This was the second time we stayed at this place.The first time was good but this time - not so good. the sheets and towels were not clean. room cleanliness overall needs to improve. pillows had stains and blanket was not clean. Toilet in both rooms were dirty. Had a ring inside around them and when lifted, it was dirty. After the first night we had to change room because there were bugs in the room and bathroom was too dirty. my husband had to keep killing them. I would not stay there again. This is our 5th time in Jaco, the only disappointment was the hotel.

Property is exactly as expected. It’s a hostel hotel, private and non private rooms. Staff was limited in English but with today’s apps not an issue. Beach walk to center of Jaco in 10-15 mins. We had a private room. Beds are hard, room is super basic, and small, private bathroom was clean but also definitely in need of updates. Weekends tend to be more lively (noisy) however it wasn’t late. Pretty quiet after 11. Lots of San Jose families tend to flock to the beaches on weekends. Everyone was super friendly. Easy access to the beach, Aloha beach bar nearby great for breakfast. All in all. If you know what you’re getting into it’s perfectly fine. We basically used it to shower and sleep. Served us well. Just don’t expect much.

When we checked in, from outside we thought it would not be a good clean place but we were wrong. The room was very clean. Property was down the strip away from all the traffic and noise but walkable to general tourist area strip. The beach is around the corner. They have a lobby with microwave and fridge that can be used. Plan your day because they will not allow earlier check in than 2pm. We were willing to pay an extra fee but check in time was firm although we’re were the only tourist there. The staff at desk that checked us in was very personable. Price was very reasonable for accommodation received. I would stay again if ever in the area.

Attractive: nice design/style. Needed a little attention to maintenance issues: light bulbs missing/not working, towel bar broken. Broken bath window handle so you couldn't close it and keep the a/c in.

The actual location of the hotel is about a mile away from the location shown on Expedia. I booked the hotel to be in town close to restaurants, coffee, shops, etc but had to walk about an hour (round trip) to get to town & back. I also had to ask for a towel, toilet paper & soap. The wifi was hit & miss

We had a room over the front street, there was a bit of street noise but probably better than closer to the pool with the music. You also get a table and chairs outside these 2 rooms. Shared kitchen was very clean, they could use some spoons 😉 Pool was awesome, quite warm. There is definitely an ant problem pool side, kinda creepy. Nice restaurant almost right next store, less than a five minute walk to the beach. The google map on this site is incorrect, the hotel is on the south end of the beach, not the north.

We only stayed one night, the rooms were clean. Parking isnt the best, only enough for 3 cars. We didnt have space to park but its okay to park on the street.

Never cleaned my room in three days, only cold shower the first day. They had a rule that you can’t bring alcohol to your room because they have a bar, didn’t open the three days I was there. Staff was hardly around

I have to ask for breakfast even it’s indicated that it’s included. They gave me the breakfast for free, but only because I ask for it. Over all, it’s a great place if you have a car or want a place near the beach far from Jaco’s center.

I wanted to give this property five stars however I was disappointed to find out that it is not as close to the center of town as the map states, and that was one of the major reasons why I booked it. We did have to walk about 15 minutes to get to the main center of town, however if you have a car that won’t be a major issue. That being said it is a short walk to the beach and the rooms were clean , staff was super friendly and helpful with tours, and we really enjoyed the pool. We also noticed that the hotel is very family friendly, and appreciated that there was a restaurant super close by with amazing food and drinks.

Wife and i were passing though and simply needed a place to sleep after a full day at the beach. Facility is a hybrid hotel/hostel setup, so keep that in mind. Rooms are simple, A/C works great after leaving on for an hour or so, with a pool and basic kitchen available. Key driver for us was the close proximity to the beach - literally like a block and a half to the sand and a safer area of Jaco beach. Great staff. Only “downside” was the refrigerator was downstairs and given the hostel element, music and voices are a bit loud poolside and common areas throughout the night. Having said that, we were on the 2nd floor overlooking the pool and the sounds did not reverberate excessively and so really didnt bother us - must have some sound proofing in the walls :) All in all, a good one night stay for us.

Eine sehr schöne Unterkunft am Rand von Jaco. Unkomplizierter Check-In. Wegen der Lage am Stadtrand ruhig. Aktuell allerdings wegen Baulärm ab 6.00 Uhr morgens unangenehm laut. Wir haben uns trotzdem wohl gefühlt. Warme Dusche. Restaurants fussläufig erreichbar. Schöner Strand in der Nähe.
