Perfect stay at Casa Zeb
Great place to stay! Staff was very kind and helpful! Always clean! Half of the bed springs on the bed were broke/dead so that was uncomfortable. Breakfast was delicious and included! Everything else was amazing!

You won’t be disappointed
I’m so glad I decided to stay at Casa Zen. The proximity to the beach is what sold me on this property, and the stretch of beach is amazing. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The breakfast is just enough to get you going but the communal kitchen helps save cost of eating while on vacation. I loved the amazing experience I had at Casa Zen

On the first night, due to a downpour, we were left without electricity and water. The next day I left the site and they did not want to give me a refund for the day I had paid for, that is, I stayed for 1 day and had paid for two.

Skøn beliggenhed
Fantastisk beliggenhed. (Strand 50m væk) Rigtig fine toilet og bruse forhold. Køkkenet x2 indeholdt ikke så meget, manglede lidt af hvert. Ikke rene køleskabe. Gratis leje af håndklæde mod depositum. Yoga hver dag mod betaling, og ellers kan man bruge området til træning (KÆMPE PLUS) Min seng havde desværre bedbugs og der var en del kakerlakker på sovesalen (men det er der måske bare i området)

Worst customer service ever. The guy from the front desk was rude. You need to pay a cash deposit for towels and they have no soap. Bathrooms were dirty.

Für 52 Dollar bekommt man ein Zimmer -ohne WC und Dusche -ohne Handtücher -ohne Schrank im Zimmer dafür - muss man ein Pfand für Handtücher an der Rezeption hinterlegen unnd beekommt en mufffiges feuchtes Handtuch - Die Besetzung an der Rezeption könnte freundlicher und verständnisvoller sein

Desagradable experiencia.
Primero,la aplicación nos indica que el hotel está en Mal País, perdimos mucho tiempo buscándolo donde no era. Gacias un lugareño podíamos encontrarlo en Santa Teresa, llegamos y no habia nadie que nos atendiera. Cansados por el viaje debimos esperar a que llegara alguien. Debes servirte el desayuno, el cual no fue lo esperado de un hotel y luego debes lavar lo que usaste para comer. Sin contar del tipo en calzoncillos en los pasillos como su estuviera en su casa. No recomiendo este lugar.

Liked: Room comfort
Lugn atmosfär, bra läge
Det kändes fräscht, toaletterna helt ok men rummet rent. Alldeles för varmt i rummet, fläktarna som fanns hjälpte inte alls. Finns bra plats att sitta och äta och jobba med datorn, wifi fungerade sådär. Frukosten som ingår är en brödbit med lite frukt, inget man blir mätt på, mer som ett snack. Två kök man kan laga mat i vilket är bra så det inte blir trängsel. Väldigt lugn atmosfär.
