Although the room appeared to be clean, they used bleach on the floor. We left the door open for over an hour to get rid of the strong smell that made it impossible to breathe. They offered to rebook us up to two hours after we tried to contact them. The place is not as shown in the photos; it requires a lot of maintenance. The linens smell musty, and it's not completely private; it's a hotel with many more people. We wouldn't go back to the place

Aunque parecía que la habitación estaba limpia utilizaron cloro para el pis. Tuvimos la puerta abierta más de una hora para que se fuera el olor tan fuerte que no dejaba respirar. Ofrecieron cambiarnos hasta dos horas después de intentar comunicarnos. El lugar no es como en las fotos, ocupa mucho mantenimiento. Los paños con olor a humedad y no es totalmente privado es un hotel con muchas más personas . No volveríamos al lugar

The accommodation is in the center, good location, the bad point is that the floor upstairs is made of wood, so you hear everything the people upstairs do, that's a bit annoying to rest. Everything else is excellent.

El alojamiento está en el centro, buena ubicación, el punto malo es de que el piso de arriba es de madera, así que se escucha todo lo que hacen los de arriba, eso molesto un poco para descansar. Todo lo demás excelente.

Good place but you can hear footsteps if you stay on the first floor which make sleeping complicated

The place is very clean, central, the photos are exactly the same as the ones of the place, good customer service

Muy limpio el lugar, centrico, las fotos son exactamente iguales a las del lugar, buena atención al cliente

Excellent accommodation, 100% recommended

As described. Great location.  Just a little noisy as it's wood construction

Tal cual se describe. Excelente ubicación.  Solo un poco ruidosa ya que es construcción de madera

Nos sentimos muy felices y deseamos que hayas disfrutado tu estadía , nuestra ubicación le facilita a nuestros huéspedes poder conocer todos los bellos lugares de la zona. Su comentario es muy importante para nosotros ya que siempre queremos mejorar y brindarle el mejor servicio a nuestros huéspedes. Esperamos puedan volver pronto!

I really liked the location, it is perfect, the surroundings of the pool are very slippery, be careful ! ;)

Hello Karolina, your comment is important to us, we love that you enjoyed your stay at our hotel, we hope you return soon.

We were very well received, the receptionists were very friendly. Perfect to stay one night and continue on the way to Bocas del Toro.

Nos recibieron muy bien, las recepcionistas muy amables. Perfecto para quedarse una noche y seguir camino a Bocas del Toro.

Cute place, definitely worth the price! Comfortable beds, clean, nice pool in the middle. Very friendly staff!

Thank you, Brittany! We aprecicate your coment. Your brother and you are nice people!  We hope to see you in the future :)

although we stayed a short time, the place pleased us. the attendant at our check in was very kind, the location is excellent! Only thing that displeased us was the noise from the room above, the soundproofing was zero. The people in the upstairs room arrived at 5 in the morning and only walking made a lot of noise. Everything else is great!

apesar de termos ficado pouco tempo, o espaço nos agradou. a atendente do nosso check in foi muito gentil, a localização é excelente! A única coisa que nos desagradou foi o barulho do quarto em cima, o isolamento acústico foi zero. As pessoas do quarto de cima chegaram as 5 da manhã e só de andar fazia muito barulho. De resto tudo ótimo!

They should update the photos to something MORE REAL  and less worked for a photographer or years ago ... plus super important if any services offered don't work to indicate it at the time of booking no at least a couple of hours of arriving...  for example the pool is one of the things I'm sure everyone will book for and so we did and we saw many other annoying customers because they were notified with a message less than a couple of hours away and it was not working leaving us with little or no time to look for another place to host us... something that despite the bad time we passed and mainly because we were traveling with my son and we saw many other annoying clients that the staff he took care of us was excellent ...

Deberían actualizar las fotos a algo MÁS REAL  y menos trabajado por fotógrafo o de años atrás … además súper importante si algún servicio ofrecido no funciona indicarlo en el momento de la reserva no al menos de un par de horas de llegar…  por ejemplo la piscina es una de las cosas por la que estoy segura que todos reservan y así lo hicimos nosotros y vimos muchos otros clientes molestos porque se les avisó con un mensaje a menos de un par de horas y no estaba funcionando dejándonos a los clientes con poco o nada tiempo de buscar otro lugar para hospedarnos … algo que a pesar del mal momento que pasamos y principalmente porque viajamos con mi hijo debo rescatar  que el personal que nos atendió fue excelente …

Very good area to stay, very nice facilities, downtown area, the service provided was excellent throughout the moment

Muy buena zona para alojarse, instalaciones muy lindas, zona céntrica, la atención brindada fue excelente en todo momento

Gracias por tan lindas palabras, ¡los esperamos siempre!

Thank you very much for welcoming us, really good location, there is motorcycle and bicycle rentals in front, the place is located on the main street! Very peaceful and breakfast included was a success

Muchas gracias por recibirnos, realmente muy buena ubicación, enfrente hay renta de motos y bicicletas, el lugar esta ubicado sobre la calle principal! Muy tranquilo y el desayuno incluido fue un exito

Gracias por quedarte con nosotros, esperamos verte nuevamente en el futuro.

Overall, the experience was very good. The location is fine, the beds comfortable, the breakfast could be better… Unfortunately they were repairing the room next door and the noise was constant during the day.

En general la experiencia fue muy buena. La ubicación bien, las camas cómodas, el desayuno podría ser mejor… Lamentablemente estaban reparando la habitación de al lado y el ruido fue constante durante el día.

Gracias por tu comentario, tomaremos en cuenta cada una de las cosas que escribiste.

Excelente lugar, muy bien pensado incluir el desayuno

Muchas gracias por quedarte en nuestro hotel!

We had such a wonderful stay from the location, hotel, pool and staff. Plus free breakfast! The rooms were clean and with all the amenities provided, I can’t express how wonderful the staff were and made us feel and all the great restaurant recommendations. I will be back!

Excellent service, comfortable rooms and very clean spaces

Excelente atención, habitaciones cómodas y espacios muy limpios

We had a great stay, all of the staff were very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was great. Yes you could hear some noise when in the room, but this did not bother us as we had read reviews and knew what to expect. Overall, a great place to stay in Puerto Viejo

Central, accessible location. Very friendly hosts and local team

Lugar céntrico, accesible. Anfitriones y equipo del lugar muy amables

Muchas gracias Juan Carlos, estamos remodelando habitaciones para solucionar este problema y poder brindarle a nuestros clientes el mejor servicio. Agradecemos mucho su visita y esperamos tenerlos con nosotros nuevamente!

Best hotel in puerto Viejo! Close to everything you need! Def will be staying again!

We appreciate the comment, it is a pleasure that you liked our hotel, thanks for your stay, you are always welcome!!

Incredible service. Very thin walls though. You can hear everything. The place is beautiful, clean and in a great location. Very smiling faces and awesome accommodations.

This place is just darling and I recommend the hotel itself quite a lot. However this room itself was tough. We could hear the upstairs neighbors partying (and all sorts of things) all night long. Was pretty tough. So just see if there’s a top floor room you could have instead would be my recommendation. Breakfast was simple but delicious.

Fue un placer tenerlo con nosotros , gracias por preferir el hotel Lizard King . Les esperamos pronto

They were very accommodating for my last minute booking. Clean and cool central spot to stay in Puerto! 👌🏼

Thank you for staying with us, we are glad that you had a great time. See you soon in Puerto Viejo!

Excellent location! Not right on the beach but across the street. Good all around. Some great extras make it stand out. The parking is in a fenced area with hotel entry in the lot so it’s quite safe. Outdoor hose to wash off and bathroom. Front desk was very helpful. The only potential negative is the upstairs guest could be heard walking around on the wooden floor. Really only a problem if they are late night partiers but you could complain in that case.

Small but friendly place in an excellent location

Lugar pequeño pero amigable y en excelente ubicación

The room we booked didn't meet our expectations because one thing is the photos in the app and something else the reality According to the photos, the room had a ceramic floor. When we arrived, the floor was made of wood, the step we gave in the room board that sounded the same when one was approaching the return beds that closed the floor, the second floor is the same at one time. We thought the lamp was going to fall off since the ones upstairs were walking, the pool compared to the divine photos but we didn't even want to get in. MISLEADING POST.

La habitación que nosotras reservamos no cumplió con nuestras expectativas, ya que una cosa son las fotos de la app y otra cosa la realidad Según las fotos la habitación contaba con piso de cerámica, cuando llegamos el piso estaba de madera, paso que dábamos en la habitación tabla que sonaba al igual cuando se acostaba uno en las camas vuelta que se daba rechinaba el piso, la segunda planta igual en un momento pensamos que la lámpara se iba a caer ya que los de arriba caminaban, la piscina en comparación con las fotos divina pero llegamos ni ganas de meterse daban. PUBLICACIÓN ENGAÑOSA.

Saludos, Carolina. Esperamos que estés bien.  Lamentamos mucho que la habitación en la que estuviste no haya cumplido tus expectativas. Siempre estamos dispuestos a recibir los comentarios de nuestros huéspedes para ofrecerles la mejor estadía que podamos.  De haber recibido tu comentario durante tu estadía, hubieramos hecho lo posible para mejorar la situación para vos.  Las fotografías son de referencia, por lo que la habitación rentada puede ser diferente de la que aparece en la fotografía, sin embargo, se le incluyen las mismas características (T.V, refrigerador, A/C, cama queen, baño privado...).  Aún así, entendemos que la habitación en la que vos te hospedaste tiene piso y techo de madera y el sonido no es cómodo para algunos de nuestros huéspedes. Hemos estado trabajando en remodelar nuestras habitaciones, y algunas ya están remodeladas, pero por motivos de la pandemia hemos tenido que poner estas labores en espera. Lo mismo sucede con la piscina. Tiene unas manchas de cemento al fondo que la hacen ver diferente a las fotografías, sin embargo, la piscina está limpia, pues programamos continuamente su limpieza y el testeo de sus aguas para asegurarnos que cumpla con los estándares adecuados de salubridad.  Esperamos poder solucionar estos problemas pronto, conforme recuperemos la normalidad. Saludos.

Not what I expected, very bad customer service. The breakfast is very low quality, with bad and bad tasting products. The photos are completely misleading, the place is dirty, full of garbage, the pool is not what it looks like!

No es lo que esperaba, muy mal servicio al cliente. El desayuno de muy baja calidad, con productos malos y de mal sabor. Las fotos son completamente engañosas, el lugar está sucio, lleno de basura, la piscina no es lo que parece!

Perfectly equipped rooms and in an exceptional place. Agile and fast communication. Very rich and varied breakfast. Very grateful and recommended.

Cuartos perfectamente equipados y en un lugar excepcional. Comunicación ágil y rápida. Desayuno muy rico y variado. Muy agradecidos y recomendado.

This is a cute place to stay with a delicious breakfast included and a wonderful staff who answers questions and made arrangements for me when I needed help. My room wasn’t quite as nice and polished as I expected but the location and staff made it worth the stay.

Greats place!  Quiet, clean and very comfortable.  Right in town, so there are plenty of restaurants and shops close by.  Also, great location for any excursions that you may be interested in participating in.  Would recommend this place to everyone!!

It was a pleasure for us to receive you, we hope to see you soon, thank you very much

I tried to change the day of the reservation in time through the Airbnb inbox and they didn't answer me, I called and they unwillingly told me that you could not and that the money was going to lose it, so thank you very much

Trate de cambiar el dia de la reservacion con tiempo mediante del inbox de airb&b y no me contestaron, llame y de mala gana me dijeron que no se podia y que el dinero lo iba a perder, asi que muchas gracias

Estimado Geovanny, Usted desafortunadamente no trató de cambiar la disponibilidad con tiempo, usted envió un mensaje a través de la bandeja de Airbnb el mismo día de su reservación en la mañana, por lo que era imposible cambiar la fecha (y hay que tomar en cuenta que su reservación era en los días de la temporada más alta del año, por lo que un cambio en ese momento se complica aún más). En el teléfono se le atendió cordialmente como se le atiende a todos nuestros huéspedes.  Saludos cordiales!

Place was good..staff was nice, the amenities were alright, however I did not stayed on the room I was shown for booking which was super disappointing cause I was looking forward to stay in that room and that lowered me down a bit

Mr. Ulloa,   Thank you for your honest input.  We value all our guest's opinions about our hotel and strive to use that to provide better service.  We're sorry to hear that you expected to get a different room.  Like in most hotels, it is not always possible to give the guest the exact same room used in pictures.  We're very happy to hear the staff and amenities were to your liking and hope to see you again on your next visit to Puerto Viejo.

Such an inviting space, they have the most outstanding service with the nicest people! The upstairs lounge had to be a huge bonus for downtime at night, with the service from the pool bar! The rooms are so cute and had great A/C! Felt just at home at the Lizard King. Can’t wait to come back:)

Outstanding! We had such a wonderful time staying at Lizard King for a little over a month. It really doesn’t get much better than this. Luxury in paradise! The hotel is located across the street from one of the most beautiful beaches I’ve ever been to, and it is right in the heart of Puerto Viejo, you can walk to everything, including along a gorgeous forest path to Cocles beach. The staff were all super friendly, extremely helpful and accommodating for everything we needed. Any time there was the slightest problem, it was addressed and resolved immediately. The rooms and common areas are immaculately clean and a pleasure to hang out in.  Can’t recommend this place enough. We hope to stay again many times in the years to come. Thanks guys!

Good price for a hotel that brings everything together in downtown Puerto Viejo, recommended

Buen precio para un hotel q reúne todo en el centro de Puerto Viejo, recomendado

We truly enjoyed our visit to the Lizard King. the rooms were clean and comfortable, the lounging spaces very chic and clean and the staff was great. 

Hi Tracey,  It is great to hear that. We are very glad you guys enjoyed your stay. We hope having you back some other time. You guys are more than welcome to The Lizard King and will be a pleasure having you with us again.

It was a good location.  Had some difficulties with getting the room we wanted.  The pool was good, but people couldn't solve the problem of needing the kitchen room, as requested.

Dear Doris, We are happy to hear that you liked our hotel and pool, but regarding the room it wasn't a mistake: yes, you did a reservation of 3 days in a Suite room with kitchen but then we received a cancellation for that room and a new reservation for 5 days in a Deluxe room with a/c and no kitchen. When you asked for a change of rooms, the last night of your stay, our front desk staff was more than available to help you and we tried to resolve the misunderstanding when you came with your reservation confirmation that, as we saw togheter, it stated that the room you booked was an a/c room. Nevertheless, because our hotel tries always to make our guests feel confortable, we offered you a free upgrade to a Suite room, free upgrade that you refused saying that you'll stay in the a/c room. We couldn't do more to help you at that point, since your reservation was alright. Regarding the extra fee you talk about, it wasn't a fee that our hotel applied and, as our staff tried to explain to you while trying to help you, we didn't receive that money. Like we told you in person here at the hotel, you need to discuss that fee directly with airbnb. Hope you can solve your fee issue with the appropriate help, kind regards, Lizard King team

We had a great time in Puerto Viejo, the accommodation has everything you need and more for a comfortable stay and close to all the restaurants and bars in the area. The place is clean and the pool is a plus

Pasamos unos días geniales en Puerto Viejo, el alojamiento tiene lo necesario y más para una estancia cómoda y cerca de todos los restaurantes y bares de la zona. El lugar es limpio y la alberca es un plus

It’s not someone’s home, but a nice little hotel. My room was super comfortable, clean and a beautiful style. The bed was really comfortable & I slept really well! It is a bit noisy, since you can even hear the naighbour rooms. The pool is really nice and the personal working in the hotel are friendly & helpful. The hotel is situated a little outside from the city center / bus stop. But I thought that was great, since it was a bit more calm&quiet. Plus the best fish restaurant in whole Viejo is just 2 houses away: Fish of the Day The only thing that the hotel lacks is a nice breakfast. All you get is Cornflakes and toast with Marmelade. But I can totally recommend it for a comfortable & peaceful stay in Puerto Viejo!
