La Cresta Inn

Good Option

I picked this place b/c of Free: -WiFi -Airport shuttle -Breakfast Great breakfast! Varied and sufficient! Good location, yes with free WiFi & Shuttle. However, my flight was delayed in NY & did not arrive till several hours late. I contacted the hotel through a cab driver who did hustle me a bit to make the call. Kind of my fault for not knowing the language, but I did make contact. No one at the hotel staff it seemed spoke english, which made things a little difficult. Anyways after insisting on the shuttle, it finally arrived a good hour or so later and was a bit disjointed. The place was clean quiet and comfortable & stay was fine. The shuttle however only left the next day, I believe at three different times which made me have to cut my visit short without much any time to explore the area or have to pay for a cab, which I think was appx. $30 one way. I did discover that the Crown Plaza, was just done the road and around the corner a bit. If I had to do it again & the rates were about the same ( I believe $40 for LaCresta & $60 for the Crown?) it would be an easy decision & I actually would have enjoyed my 20 hour Copa flight delay.

No (or limited) English speaking staff More availability of shuttle runs
