We had a great stay at the Las Espuelas Hotel. The people were super helpful and friendly. Pool was nice and clean. Service was great, the facilities were clean but moderate. Breakfast was super and at night we could relax at the restaurant and bar. The only draw back was that there is nothing around the hotel and for every trip we needed a car.

This is a modest hotel that is well kept and well managed. The staff are gracious and helpful. It was the last leg of our 3 weeks in Costa Rica - close to Liberia airport - and convenient to local stores and restaurants. The grounds are spacious and beautifully maintained.
