Breakfast at 7 was a bit late if you have activities planned. Otherwise, tip top.

Exactly what we needed for a week diving Location is super central, parking safe, staff super friendly Swimming pool warm and clean, a cat as local mascot Yes, the hotel has seen better times. However, it is exactly what we needed. And they had some flexibility on the last day.

The location was pefect - short walk to the beach and beach side restaurants, and also a short walk to the main shopping/restaurant street, but with no associated noise from either. The staff were very helpful, the pool was lovely (and hardly used during our stay, except by us). We liked the low-key and 'quirky' nature of Toro Blanco, and were very happy with their focus on reducing waste, e.g. we liked that towels and linen were not changed daily, so unnecessary and wasteful.

Breakfast was a wonderful addition. We enjoyed the room and our patio area.

Beds are very hard. Taking plates from room to eat was kind of different.

Very cozy place. Conveniently located close to the ocean.

There was no power when we arrived (nothing the hotel could do about that but it was hot and no air conditioning) it would have been really nice to use the pool but it was too dirty to use. The water was cloudy and it had bugs floating in it. I did see someone vacuum the some of the bugs out of it the next morning but it was still cloudy and too dirty to use even after “cleaning”

The suite was well set up and comfortable with a nice balcony to sit at. The breakfast was good with a homemade feel. They had lots of beach / pool toys and mats to borrow if needed.

The pillows are so thin, I prefer a better and big ones! Also the electric staff was not working very well.

I love the art! Great energy!

Beds were not very comfortable. We had to ask a second time, late in the day, to get our room serviced with clean towels and sweep up the sand.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. It's just a block away from Coco Beach. It was nice to have an apartment with 2 bedrooms (only 1 bathroom though) when traveling with friends. Especially the big, comfortable veranda for shared time. We appreciated being able to use their laundry one night-just ask staff to help. It was a new concept for us to bring plates, etc. from our apartment kitchen, to get our breakfast, which was the usual fare, and plentiful. Very good air conditioners and Wi-fi. Everybody enjoyed the clean pool.

The music from the bar next door made going to bed early a bit difficult.

The hosts here are great! Short walk to the beach! Pool was clean and cool! Breakfast was very good. Never ending free coffee a plus! AC plus a floor fan makes for a comfortable sleep!

The mattresses were a tad on the hard side, but from previous experience that's the way it is in CR. We got used to it pretty quick.

Breakfast was great. Well prepared, buffet style, so there was always lots. Fruit was delicious, as was the coffee, which is always available. Amber's staff are so accommodating, and she herself was very helpful, and available. Our room was absolutely immaculate, and the pool and grounds were meticulously maintained daily. The outdoor patios are all equipped with a table and chairs, a lounge chair, and most have hammocks as well. And who doesn't appreciate a pool 15 feet from your doorway. The kitchenette was very handy, and there were a lot of extras to borrow, including beach equipment, books, and what have you.

When we arrived, someone was doing repairs on furniture using a staple gun right outside the room. It was a bit noisy. The streets near the hotel are fairly dark at night and we felt a touch unsafe. But it is very close to a very busy tourist street, and everything we needed was easily within walking distance. At breakfast, my husband was greeted by another guest who was complaining about his hangover to everyone who walked by, which was a bit unnerving for our children. But overall we had a very nice stay and would come back.

The room was spacious with a well-equipped kitchen. We had a full and two twin beds, off of a private feeling patio. The patio was lovely, with lights, a table, chairs. Breakfast was self-serve - bring the dishes from your room to a table, and carry it back to eat on the patio. It is about a block from the beach and a block from the busy shops and restaurants, which was great. The room was colorful with fun paintings, and the pool area was very central.

The shower stall drain always backed up into the shower

Very nice to have a healthy breakfast in the morning, always fresh and replenished often.

Close to the beach, there are other better beaches nearby but we had a car and enjoyed our stay here. The staff was very friendly, breakfast was nice to have everyday. The place is very pretty especially at night with the lights around the pool. It is within waling distance of some restaurants and bars.

No hot water, only tepid in the shower.

very quiet and good location for both the beach and central area. Nice, well maintained pool.

Our only complaint was the mattress. It had springs sticking out that hurt both our backs.

loved the quaint room and the location to the pool. Having pool and each toys for free was another benefit.

Have mugs and cutlery at the food serving place

Simple + good coffee

Stayed in March 2023

Hard pass on the breakfast, but if you need more rice and beans and a hard boiled egg in your life, it's fine. Coffee tasted like a weak Folgers. The good news is, there are two absolutely fantastic authentic coffee houses a block away! The touch-on/off bedside lamp, would flash on like a strobe light throughout the night, it must be getting an electrical "hit" from time to time making it flash on and off. Woke me several times.

I would definitely return. Really nice people. Charming basic room, great setup by the pool. Downtown and the beach are only a block away. Everything to walk to. At night, its a loud party town, and I couldn't hear anything in my room.

need new mattresses

if staying on one side of the building, it will be noisy from the Main Street bars. We were able to change to the opposite side which was quite.

The a/c worked well. We didn’t use the pool, but it looked inviting.

We were charged more than our booking but I didn't notice until we had left . We were tired and hot from the drive to Coco and I didn't think to check the price. We were not satisfied with the breakfast and went looking for something else the next day.

The pool was refreshing. The room was spacious and it is always nice to have a kitchenette. The bathroom was large . It was nice to have a balcony but the furniture was big and heavy and took up most of the space. The location is great . It is walking distance to the beach , shops, restaurants and many activities. The statues in bathing suits made me laugh. We met two other couples who were visiting and they were very friendly.

The refrigerator in my room and others rooms that I saw were tired as was the crockery / cutlery

Very relaxed - pool was great - location is excellent - staff were incredibly helpful
