Rooms were spacious. Great location. The mixture was families and groups. The hammock on the front balcony was definitely a favorite. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. They offer good recommendations too. More

I have stayed here several times over the last 10 years.But it has deteriorated. The location is excellent , it is safe and surprisingly quiet for its situation. The standard room was run down and noisy and the restaurant was almost non existent. Perhaps the premium rooms are very much better? More

I have stayed at worse places, but it involved sleeping on a bumpy smelly bus through India. The bus didn't cost $75 per night and I think it smelled better. I booked the place because I read great reviews and it was featured in Frommer's. If this had been some cheap motel or hostel than I wouldn't have many complaints,... More

We took a 23 day road trip of the Costa Rican Pacific Coast. We really liked Frank’s place. We reserved an inexpensive, small room. It was clean, the water was hot, TV and AC included. From the street it’s almost unnoticeable. Inside the lobby are free computers and internet. Through the doors and you’re in the center where there is... More

I stayed for 18 days at Frank's Place on my first trip to Mal Pais and Costa Rica. The amenities more than met my needs and found the place very comfortable. They clean the room and outside area everyday. I was pleased to have a room refrigerator. The included breakfast (tico desayuno) was hardy, especially before or after a morning... More

Frank's is good value for the money as it has a pool and AC but it is so noisy due to the nightclub next door that it is only recommended for people who want to stay up all night and party. It is impossible to sleep before 4 AM when the club is open which seems to be about four... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here for 6 weeks and loved every minute of our stay. It was super clean, had air-con, hot showers, good plumbing and no bugs! The free breakfast is delicious and big! Everyone is super nice and helpful. I strongly recommend it here! More

I stayed in 3 different hotels in Santa Teresa before Frank's place, I wish I just stayed here the whole time. It is centrally located, comfortable, clean, safe and has a fantastic restaurant. On top of that, they have extremely reasonable rates and their staff is fantastic. Unfortunately my camera and passport were stolen while staying at another hotel in... More
