This is a very good budget option and I have stayed three times over ten years. Staff are friendly and helpful and property is quite decent and very close to town.

The female manager was not nice or helpful but the male receptionist was really nice and even went out of his way late at night to let us know our car lights were still on. It would have been awful to wake up to a dead car battery. The hotel itself was quieter than I expected being right on the main street of Puerto Viejo but we had a room in the back area. They do not provide breakfast. It's in a good location.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
"I had reserved two rooms, but unfortunately, both of them had a bad smell. Although the staff tried to address the issue with freshener, it only worked temporarily and the smell returned in the evening, making it difficult to sleep. In addition, there was loud music coming from neighboring properties, which added to the unpleasant experience. As a result, I would not recommend this place and would not consider returning.
We were at Lizard King during some rainy days and loved the balcony/2nd floor lounge areas. My husband was able to open his laptop - and work in a very comfortable area.
Nice location just on the edge of the village, totally walkable to the center of town in 5-10 minutes. Lovely pool and wonderful upstairs open air lounge to hang out in. Only downfall was street noise that affected sitting pool side.
The room was spacious and clean. The air conditioner work very well. The pool was clean and wonderful. The breakfast that was included was delicious and filled us up. We would stay here again.
Staff were very nice but hotel was noisy both from the road and other guests. Only a cold water tap in the hand basin in the bathroom and the shower was very poor - cold/Luke warm water and very poor water pressure.
Missed our shuttle connection from the airport so had to delay arrival by one day. Was able to email the Lizardking and they were ready for us when we arrived. Pool was nice, breakfast was good. All of the staff were pleasant and helpful. Close to plenty of places to eat, had fridge in room with a grocery store within walking distance. The beach was across the street. Very narrow beachfront but very busy on weekend. Any questions or issues we had were readily taken care of. They made it easy to arrange tours to see things in the area. They rented bikes, if you are interested. A very nice, rustic room with good water pressure in the shower. We were very happy with our stay.
Great location, accessible to beach and center of town with in a stone throw. Staff exceptionally helpful and friendly. The hotel in general very clean.
Staff was exceptional in every way, breakfast was delicious, and room was super clean (so was the property and pool) and left nothing to be desired. I now know why it was recommended by friends for our stay. Loved it!
