The property was in a very quiet neighborhood. Which is nice considering how loud with traffic noise some places can be. It was centrally located from the main highways and fast food restaurants if you’re hungry and arriving late at night. Friendly staff and a good bargain if you want a place to crash and get up and hit the road early.

The people were friendly and accommodating.
The on-site restaurant served good food.
It was an easy walk to other restaurants and Walmart.
It is only a few minute drive from the Pan-American Highway.

We checked into the hotel just after 7pm. We were awakened by pounding on the door at 10pm. The girl tells us they double booked and they want us to VACATE the room and they would get us a room at another hotel! What? I'm already asleep and my husband has to deal with this woman demanding that we leave. We had already paid for the booking via Expedia and my husband refused to leave. It was not a pleasant experience to wake up to!

Quiet little hotel tucked out of the way. Only confusion for me was how to set the water temperature in the shower - I’ve never seen an electric shower head!

Very clean. The most lovely staff. Got stuck there when our flight got cancelled. The woman at the front desk was so helpful
Was unsure of the area but we could walk to Walmart. We were told the restaurants were another 500 metres but it was dark
Max 15 minutes to the airport

Had to book extra night near airport after cancelled flight. Nothing wrong with the area or hotel just not to my standards. More of a motel than hotel.

It was clean and close to some shopping. There wasn’t anyone at the front desk later in the afternoon. The shower was difficult for me to get hot water as it was so high to reach the electrical apparatus.

Close to Walmart and the "American" part of Liberia. Very clean and nice, quiet and quaint.
The hotel has a small restaurant, and some of the staff knows English, if your Spanish is not good. If you are renting a car, they can deliver the car to this hotel as well, which is convenient.
As of 2024 you can get there from the airport with Uber for about $12, the taxi is about $20.

The hotel is located in a residential neighborhood with a nearby bar/lounge. The bar played loud music until midnight so we could hear the thumping which was not conducive to sleep. The bathroom was tiny and the electrical panel is located IN the shower above the shower curtain which did not look safe. Luckily, we were there only 1 night and opted not to use the shower.
