arrived with terrible weather and no car. The rain kept pouring and there’s nothing there. So I couldn’t eat dinner and there was no way I could have breakfast next morning. My bus left at 06:00 am and I hadn’t eaten. Didn’t see the owner anymore

    Nice room, spacious, near river

    It's right on the main road...and although it is a small village, the noise of the ubiquitous motorcycles just never goes away.

    The location is along the small river, about 800 m from the village of Siepre. This makes it perfect for those wishing to visit the Finca 6 archeological park, which is only about 5-10 minute (relaxed and slow) drive. I loved that the property is the home of the owner, and she makes available the outdoor kitchen, so I could make myself meals if desired.

    Basic facilities but satisfactory and very clean

    Beautiful on the river, perfect starting point for tours to Corcovado National Park (recommending tours with „La perla del sur“) and very caring hosts.

    No AC. Only fans, so if you are not acclimated to the heat it is tough.

    Good location to take boat to Drake’s bay, but you can stay anywhere within 100 miles and still make the 11:30 boat to Drakes. Sierpe is very limited. The staff is nice and helpful, Some birds visible from the deck. They were kind to let us keep our car there for 2 nights. Nice people.

    Tranquility of the river. Saw a huge crocodile in the river at night. Some rooms have windows, which is a bonus as it's very hot and the aircon is very noisy. Very friendly staff and good breakfast. Thank you.

    The accommodation is tired and basic. it is a bit expensive for what it is. We felt sorry for the starving and sick cat in the hotel.

    Location was peaceful by the river and the host is super nice. Our room had a river view. It is just a 10 minute walk on foot to the village and 2 mins by car so it is a good location. It is super peaceful.

    It was exactly what I needed

    Perfect spot to overnight on the way to Drake and also to explore Sierpe and surroundings. The staff were really kind and helpful. I arrived super late by bus from San Jose and they went to pick me up in Palmar Norte under the rain and brought me to the accommodation. It was a life saver as I was carrying lots of luggage and finding a taxi under the rain at 10pm was not in my plans. The room is simple but very comfortable with everything that you need, and you wake up to the views of the Sierpe river at your doorstep.

    AVOID AT ALL COSTS! This place looks like it's been abandoned for a long time. On arrival we found no staff or reception. They didn't answer the phone, didn't communicate via booking, whatsapp, email, nothing. We had to find new accommodation.

    The room was so dirty! we had a big cockroach in our room they didn’t clean the toilet even the toilets on bus stations are cleaner! The mattress was very thin and uncomfortable the smell from the bedding was so awful I think they didn’t wash it the air conditioner was very loud and it was a gap between the floor and the bathroom door so you are everything but not private the breakfast was okay but cold the stuff was okay but we didn’t get a discount for all these things

    the position was ok
