The food was absolutely terrible, one of the worst restaurants I've been in CR, and I've been to plenty. 8000 colones for a "casado" that was mediocre, when you can pay 3000 in a small restaurant anywhere and get much better quality. The bathroom smelt of urine, and the room was not well cleaned. I am not coming back, that's for sure.
