Upon arrival from a very long, 4 Hour Drive, I arrived at midnight to a huge party going on in the lobby/ballroom with such loud music that I could hear it all the way in my room until 1 AM. The bed was hard as a rock as well. I will never return

Julio was the absolute best! My husband and I went to Barcelo Tambor for our anniversary. We paid for 6 nights and stayed 4. The staff and people at the resort made it very clear that Americans weren’t welcome. We packed and left to find a hotel in San Jose and we decided on the Wyndham. Julio was there every step of the way and made us feel very welcome and we joked with him why we should’ve just stayed there the whole week! He gave us a local restaurant to try and it didn’t disappoint! We loved our stay here and the entire staff was very welcoming and helped with anything that we needed! I HIGHLY suggest staying here! And it is only a 10 min drive to the San Jose airport!!!

Our arrival was very welcoming and check in was quick and smooth. The pool area was nice and inviting. Our room was very tired, no hot water and I didn’t want to sit on the couch. It looked very dindgy. The bed was ok but No Hot Water at all. Bathroom Very old. This property needs a major renovation. Breakfast servers were great. Food was ok. Dinner was very good. We had the Italian restaurant. More great service. 👍. This trip served our purpose as we had to fly back home and was a quick drive to the airport. Thanks again. K & R

Very nice entrance and services, personnel was very nice. The rooms are old and need maintenance. For some hours the hotel ran oit fo water, we were not able to go to the bathroom or take a bath.

Never had this experience in the past in any hotel, hard to imagine I could live this experience in a Wyndham brand hotel.

It was my second time and I’ll go back every time that I leave Costa Rica. It’s always so nice to stay there right before I head back home to the states. Airport shuttle… Awesome. My flight was super early, before breakfast so they made me a little box breakfast to take with me. The Bell boy was awesome. Brought our luggage in the room and explained everything to us. This is the best hotel and it is super reasonable. Beautifully manicured, very clean, super nice staff. Definitely recommend.

We arrived after midnight due to a late flight and customs. The hotel was nice but our room in the back was run down and sparse with limited amenities. The room was at least three decades past an update. In the morning we had a lovely breakfast and the staff and service was great. Prices in the gift shop were not clearly marked and the clerk tried to sell me a small bottle of water for $6 US dollars.

We arrived late and booked a stay to spend the night. Very close to the airport, Rooms were clean and the staff quickly accommodated an extra bed free of cost for our Party of 6, bathroom was clean but it does need some maintenance.
Included breakfast was ok, I will not pay extra for that breakfast buffet. Our kids used the pool before checkout and it was really nice.
Since we arrived late there was no food available or room service therefore we walked outside to a nearby Mcdonalds.

This is a very old hotel, and the lack of an elevator is already a significant drawback. What makes it worse is how poorly this is handled by the staff. Despite arriving with two toddlers, a large stroller, and multiple pieces of luggage, we were assigned a room on the second floor with no assistance or consideration. That alone shows a clear lack of empathy and basic hospitality.
At a minimum, situations like this should be anticipated and accommodated—whether by prioritizing ground-floor rooms or offering proper help. Instead, the experience felt indifferent and poorly managed.
Overall, the combination of outdated facilities and the staff’s disregard for guest circumstances makes this place hard to recommend.

It looked like they built a fancy new front on a cheap hotel from the 70’s. The bathroom was gross, but not just like it wasn’t clean, like decades of wear and scale. They had no elevator to the room, and everything past the lobby was really dated. I was honestly shocked his was under a banner like Wyndham.

Check in was the slowest I have ever experienced. Check in at hotels should be quick and easy after a long travel day.. this was the exact opposite!
Paid for a king room and was given a room with 2 queen beds and when I showed my reservation was told it’s because they are full!? I reserved it.. why bother to offer room types if you don’t honour them?
The bed was the worst I have ever slept on. The springs were poking into our backs and the mattress was so worn out it was awful. It’s ok for a quick stay but I wouldn’t return for more than one night. The shuttle to the airport was nice perk so good for a night before or after a flight

The lobby was nice. The outdoor pool is cleaned would be amazing. There is not a Jacuzzi. But a kitty pool rather that may be slightly warmer than the actual pool. There is quite a bit of unfinished construction in the building. Horribly dirty floors. Our room was not ready for 2 1/2 hours after check-in. However, the front desk gave us a $60 credit to use at one of their restaurants which is actually pretty good. The beds are decent. They were unable to provide towels.
