I had a very good stay here. The breakfast could offer a bit more variety/choice, but everything that was served was freshly prepared, which I really appreciated. Overall, a solid 8/10 experience!

“Quaint little place.”
The hotel's was lovely and rustic with plants everywhere and a lush garden. Two agouti would visit and play together on the grass which was cute to watch. Lovely mountain views just outside, spacious rooms and large beds. Tasty breakfast, and the hotel was very reasonably priced for what was included. Helpful staff, the receptionist put our wet trainers behind the dryer to help them dry as they had soaked during a waterfall excursion which was extremely helpful as we needed them for the next excursion the following day. Would definitely stay again.

“Not as comfortable as we had hoped.”
The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was good and we were within walking distance of the town. Sabor Tico was the nearest restaurant and was very good.
