Hotel Diversion Tropical

This hotel was incredibly disappointing and in disrepair. We don't know if it is because the owner is trying to sell it, or just hasn't been around to see its poor condition. The rooms are small, cramped and over priced. Furniture is worn and bed/pillows terribly uncomfortable. We only stayed one of our three reserved nights. We asked to cancel our reservation and receive a refund. We were denied. Nonetheless, we ended up staying elsewhere our last two nights. FYI, there are hotels nearby that are less expensive and much better cared for.

My husband and I stayed for 21 days at this 10 room gem. We loved how the owner Jodi, manager Yaz, and house keepers, attendants Erica and Cesia gave us superior service. The rooms are comfortable but basic and dorm-like in appearance. I was most interested in this economic spot that allowed us to spend one month traveling in Costa Rica. AC was cold, mini fridge and daily breakfast -, scrambled eggs, gallo pinto (rice and beans) bread and coffee , served from 8-9 am daily was held at the outdoor rancho pavilion that had a gas grill, stove top grill, microwave, sink and all pans and plates to cook and serve your own meals. How convenient! Many ticos had reunions here since other rooms (not our room 1) had bunk beds, full fridge, and a stove top gas grill w picnic table and hammock. Hotel is on a busy street, The great deal is 15 min walk to the right puts you at Brasilito beach. Continue the wslk on the beach past Camaron Dorado restaurant gives you a beach that rarely had more than a few people here. Yaz was so kind to retrieve and hand deliver my cell phone to me that I had foolishly left behind . She met me at our next hotel in Potrero Beach. Now that is above and beyond service! She also helped me get a refund on a tour we arranged that never picked us up! Jodi got me softer pillows and swiftly resolved a bathroom issue we had. The pool is missing some tiles, but very refreshing to return to each night. Thank you for a comfortable stay. Treated like family!

A welcoming place to stay with very friendly staff. A nice breakfast is included each morning, and there are nice outdoor common spaces with picnic tables and tables and chairs in the pool area. Short walk to nearby beaches and restaurants.
