Great location, rooms are clean. The hotel shows a little of it's age, but I thought it was charming. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had a really early flight the next morning, and our host scheduled a taxi and was up at 4am to pay for our ride to the airport. This is a great option if... more

After reading all the reviews on TripAdvisor, I eagerly booked Hotel Mi Tierra for our last night in Costa Rica thinking we would get a great hotel at a great bargain. After staying there, I felt very disappointed and wondered if I was at a completely different hotel than the earlier reviewers. It was definitely a good deal. $40 including... more

While reading the previous reviews I started to wonder if I was looking at the wrong hotel. I can't understand it, but the hotel certainly doesn't deserve all the great comments. Yes, it is a budget hotel and there is an element of you get what you pay for, but having travelled in budget hotels in much of Europe, Thailand,... more

The staff here was very friendly and accommodating. The common areas were set up very nicely for guests to hang out and relax. The place has all of the basics in the common areas: internet, pool, tv with dvd player and a nice sound system. My room, on the other hand, was more like what I would expect at a... more

I was very dissatisfied with my recent stay at Hotel Mi Tierra. Upon arriving, I was told that they had no record of my reservation, even though I had actually spoken with someone at the hotel 10 days earlier regarding my room reservation. This was not a huge issue, as they still had rooms available, but did suggest a lack... more

When I find myself in the San Jose/Alajuela area again, I will be sure to book my stay at this hotel. I stayed here with my boyfriend two nights in early March 2009: the first was reserved a week in advance (you can make reservations through their website at http://www.hotelmitierra.net/). It was $40USD (they take USD) for a single room... more

We stayed at Mi Tierra for our first night in CR, then again four days later before making our way to a different part of the country. This is not the place to stay if you are looking for 'frills'. It's simple, but has everything we needed and wanted, for a very good price. The rooms are small, a bed,... more

Roberto and Yvonnia made us feel like we were part of the family. Any questions we had they went out of their way to answer for us. Mapped out a good route for us to take to Arenal, and gave us an example of what "Tico" hospitality is all about. A great way to leave the 'western culture' behind, and... more

We stayed at Hotel Mi Tierra the night before we flew back to USA. We had received many recommendations for this place, and it did not disappoint. The owners were so very very helpful and charming. They truly live the pura vida and are the most kind people we met on our entire trip. They offered us advice on where... more
