Relaxing
The pool was very relaxing, the grounds were lovely. I was surprised that i wasn't in a hotel room but it was nice. The owner made me feel very comfortable. It is a safe place with a pleasant walk to the main Street. Easy walk to the beach and restaurants.

Might consider staying again only if for extended stay of 7+ days. Comfortable size room with well-stocked kitchenette. No other in-room amenities. Friendly owners, quaint property. Could use some updating and pest control. BRING your own pillows.

Nice stay
Very nice and helpful family who lives at the property, don't speak english -but still try to help anyway.. quiet place, close to everything you need. AC is old, works fine but makes too much noise at night (there is also a fan that is a good option, no noise but no AC) missing a place for hanging the mosquito net.

I love this studio it is located on a quiet side street. The amenities includes air condition, a small kitchen, hot water, etc.,. The place is super clean, it's less than a 10 minute walk to the beach. In Jaco I have stayed in other higher priced hotels. I would rate this hotel much higher, especially for the reasonable price. The owners are very nice and they go beyond to make your stay enjoyable.
