A éviter Une ambiance de spring break raté : la musique très forte jusqu'à 10h du soir - sans qu il n'y est le moindre soupçon d'ambiance. Pour la chambre, 18 prises pour les collectionneurs, mais aucun reliée à une lampe à proximité du lit. Rien pour poser ses affaires. Franchement bof Et .

Hotel con los servicios básicos, muy austero, pero bien para el poco tiempo que normalmente se pasa en un viaje en la zona por la cantidad de excursiones y lugares a conocer

Cheap stay and friendly staff. Breakfast is hot dogs, fried or scrambled eggs, fruit, plantains, gallopinto (rice and beans mixed) for $7. Swim-up bar on site with plenty of hammocks and lounge chairs. Pool water is too cold to swim or lounge in however. They have a kitchenette with fridge in the common area for shared use. No toiletries provided except for towels in the room. The air conditioner unit in our room only functioned in ON or OFF modes and the other buttons to change settings didn’t appear to work at all so the room was either too humid and hot or freezing. The bed only has a single thin sheet on top which is not a blanket like one would hope. Two pillows and two mini pillows per bed. Staff keep the main areas very tidy and are helpful with planning tours or other questions about the area. This is located perfectly in the middle of La Fortuna action with a delicious smelling panaderia next door and tons of restaurants, shops, and other attractions within walking distance or minutes away by car. Plenty of street parking available. Comically large shower with good water pressure. Would stay again but would bring a blanket if it were feasible.
