Quiet and clean, walking distance to most things.

Clean and quiet, big room, older hotel but fairly well maintained. On the downside, hot water is solar, after dark no hot water, $5 per cup for morning coffee and only available Sat and Sun, “restaurant “ is very minimal in what and when they serve. No vending machines or ice machines. Nice beach is a very short walk.

Very basic hotel about 20 minute walk into town of Jaco. Comfortable bed, good air conditioning, large balcony, good shower. But only cold water tap in the sink (shower had hot water), no shampoo, conditioner, lotion, or hair dryer. No coffee maker. Very old style safe with a key for rent for $3 US per day, with caution that if you lose the key, could take 2-3 days to get someone to open it. We chose not to use it. Felt safe. Refrigerators could be rented but discouraged due to humidity and one was not readily available. No hand towels of washcloths, just 2 towels per person and not allowed to take them off the property. Description on Expedia said bicycle rentals available but I do not think so. Staff were pleasant and helpful. The hotel and restaurant are clean. Pool loungers are old but pool was nice with some shady areas. Seemed like a safe, quiet area.

Pochote had a bug invasion, big ants with wings pouring out of the roof. I have photographs of the German male manager taking photographs of the bugs. They lied to Orbitz and our credit card about negotiations, and refused to give us more than two nights refund. We stayed zero nights, but they would only offer another room and two night refund. Our credit card will dispute the charge.

Very unprofessional. Did not feel like a hotel. Mid day on a hot afternoon we asked the bar for some drinks he said the kitchen was closed as he stood behind the bar with all these drinks around him. He told us to go to town. We were one couple out of a few guests so maybe they didnt feel the need to please. Cleaning lady didnt change the sheets for few nights she just left the same stained sheets on the bed until we complained. Only good thing is that we stayed 2 days and not any more.
