Catarata Manantial de Agua Viva

Nice breakfast clean room

We stayed at this hotel at two occations. Our second stay was the most pleasent one, when we had a nicer room and there was a different receptionist, a woman who was sweet, smiling and informative. This hotel has two beautiful swimmingpools, make sure you see both before deciding on which you want to use, they have a beautiful breakfast area, tasty breakfast, pleasant and smiling staff in general, large rooms/apartments. The surrounding area is great and you can feel perfectly safe walking to shopping malls and restaurants (but in general it's better to take a taxi after dark). The largest shopping mall of Costa Rica is also within walking distance - if you're the kind of person who likes to walk a little further (let's say approx. 30 min). Be aware that they only provide transport to the airport. They don't pick you up there, no matter how nicely you ask ;-) The transport to the airport was excellent, though. Just remember to book it 24 hours ahead.
