Hotel Manuel Antonio Park

Totally disorganized and could not find our reservation. The rooms except for one building are totally dated, we had to move twice. And even the modern room we were moved into had toilet paper stuffed into a crack in the door. They only gave us one key. Coffee was terrible juices were not fresh squeezed.

The ceiling in our bedrooms was flaking and cracked with chipped/pieces missing and needs to be repaired Commentary breakfast was flavorless with small portions. we ordered an extra fruit plates that contained small portions of fruit on it 1 banana, a couple small pieces of pineapple, some watermelon and a couple pieces of papaya and which we said we would pay for but it was way over priced for what we got. Bathroom had one small window and very dim lighting their complementary toiletries were 3 very small bars of soap and toilet wouldn't always flush unless you stood there and held the handle down. Except for 1 staff member the rest of the staff was not overly engaging Check in was slow and it is the first time I have stayed some where that we had to personally return all our towels/face clothes, used and unused, and remote to the registration desk upon check out. Sheets were clean, beds comfortable, AC worked well. Beautiful pool area although the water did look questionable and I would not take children there in the late afternoon or evening. More of an adult environment It is very close to the beach and park, lots of wildlife visitors including monkeys. Beautiful flowers and foliage, Hotel was overpriced for what it is, there are much nicer and less expensive hotels in the area.

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.

I like the area where it was located, personnel was friendly too, pool very clean and parking was easy access but i did not like that I requested a double room and was given a single room.
