This was a transit place for us as we wanted to stop for the night before moving on to Quepos. Orlando, the owner, is a VERY nice man. He was waiting for us when we got off the fairy. This facility is literally 2 minutes from the ferry terminal, so the location is great if you are in transit (absolutely not for a long stay). This place is very small, but it was very clean and offered a great shower, and a confortable bed. It also provides air conditioning which is a must, and a small fridge.

Probably one of the best stays based on the price. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. You can even use the apps on the TV to connect to your streaming service account and the WiFi worked well. Didn't use the pool, but it also looked very well maintained. Location is ideal as well with free parking available in a closed area.
