Old and rundown
The property is very rundown, very old furniture and when sitting on mattress you almost went thru the bed. The linens were good, towels good but shower head sprayed all over bathroom. We had two nights booked and left after first night. Courtyard around pool has no space to sit. Great location to beach and main strip but other then that I would not go back until updated.

Great location, very nice people
My wife and I are used to all inclusive type resorts, and recently have not been very happy with the experience. If you want a true taste of Costa Rica this is where to stay for an exceptionally great deal and walking distance to downtown shops and restaurants. The rooms are modest, but exceptionally clean. This is the last time we're gonna stand in an all inclusive buffet line of mediocre food and employees that hate you. This is our first time to Costa Rica and won't be the last.

Amazing stay, I felt safe and comfortable the entire time. The staff was exceptional and friendly. The pool was well maintained and the beach was a short walk. Very close walking distance to food and shopping. I would definitely stay there again.
Old school charm, right near the heartbeat of Coco. One block to the beach, one block to the party. This is no American Hotel, this is pure costa rica. I loved it!

Very Friendly and Cozy Stay
While Playa del Coco is not our favourite beach, the Toro Blanco is a very pleasant and friendly little resort-style hotel with a great outdoor setting and pool.

Disliked: Cleanliness
There was garbage on the street at the entrance. Garbage at the base of the sign. Garbage seems to be a real issue here. The first impression was terrible as there is a kitchen in front of the pool that resembles a hostel but the room was nice and functional. The breakfast was ok but this is not a resort. The pool is also dirty and the layout is very tight. I think it is overpriced for the area. It’s also very loud, music until 2 am. Not a great vibe!
Conveniently located in the center of village steps to coco beach. Couldn’t ask more from a location standpoint. Friendly staff, easy to communicate and ready to help. Facilities are a bit old and needs an upgrade, faucet was broken and spilling water sideways. Other than that, we had a awesome stay at this place

A beautiful property in a perfect location.The staff was very helpful and breakfast included was great. We will plan on this location again for our next trip to Costa Rica.
