Lorraine & Greg were largely, thoughtful hosts. However, we were pretty frustrated to learn on the day after our arrival that there was planned construction on the weekend--i.e. the next day. Despite reassurances that we would not be bothered, the sound is impossible to avoid and started at 9:30 on the weekend morning, continuing through at least until 6:30 in the evening. Had we been informed of this in advance, we would have chosen another location as the sound of drilling, sawing, hammering is less than appealing when trying to relax. Not only was the noise extremely disruptive, the additional presence of the workmen was a dissuasion to using the pool.
Otherwise, our only other concern was the ambient noise in the studio. Because the hosts' master bedroom is just the other side of the kitchen wall, the sounds of the tv can be heard in the studio. I admit to being sound sensitive, so these types of noises are annoying to me. We were able to download a white noise app, however, to minimize the intrusion of these sounds through the day/night, and this largely solved the problem. Other than sound complaints, Lorraine & Greg really think about their guests, providing all bathroom amenities, fresh Costa Rican coffee, even beers on arrival. Although we did not use them, there were bikes at our disposal, a lovely garden surrounding the pool and plenty of freebie options for local eateries introduced by them!
