Nice old building, room simple but clean. Very noisy outside with a casino across the street, so it was noisy until 3 a.m.. Other rooms may be better

6/10 Good

The best thing about this hotel is the extremely friendly and courteous and helpful receptionist who very kindly let me have the room at 10 am in the morning. This hotel has all the basic amenities and is of a good standard for Latin America. The location is five minutes walk from the main street and didn’t feel unsafe although there are some visible homeless people on the street.

All staff was lovely except the deep voice guy at front desk was impatient or mysoginistic or something. Girl in cafe and housekeeping were amazing! Hotel has a very lively nightlife outside, but we enjoyed that, -feeling like we were part of the barrio. Fell asleep peacefully. The beds and bedding were 4☆ worthy! Really. We enjoyed our stay!

My husband and I returned to the Dunn Inn after 32 years. This hotel is where we spent the first night of our honeymoon. The place looked and felt the same. Very homey, beautiful wood everywhere, personal service and solid wifi. Breakfast was hearty but bland. Coffee not a true representation of good Costa Rican coffee. Parking was easy and secure. The neighborhood has changed a lot with the casino across the street, LOTS of people hanging around outside but we never felt unsafe. Just a lot of action. Walking distance to many wonderful sights and restaurants. Great stay. Brought back some memories!

Right across the street from a casino, had some food options near.. the bed was comfy however the room was small not enough space for 3 people but I made it happen. I recommend the hotel and would stay there again.
