Was just far enough south of Limon to be convenient and yet secluded. Nice room and pool and also right on the beach. Food was good and entire staff was wonderfull. Would definitely recomend. Only drawback will only affect drone pilots who want airborn videos and pictures. Too close to airport for my DJI mini pro3. Restricted, it would not even launch.

We loved the old world charm of the hotel. The beds were comfortable. The colourful tile in the bathroom and kitchen is very Costa Rican. The staff were excellent! So kind and attentive. We had two dinners and two breakfasts and enjoyed them all. The mature plants and palms on the property were incredible and the pool was large and clean. No complaints at all. Wish we could have stayed longer.

The staff was great and friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. The food was not very good. But the beach was beautiful! Right on the beach. Near the Limon airport.

This was an excellent hotel to stay at. We enjoyed the room and easy access to the beach. Breakfast was included and was fantastic each morning. Staff were very friendly and always available to assist. We loved spending time with the live in pup while we were there. Will be back soon!

Flor and Raoul were the best!
Fruits for breakfast would have been great.
Coffee was weak.
Near oceanfront. Grounds well kept.
Transportation always needed to go into nearby town.

Relaxing Stay
Nice place with great staff. Was glad to be a bit out of Limon with a great home base for sight seeing. Enjoyed the peacefulness and had a good stay. We also enjoyed easy fresh cooked dinners at the end of the day.

Property is ok - it looks nice but it is a bit dated. The area around the property is not great - so this property becomes a stand alone destination. The grounds are nice and so is the pool. It is certainly a solid mid range hotel

I DON'T USUALLY LEAVE REVIEWS BUT SINCE THE HOTEL DID NOT HAVE ANY YET THOUGHT I WOULD GET THEM STARTED. WESTFALIA IS A HIDDEN GEM. GREAT PIECE OF PROPERTY JUST OUTSIDE OF TOWN. RESTAURANT SERVES GREAT FOOD AND ALSO BEER AND COCKTAILS. ROOMS ARE VERY CLEAN, BED COMFORTABLE AND WATER HOT. NICE SITTING AREA OUTSIDE OF THE ROOM. WISH I COULD HAVE STAYED LONGER! SR
