understand that the name has been changed to FatDaddy's the only complaint I could have of it is the lack of shampoo and the hotel size soap easily fixable by spending a couple of dollars at the store across the street

Beautiful property with wonderfully friendly staff and refreshing pool. The cocktails were fresh and delicious. The location is conveniently close to the public beach however it is on a busy street that has traffic roaring by until late hours and beginning before 6 am. There was also loud music until the wee hours making sleep minimal. We still had a wonderful time!

Great place, great owner and staff. Close to the beach (just a block) and the couple of restaurants that are in town. I like this place better than the high priced hotel right next door.

The room has all that you need, the bed and the bathroom were very clean and with all the facilities. The pool is perfect and the restaurant is delicious, although is close in the morning and noon. The only thing that I ask for it the next time, will be a key for the garage, to arrive and go out in any time.

This was a great location. We had lots of spiders and mosquitos in our room. The floor was dirty and the comforter had dirt on it. There was a glass window missing in the bathroom (therefore the mosquitos could come in as they pleased). Overall it was a good stay just could’ve been more clean.

Buenas habitaciones, aspectos a mejorar

La relación calidad-precio es buena. Las habitaciones son confortables y amplias, con Wi-Fi, buen mobiliario, entre los que hay un armario y una cajonera, tv con cable, el baño también es amplio, hay secador de pelo. Estaría bueno, como no hay desayuno, que incluyera heladera. Un dato es que enfrente hay un supermercado y una panadería (en un primer piso) de una francesa que hace cosas ricas. En general, estuvimos conformes, pero tuvimos algunos inconvenientes o situaciones extrañas. Las cabinas parecen ser un espacio complementario a un restaurante que sería la actividad principal del lugar. No hay recepción, por lo que cuando el restaurante está cerrado, no hay nadie encargado de la recepción y queda poco claro con quien tratar o dónde ubicarlo. Por ejemplo, al llegar no hubo mucha información acerca del hotel, sus horarios u otras reglas (que tampoco estaban en la habitación). La primera noche al retornar de un bar, alrededor de las once de la noche, el lugar estaba todo cerrado y oscuro. Tras varios minutos de estar llamando, golpeando, nos ingeniamos para entrar.

Nice hotel only steps from the beach.

very close to beach and local restaurants. The Numu restaurant has the best sushi in Costa Rica and lots of other good things on the menu. The room is small and nice, but there is no maid service. Also the rooms back up to the road, so noise is an issue.

Our stay was wonderful. Beach was a short walk from hotel,many restaurant choices within walking distance. And most places let us bring our dog. We'll be back! Prices reasonable, great service and cool pool.

Numu needs to pay attention to cleaning

Hotel is very nicely located, 2 mins from the beach. Food in the restaurant is very good... but but there is a big BUT.. We stayed for 6 nights. Room was NOT cleaned once, we had to ask for clean towels if wee needed them. Since we are in tropic, all toilet paper etc. is thrown in garbage can, they did not empty our garbage at all, we had to ask for that. There were a lot of people working, but no one seemed to be interested in housekeeping or cleaning. Shower was barely working, the shower head was so clogged with calcium build up that they really need to clean those. Bed is very nice and that was clean and good air-condition is a plus. Pool was also not cleaned, there were big bird poops around the pool and no one cleaned those while we stayed in the hotel. Potrero itself is wonderful place, nice people and beautiful clean beaches.

Well priced hotel a stones throw away from beach

The cabaña was huge. Very comfortable seating to lounge in. 2 large bathrooms with big showers in them. The beds were comfy, the open plan kitchen was nice to cook in while chatting to others sitting at the lovely big wooden dining table. The hotel had a lovely warm pool to swim in and provided a covered seating area to hide from the harsh sun. The restaurant was outstanding, not overly expensive, but food that takes your tastebuds to heaven and back. The hotel was a stones throw away from the sandy beach, a small but well-equipped supermarket handily placed across the road. The area was quiet and laid back.

The service at Numu was GREAT (Just ask for Gus and he will make sure your stay is a good one - whether making you breakfast, drinks, or anything else!). We arrived early and there was no problem with getting into our place early; cleaning staff hadn't been there yet, but they let us drop everything off and we headed to the beach. Beach is a short walk across the street and its beautiful. Not a busy beach; but that makes it really nice. It is also just a short walk to Playa Flamingo; another awesome beach, with more great restaurants and shops.

Happy stay in Potrero!

The 2 bedroom apartment was very spacious, air conditioners were good, bed was comfy, but the best part was the staff. Gustavo was awesome, kind and helpful. The restaurant has a great menu and staff was happy to accommodate our special requests.

Excelente comida y mucho por mejorar en hospedaje

Numu tiene un restaurante realmente muy bueno. El condominio no tiene el aspecto de algo que esté completamente listo para renta. Las puertas no cerraban, no tiene cortinas y la entrada está exactamente en el área de basureros del restaurante. No tiene privacidad en absoluto. La cochera del condominio es la bodega de suministros del restaurante. La ropa de cama es pésima. Se encuentra a 200 metros de Playa Potrero y muy cerca de las mejores playas de Costa Rica lo que le da una ubicación estratégica.

Over booked hotel and my daughter and I had to go search for another hotel on a holiday weekend, which ended up costing me another 120 dollars.

Family vacations..!

This is nice place, with a very good localization, just a few steps away from Playa Potrero. The restaurant is good, and swimming pool is good enough, specially for our kids. Two points to take care of: is a safe place, but with low privacy, since rooms and swimming place are just near to main street. Also, we toke the apartment, including a kitchen, but there were no dishes, spoon, glasses or other cooking needs. Nevertheless, it is a good place based on localization and cost. Staff is friendly.

Petit hôtel à ne pas recommander

Nul et mauvais!!!! Déjà les draps étaient d'une propreté douteuse, le ménage ni le lit n'ont été fait entre les deux nuitées. Très bruyant (musique au bar) Le must reste le patron qui voulait nous faire payer plus cher que le prix sur hôtel.com Comme nous avons refusé (pas aimable du tout de sa part) il nous a refusé le petit déjeuner du lendemain matin Vraiment pas une adresse à retenir Je ne suis pas difficile mais là c'était trop! Je le déconseille vivement
