Axel's take: 7.2/10
A practical Quepos base with a pleasant rooftop pool, but uneven upkeep. A simple budget hotel in Quepos with a rooftop pool, scored for what it is.
Le Priss is a simple budget hotel in Quepos, not a polished three-star retreat. We'd consider it for a short, practical stay: supermarkets, restaurants and buses to Manuel Antonio are nearby, and the rooftop pool is its standout extra. Recent Tripadvisor and Booking.com guests often praise clean rooms, comfortable beds and air-conditioning; helpful staff also earn repeated mentions on Expedia.
The trade-offs are patchy Wi-Fi, basic decor and inconsistent maintenance. Recent feedback ranges from very clean, comfortable stays to complaints about worn facilities, noise and malfunctioning room equipment, so expectations should stay modest. There's no elevator, and the pool requires climbing stairs. Some rooms are across the street from the main building. We'd skip it for reliable remote working, step-free pool access or a beach-focused stay.
