The location is ideal for a visit to the beaches or Manuel Antonio national park. The facility has some good points location, authentic vibe however it definitely needs some upgrades in the amenities (very scratchy towels, no blow dryer, old bath rug, screen for window in the bathroom, no chair or sitting area though the room had the space) the listing said there was laundry facilities however those were not for guest use, we had to leave it with staff to wash which though it was nice ended up costing us $30 for one load and we had to wait 24 hours.
