A Lovely Mountain Setting

Our room was very spacious and on the first floor. We even had a balcony at the other end of the room. The pool was small and a disabled person in our party could not get in it because there were no handrails. The setting was up in the mountains north of Alajuela and the air was fresh at night. We will return to this hotel because it is not far from the airport.

STEER CLEAR and RUN, DON"T WALK AWAY

Absolute worst experience I've had in thirty years! Booked a "family" room that showed a king, double and a twin....arrived at 11pm to find a dormitory room w bunks(w double on bottom) down a dingy hallway. When I complained there was a VERY ugly exchange w a second man obviously there for muscle....warning me to be careful or else.....Needless to say, we left....and booked a true family room at Rosa de las Americas.....clean, comfortable and SAFE

Clean, comfortable, and convenient location

We were a group of family & friends travelling together and this was a great find for us to be able to get clean, comfortable, safe, and affordable rooms at the same property during the high season. It is conveniently located between sought after tourist locations (like Poas and La Paz, etc), but still in town. We appreciated the restaurant & bar so we could relax after a day of sightseeing back at our property. Wifi is a struggle in general in CR because of the volcanic mountains, but our connection here was one our better experiences for bandwidth and speed. The photos are of nearby attractions like la Paz and Poas. Last, I am unclear if they can accommodate all the time, but they even let us leave our luggage while sightseeing after our checkout so we didn't have to worry about our rental car getting broken into! This staff and property were one of our favorite stays.

Great price, you get what you pay for

Great price if you're just looking for a place to spend the night in. Super close to the Poas Volcano, only 50 min away from downtown San Jose, the receptionists are super friendly. The guy who works the night shift helped us out a lot. We checked out at 3 30 am, he even came to knock on our door at 3 10 am to make sure we were awake so we wouldn't miss our flight. WiFi worked great Room and hotel are kept clean No AC in our room but they have nice weather all year round sof you don't need it. Hot water worked No TV, unless you reserve a room with TV. No pool I would stay there if I ever go back and I do recommend it

Fraud on my credit card by the hotel

Bon rapport qualité prix mais bruyant

Nous sommes arrivés à l' hôtel Villa Pacande en Navette depuis l' aéroport pour 15 dollars la course en passant par Alajuela (bouchons et moche). L' accueil était normal,l' hôtel est correct ainsi que les chambres, le jardin est joli, l' avantage est le rapport qualité prix (33 dollars avec le petit déjeuner), l' inconvénient principal est le bruit, l' hôtel est situé en sortie de ville pas très loin de la route dans une côte et on entend toute la soirée et le matin les motos et les bus monter leurs régimes moteur. Un point négatif mais à prendre en compte. Sinon nous avons réceptionné notre voiture le lendemain à 7h directement à l'hôtel, très pratique à faire pour éviter l'attente et l'accès des agences à l'aéroport. Nous sommes restés qu'une nuit ça suffit largement pour le coin à part Poas et l'aéroport.
