“Not worth the money!! Mold, old, dirty, very noisy”
Wouldn’t recommend. The container was moldy, dirty and very old. Kitchen was poorly equipped. They are currently hosting some workers in the containers instead of tourists. Those workers start making a lot of noice at 5:30am. When we asked them to not sit by the pool and talk loudly or listen to music and TikTok’s on full volume at 6am at the pool because it’s waking everyone up the called us (hijo de p*ta). So when you asked for silence you are being called very bad words. Told the management about it that didn’t care. Also when you pay in local currency they make up an exchange rate which is not the accurate one so you end up paying more. Plus those containers get extremely hot without AC you die

Floor was very dirty, lots of insects and dirt all over the floor in the whole place. There were small ants everywhere in the kitchen and bathroom. In the evening there were so many flies inside of the room even room was closed all day. Bed sheet and towels were clean but whole place felt dirty because all insects.

“Needs some cleaning and maintenance”
You can really see that you sleep in a container. Would be nice if they put up some information of how it was build. Maybe some pictures. There is a small pool with nice temperature water.

The host is very friendly and in general the room is comfortable to spend a few days. The pans are news, so we could cook simple things.

This is a super place to stay! The host and staff were so very kind and the studio just perfectly designed to feel like you were living in a small home-from-home. The internet was strong and stable: the bed posh-hotel grade and I slept like a dream. Really happy with my choice and I will definitely book here again.

We probably didn't have a luck of the room as the kitchen was full of ants. Morning there was watercut till 2 pm so we couldn't shower or splash The toilet. The girl from reception gave us some water on the bottle and apologize however they know about the problem of water cut that is happening often and also about the ants. So first renting the place I would solve the issues and have some cleaning and water tank sufficient for all rooms. The place is container close to the street and as the walls are not isolated you hear everything car passing or people only talking out.the Plece was as it is on the photos new furniture kitchen parking outside.

Looking for pure value for money? This is your spot! We spent 3 nights in one of the containers and were very satisfied. Comfy beds, proper wifi, a kitchenette for making coffee or a quick meal and a mini super around the corner. Thumbs up!

Everything was perfect. The concept is very original and sustainable. The rooms are repurposed shipping containers. They are all similar, with a double bed and another one above, like a bunk bed, plus a kitchen and bathroom. Everything is very clean and comfortable. The hosts are friendly, offering advice and helping to organize tours. The price is very reasonable, and it's just a 5-minute walk from a couple of restaurants and a supermarket. It's a great place to stay if you want to explore Uvita and the surrounding area.
