Good location, right in town.
naling, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very simple hotel. We were hardly in the room. Rooms were fine, fridge, good AC. Service was very good. In fact we left our passports in the safe and the staff helped make a special trip to San Jose to bring our passports last minute. That was amazing, We definitely recommend looking for an economical yet comfortable stay.

8/10 Very good

Everybody working there was very nice. The breakfast is great. The courtyard is also nice and quiet and lush. They have good deals with a lot of the tours. The neighbourhood is quiet since it’s away from the main street. The rooms are spacious and clean.

I liked the vibe of the place, the rooms are spacious, clean with nice view of the Volcan Arenal. The breakfast was amazing, home cooked Costa Rican breakfast. Location was very central to La Fortuna town, and overall great value for money.

Great price and impressive service

We were impressed with the how clean and how extremely helpful and nice the entire staff was. Breakfast was more than hopped for. Room was basic but clean and AC worked nicely.
