Hôtel correct mais qui demande des rénovations

Nous avons eu un bon accueil. L’hôtel est bien situé dans Puntarenas. Les chambres sont vieilles et désuètes, mais elles sont très propres. La piscine entièrement rénovée donne le goût de se baigner et l’eau était chaude. Si vous avez à faire un détour par Puntarenas, je recommande cet hôtel.

Desagradable estadia

Este hotel no ha recibido mantenimiento en anos. Televisores viejos y danados (volumen no puede controlarse), aire acondicionado antiguo y no podia apagarse del todo, bombillos de lamparas quemados, camas y almohadas muy incomodas. Wifi con senal debil la mayoria del tiempo

Cómodo en Precio

Las instalaciones estan un poco viejas y algo descuidadas en algunos sectores. La televisión de la habitación muy mal ubicada y el control remoto no servia adecuadamente. El área de piscina un poco anticuada. La limpieza de la habitación estaba aceptable. Muy bien ubicado frete a la playa. El hotel posee restaurante y en los alrededores existen muchos servicios de comidas. Balcón con vista al mar. El parqueo se encuentra a 150 metros del hotel.

This hotel is so run down it should be closed. Looked behind the scenes when leaving and it was literally a pigstall. The staff is very friendly and I feel sorry for them what they have to cope with. The owner should be ashamed of himself to let things go that far and just take the money and I can't believe expedia offers places like that. This is after we had a similar terrible experience the day before in another town. No more expedia for us.

Horrible

One needs to stay in a hotel like this, but as little as possible. This way you can know that when the hotel is not very good, it is never bad as this place. Beds Horrible, Windows didn't close so mosquito, no hot water, you name it, it was all bad. Except the AC Worked: Thank God.

Tenía que conocerlo

Conocí a su dueño muy amable y tenía que conocerlo uno de los iconos de la hotelería Puntarenas. Del hotel, posiblemente no volvería mucho ruido de la calle y tasa del sanitario no servía, no se cargaba bien el agua.

Hotel histórico con una excelente ubicación

El personal que atiende es muy atento y servicial. Es un hotel histórico, bien conservado, con habitaciones amplias, limpias y cómodas. La piscina aunque relativamente pequeña es muy cómoda y apta para nadar o simplemente refrescarse un rato. El único problema es que el restaurante tiene un menú chino-americano algo limitado, lo que es una lástima porque está ubicado en una terraza preciosa con una vista espectacular de la playa, sin embargo, existen excelentes restaurantes muy cerca, por lo que realmente es un problema menor.

Balcony with an ocean breeze!

The hotel staff was excellent! Very friendly, very polite, saw to all our needs. We were upgraded to a quieter part of the hotel per my request at no extra charge. Breakfast was very good! We really enjoyed staying at Tioga Hotel. We will come back again.

Nice hotel close to the beach

The staff was amazing! Could not feel more welcomed. Booked the hotel last minute and got there at night (yay free parking!) and woke up to being right on the beach with a delicious breakfast. Having a pool in the lobby on the beach is pretty cool.

La ubicación del hotel y el servicio al cliente son excelentes, la infraestructura es vieja pero se nota que le dan mantenimiento. La habitación es cómoda pero se filtra demasiado ruido externo que molesta al tratar de dormir. El desayuno es muy limitado (en opciones).
