The room was simple and clean. Two couples shared this room after a day of travel from Toronto, Canada to Liberia's airport. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals at the restaurant in the evening. The pool was lovely to go for a quick dip in the morning before we headed out to explore the La Fortuna area.

We booked this hotel for our first night in Costa as be didn’t want to drive three hours after a long flight. It’s about 30 minutes from the airport. It exceeded our expectations. We had a quiet room at the back which came with a double and single bed and a large shower. Though the hotel may feel a little dated it was spotlessly clean and check in was straightforward. The restaurant offered a lovely menu (burgers and chicken tenders for us with fries for us). Breakfast was a simple buffet but perfect for us - cereal, yoghurt and fruit, eggs (cooked to order) and toast. All the staff we met were lovely and friendly and common thing we found during our whole trip. Can not recommend this hotel highly enough for a stop over near the airport.

The restaurant food was good. The room for the price was ok. We stayed one night before catching a plane to Vancouver. They arranged a taxi for 5:30 am which was really helpful. On the downside, we had a lot of ants in the room and there was no hot water (even after asking them to check on it) so we had cold water showers and I had to shave using cold water.

We stayed here two nights. The hotel is located just off hwy 1 and a couple of km from the center of Liberia. The hotel is spread out all on ground level. Beautiful gardens and very very clean. The rooms are also very clean but basic. Do not expect extra furnishings. The bed was comfortable and the AC worked well. We enjoyed the pool both mornings, very refreshing. You can ask for pool towels at the reception. Breakfast was simple, typical CR style. A nice simple accommodation

Room Tip: Ask for a room in the back rows away from the hwy. You won’t hear the traffic.

The room was well-aged, the built-in furniture was low quality, but otherwise the amenities (bed, A/C, bathroom) were decent ...especially for the price. Good restaurant, friendly staff, nice pool area. Worth it.

I picked this hotel because it was good value in Liberia with a pool. Hilton was 3 x the price and would not have been worth it. I needed to come to Liberia to fix a dead phone from the jungle humidity. It ended up being a great visit and I fitted in La Leona waterfalls and the Indian Masala in town and found out Uber was working. The staff at this hotel were very accommodating at check in when there was a problem with my booking. And at the end of the day the real judge of a place is how they deal with a problem, not when everything runs smoothly. Room was clean and comfy with good aircon and a ceiling fan. Nice big shower and hot water. Pool was excellent, big enough to swim some lengths and I had it to myself. One more thing to note is the food in the restaurant in the evening was pretty good too. Would thoroughly recommend, and would 100% stay here again of I came to Liberia again

We stayed for 1 night and it has everything we needed. Good shower, spacious rooms and breakfast. Quiet spot despite the proximity to the main road. Staff were nice. Breakfast was simple but tasty. Nice pool too! We also had parking included.

I recently stayed at Las Espuelas in Liberia and have a mixed reaction. The pool is superb, huge and clean and ideal for swimming laps. There's a mango tree right next to the pool and many fresh dropped fruits. In the morning, the hotel puts out an excellent breakfast spread that includes traditional fare if desired. While the rooms are perfectly satisfactory and have functional air conditioning, the TV are wretched. I stayed in two different rooms and in both cases the picture was poor and the remote control non-functional. In general, the staff is a mixed bag, with some young guys being helpful and others just kind of willfully vague and unfriendly. That needs to change. The location is not good as it's a haul into Liberia proper. In summary, a hotel with vast potential that needs some upgrades.

Thankfully I only stayed here one night as I was flying out the next day. It's a bit far from the airport but all I could find. It's an older, some what faded hotel that looks like it could use an upgrade. Rooms are beat up and so-so. Its ok for a one nighter but dont make it your holiday destination.

We stayed here for one night having arrived on a long flight from London via Houston. We picked up our car and 30 minutes later we were all checked into the Las Espuelas hotel. Simple rooms but clean and we enjoyed our first Costa Rica breakfast of rice and pinto beans with eggs. On finding our car had a flat tyre the staff were super helpful and we were soon on our way on our road trip.
