                  We were unable to get a hot shower in all 3 showers that we tried. We were there for 3 nights, so we were pretty unhappy with that situation. The rest of it was good.

                  The beds are unconfortable and hot water takes forever to arrive. Sheets and the room in general wasn't very clean. Breakfast is quite good. I'd recommend other options like La Casa del Parque for a better price it was cleaner overall and more comfortable.

                  Great location, clean, nice bathrooms with hot water

                  Costa Rica Guesthouse was a good place to spend my last night before flying out back home. As almost all hotels in CR it is overpriced, but it was clean (though bedsheets had lots of old ink stains on them) and the bathrooms were nice.
