Guest Reviews
- Bianca (9/5): - Casa grande e pulita con lavatrice e centrifuga. TV con un'app simile a Netflix. Patio sia davanti la casa che dietro molto carini Doccia fredda e senza doccino e amaca non funzionante
- Heidi (9/5): Spacious 2 bedroom apartment - 2 bed apartment down a quiet side track, 5 minutes from main bus station, supermarkets and town. Really friendly, helpful owner who answered all our queries promptly and sorted out any issues in a timely manner. Our arriving bus broke down and we were 4 hours late, after midnight, but she ensured we would find and access the property. Very clean. Key access to front. Excellent wifi/internet/network & streaming services on TV (eg Netflix). Basic kitchen, 2 ring gas hob, fridge/freezer, microwave, coffee maker, a few pots and pans, plenty of cutlery and crockery. Twin tub washer/dryer in back patio, with drying lines.
Large living room with 2 large armchairs, table, chairs, several fans, flat screen TV. Multiple powerpoints throughout. Good lighting throughout.
2 large bedrooms. Comfortable beds, fans, mirror in main bedroom, shelf in second.
Good sized bathroom
The owners asked us of any issues and said they would address them, so hopefully it will be perfect for the next guests! Has a smelly drain aroma, but ok if doors/windows open and/or fans on. Could do with a couple of smaller pans in the kitchen. No visible signs of recycling. Cash only (but US$ or colones). Lack of storage in bedrooms, no bedside tables or lamps. No hooks anywhere apart from one on back of bathroom door. Needs cleaning clothes and more bin bags.

- Kbo123 (10/5): Exceptional - The house is fabulous. Really clean and comfortable Communication was poor.
- Ania (10/5): Lovely home in good location - Lovely friendly and helpful host. Great value for a whole place in a quiet neighborhood in easy walking distance of all the tour companies and town. Well stocked kitchen, good facilities (washing machine, streaming service on TV). Great spot to stay before jumping into a Corcovado adventure. It does get very hot, but the fans help a lot and it's such great value for the home, the heat was only a minor issue for us. Would stay again for sure.
- Yael (8/5): Very nice - Big house all to ourselves. 2 hammocks were nice. Covered parking space. Washing machine. One standing fan per person. Owners were very nice. Wifi didn't always work (one day it was due to a neighborhood problem.) Sparse kitchenware. House was very hot! Some windows opened but it only cooled down in the late evening. Drapes and drape poles fell down. Make sure to text the owner on WhatsApp, not on the booking.com app. Remember, no hot water at all.
- Arjen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Haselberger (8/5): Very nice! - It was a nice house and offers everything you need. Check-in and out super flexible and easy. Its located quite well you can reach everything easily by foot. Just a bit hot inside even with three ventilators. All in all everything perfect!
- Raymond (9/5): We had a very pleasant stay in this spacious and clean bungalow with verandas. The house was a little hot but well equi -
- Karolina (3/5): Good location but not so happy with the way we were treTed - Good location and ok room Host cancelled our stay 3-4h before the end of check in time. We struggled with internet and were a bit later than predicted time. She offered different room but I found it unfair that she just cancelled on us.
- Claudio (8/5): Good for the price. Comfortable to spend the night - The location and the staff That it was warmer than being outside. Some of the curtains were semi-transparent and other curtains would move with the fans, making feel exposed. The bathroom had a bad smell.
- Beat (1/5): I would not stay there again - The wifi was good. It was nice that they tried to accommodate us, as there was a problem with our booking. Its hard to say if this was all unfortunate or just a scam. Firstly, we got told there was a leakage in the house we booked, but just minutes later, we were told that we could come, everything would be fine. When we arrived, the landlady barely welcomed us and said, the accommodation would be over there, where another lady was waiting. She showed us the appartment which was clearly not the one we booked. We inquired, and this lady said, there was already someone else staying in the nicer house we booked, and we could stay in this (much less comfortable house) for the same price. We arrived with public transport and had no other option than to accept. After asking for a reduction in the price, the lady told us that the AC would be already the bonus. Later we discovered the remote of the AC was missing and when contacting the landlady she wrote: „Oh no, too bad, sorry“. Side note: This check in was the first time we felt unwelcome in costa rica.
Most upsettingly, after trying to negotiate with the landlady of the replacement accommodation, the landlady of the originally booked accommodation joined our conversation, and was openly unfriendly towards us, boardering on aggression, frequently asking why we had a problem and making us feel intimidated.
Secondly, we barely slept during the night. It‘s hard to say if this was because of the heat making us feeling like we were in an oven, the neighbours listening to Britney Spears and talking very loudly or the coming and going of super loud motorbikes pretty much the whole night. The walls were so thin that when the neighbours came home, I thought multiple times that they entered our flat instead, scaring us, as this place is a slightly doggy part of Puerto Jimenez.
- Delvin (10/5): Perfect place in Jiminez - Perfect place to stay before getting on the ferry. Exceptionally clean and a very well equipped kitchen.
