Everything was great except the water pressure, but the staff offered to make arrangements for us to shower elsewhere which was above and beyond. Thanks.

The staff were incredible welcoming and kind. The hotel is located in the back of La fortuna, but extremely walkable. I enjoyed the quiet street! The breakfast was so yummy! Not to mention the view from my room! I had a direct view of the volcano :)

Amazing hotel!! There are beautiful views of the volcano from this hotel! The rooms are clean and very comfortable. Breakfast is great. Staff are extremely kind and helpful. We had a miscommunication with a tour pickup and staff helped us call the tour and figure things out. Staff truly went out of their way to make sure we had an amazing experience! 10/10 would stay again and again

From check-in to check-out and everything in between the staff was awesome. We stayed in Room 17, the room is a little on the small size with a double bed but we made it work. Room was clean and fresh. Breakfast is not buffet style, it is made to order. You have to place your order the night before. There are about 3 to 4 breakfast options.
I would definitely stay here again just in a larger room with a Queen or King bed.
