This place was terrible, especially since we stayed in great places elsewhere in the country. The beds were ancient, the sheets had holes, the towels were so old that at home I would have used them as rags, and the breakfast was extremely mediocre. The hotel is also in a part of town where it's a long walk to anything... More

Our last night in costa rica was spent at this place due to our travel guide listing it as a mid-range hotel. We just wanted something clean and decent and near the airport and rental car deposit end of town, we weren´t asking for anything palatial! We arrived in the pouring rain, laden with backpacks and they took about 20... More

Olaf runs a wonderful hotel. He was gracious and helpful in every way. My husband and I stayed here our first night in Costa Rica and our last night. Olaf arranged our pick-up from the airport and we were met at baggage claim by a driver holding a sign with our names on it. This made arriving in Costa Rica... More

Great, I thought, but the room was visually dirty. The walls looked like they had been used for a basketball game. It had been... More

There was no window or screen in the bathroom window,so the wind blowing in made the room... More

We stayed one night at the Ritmo del Caribe in San Jose and were pleasantly suprised by how nice it was. We were impressed by the staff's friendliness and promptness to our arrival. Our standard room with two beds was very nice. Our room was quiet and the beds really soft and comfortable. We had drinks and appetizers at the... More
