Best Western Hotel & Casino Kamuk

We stayed here a few times as we were searching for a short-term rental. The first time we stayed on the 2nd floor and it was facing the side street. The room was small, a little dated and very loud from the street traffic. The next time we stayed on the top floor and the room was spacious, more updated, had a great view of the ocean, and was much quieter. The free breakfast was tasty, the bar is good and has a nice happy hour. The Casino is not worth stopping at and smelled of smoke. But, people are nice, pool is refreshing, rooms are clean. less

We went to the restaurant on top of the casino. It’s part of the hotel and casino. It is really nice has great food. The view is fantastic and the scale is quite nice. May need to use your this Spanish to ask questions other than off the menu, but that’s just part of the adventure. I lovely place and I highly recommend less

Hotel was neat and clean as well as our room. Support staff was friendly and helpful. Restaurant food was very good and reasonably priced. Happy Hour everyday from 4 to 6. Wait staff were very friendly and attentive. A special Thank You to Leo at the Restaurant who was very knowledgeable about the area and helped to decide on things to do when we were not fishing. less

If you are heading to the Marina, this is a great location right across the street from the beach. At dusk, there are tons of birds making a beautiful noise. After this, the street bums come out and they often chat it up until after 6 am. You get to hear all of this along with some street parties and loud music. The front desk staff is not the most friendly team of individuals. The rooms are small but acceptable. The patio outside many rooms offers a view of neglect. The bathrooms have a terrible odor. The shower is large enough for three people. Breakfast offers pancakes or eggs and a small continental offering with pink yogurt. The beds are ok. Don't expect amenities, but the location is great. There are many local restaurants and pubs nearby. You must pay $10.00 to rent a safe and if you lose the key, you pay $75.00 more. less

Staff are unhelpful, breakfast buffet is limited but they offer two choices of hot breakfast. 1. Pancakes with eggs and sausage 2. Costa Rican breakfast of beans and rice with an egg. Both of these options are delicious. The big let down of this hotel is the rooms and noise. It is attached to a Casino and I suppose that attracts the crowds, except lots of noise if you are on the second level. Our room smelt like mildew and the shower temperature keeps fluctuating. We booked a standard room for a couple but they gave us a room with two singles. We asked to move rooms and we wanted to pay for an upgrade but they said the couldn’t although they did offer to join our singles together. We kindly accepted this offer but they didn’t end up doing it and when we asked why the reception staff said they just couldn’t do it! I highly recommend staying in Manual Antonio which is 7 Km up the road, much better value for money that side. less
