Very mixed stay: immerse yourself in the colonial universe with its advantages and disadvantages…

Several negative points are to be noted for this establishment: - no real parking space (only one "space" on a hill where it is very difficult to maneuver) - bedroom: very little lighting, dark. Bats live in the roof just above the bedroom: nauseating smell of urine and bat excrement if you don't air out all day! (impossible ventilation at night, otherwise the bats enter the room, I let you imagine the smell…), very very limited level of hygiene - no curtains or shutters on the bedroom windows - obligation to pay cash at the end of the stay without being warned

I would choose accommodation again.

As a side effect of the convenient location, distant street noise was sometimes audible.

A place with great potential

I didn't like that there was a lot of damp smell (which I understand because there was too much rain...) and that there were Razo bats in the sky. More positives than negatives.

very good service but ashamed of hygiene (bats)

it is a beautiful house, but already very old. You will notice this not only in the decoration, but also in the construction. our room had cobwebs on the ceiling etc. There were also bats on the roof above our room. the smell lingered in the room and it was very unfortunate. this made us find it unhygienic but the rest of our stay was very enjoyable.

Everyone is very abandoned

Pool: dirty, could not be used Room: window without darkness wake up at dawn!! There were no hooks, there were no wipes for the face and hands, there was not enough glass for toothbrushes, it was very, very dirty under the bed. Neglected the whole structure. I asked questions before I went and they didn't answer any of them.

Good accommodation for everyone who loves nature and extraordinary

No sign, no bell (you could at least put a manual bell on the gate) so hard to find. The people we asked nearby couldn't tell us where the property was. Description of the location on booking.com: "A 120 mts del Hotel Mono Azul" which is on the main road is useless without directions. It is better to indicate that at the intersection, which is located near this hotel, you need to turn onto the road up the mountain "Hotel California Rd". Casa Hotel Mare Nostrvm is located about 100m further on the right hand side, about 50m after Villas Mymosa. The map on booking.com also shows the wrong location. Parking in the driveway leading down in front of the house (maximum 2 cars in a row) is quite problematic as it is easy to land at the gate. In addition, this road is very slippery and covered with moss during the rainy season. It is better to leave the car somewhere else. The lighting in the room was a bit dim.

B&B with character

In the driveway, it is easy to get into a regular city car. As the bus service (every 15 minutes) was very good and we just left the car there, it only affected us once. The lighting in the room is a bit poor - some LEDs would be great. We were the first guests after a long break in Corona so there was still some assembly to be done and a few renovations still to be done.

Feel at home abroad

We appreciated everything: the warm welcome of Carlos, his kindness, abundant and excellent breakfasts, just a charming place with a beautiful large, fresh and clean pool. Squirrel monkeys that visit us every day. Bus stop to Quepos and Manuel Antonio a minute walk. However, to appreciate this place, one should not strive for the level of comfort that comes with modernity. The charm of an experience associated with authenticity requires certain compromises to be made, which are largely outweighed by the beauty of the site and the discretion and kindness of the owners. We loved it!

Warm welcome, perfect location and tropical charm

Nothing at all, it was in line with our expectations. The hardest part would be to mention the equipment, which is a little outdated (especially the slightly noisy air conditioner), but that didn't bother us.
