Hotel El Tucan Alajuela

Hotel The hotel itself is very nice. However, it does say that breakfast is included, and please be aware that you have to make your own breakfast, which is fine.

Stay away at all costs Truthfully, you should just stay at the airport if you are using this for a quick overnight or literally anywhere else, this was a top worst experience and I stayed in some pretty interesting places over the years. First, you will receive only one towel if you’re booking for a party of five, but they will allow you to pay extra for more towels, which are more like dirty rags. There’s only cold water, so don’t anticipate taking a nice hot shower before turning into your bug infested bed. Oh, and also note that the whole place is flooding, the shower flooded into our room, reception was flooding, there’s holes in the ceilings and it’s not a quiet place at all. We were quite literally deadbolt, locked in the hotel, and unable to leave with no receptionist to be found for over 20 minutes, causing us to have to call a second Uber and quite a bit of stress as no one answered the doorbell, the phone calls or are pleased for someone to come let us out. Why would anyone deadbolt you inside a building? What a fire hazard. We all woke up, covered in bug bites, and the pillows are nearly nonexistent. They are so flat. There’s no redeeming quality about staying here.

no toilet paper They didn't have toilet paper... other than that it was acceptable

We had to book last minute so i decided to ignore the reviews and choose it for the price. The place could use some iimprovement. We did see a couple of tiny roaches in our room and had to take cold showers becaause there was no hot water. They did not provide the top sheet so we had to cover just with the little blankets wich i never like to do because i know they dont always wash those in the small hotels. Ok n the other hand the receptionist gave us excellent aervice and was very helpful and kind. Breakfast was simple, no meats and no eggs.
