"I was very satisfied with the home I stayed at during my visit to Costa Rica. It was located in an area that was both residential and commercial. It was within walking distance to several restaurants and stores. The hosts were very polite, the home was clean, and the room was clean and modern. If you’re looking for a resort style environment this is not for you, but this is perfect as a place to sleep and as a jumping off point for day trips. "
