Spacious and clean, grounds were kept tidy. Did not get a chance to use the pool, but it looked nice. Had a small hiccup with Hotels.com, but everything was sorted out, and the lady that manages the hotel was very understanding and patient while we worked through it. Close to restaurants, coffee shops and beach.

We had the most private room, #5 at the end. Loved the hammock and the chorus of birds right outside. There are interesting trees and plants all around. It's a short walk to the beach which is outstanding (I do wish they would have provided beach towels). The oil was great too, clean and just the right size. The staff was so helpful, always with a smile; they advised me on getting back to San Jose via local bus, including printing the info for me.

We arrived early and were able to check-in. The room was very clean, A/C, worked great. The pool was clean. For the average person, it's walkable to the main street and restaurants. They were doing some maintenence on the roof of a unit nearby, but noise wasn't bad. Quiet overall. The kitchenette was actually very well stocked, better than most AirBnbs. I recommend. Jaco is touristy, but also has everything a tourist might want.

Typical Coastal Costa Rica property. The A/C was nice change, however, I woke up the next morning with a sore throat that rapidly became a cold/cough. Not the property's issue, only a reminder for visitors. It was quiet, but it was also rainy season (first week of August). It was conveniently located close to bus stops and not too far from the beach. Typical Jaco vibe.

Okay value for money (I.e., inexpensive, comparatively) but basic. The bed and pillows were super hard and the location is a bit off the path. The pool could use cleaning.
