The place is clean, and very cozy it really feels like home. The host was amazing, always friendly and attentive. The location is very central, so everything is close by, and the airport shuttle service was a huge plus, super convenient. I would definitely recommend it and would stay here again without a doubt.

I travel a lot and spend a long time away from home, so cleanliness, comfort, and beauty around me are very important. I found all of this at La Tigra Mountain House. The beds are wide, the mattresses are comfortable. The hostess of the house is very attentive and caring. And I would like to highlight the view separately. It's fantastic!!! The Platanar and Porvenir volcanoes are visible as if in the palm of your hand. Sunrises, clouds running at eye level, and hovering birds attract and compel you to stop and enjoy life. In the morning, I tried to exercise, but it smoothly transitioned into meditation... As they say, it's better to see once than hear a hundred times!! Come and see for yourself. I recommend it...

I felt so welcome at Casa Granitas! From the accommodations to the free shuttle (to and from the airport) to the recommendations I received from my hosts. It’s also located in a beautiful, quiet neighbourhood not far from the airport.

Check in was super flexible and host kept in contact with us while we arrived at the airport. Great location 5 minute uber away from airport if you want a few hours sleep before or after travels. Room and shared bathroom were clean and well equipped.

It was comfortable clean and quiet and convenient for the airport -but best of all the family were so welcoming and helpful - I was really touched by their kindness. They went above and beyond what they needed to do to make my stay good . I joined them for a BBQ and they helped me by being able to purchase transport to the airport and breakfast which made things very easy - and went out of their way to help me find an ATM .

The facility fully met our expectations. For this price it was hard to expect more. Not far from the airport (45 min by car) - perfect as a starting point for visiting the DOKA coffee plantation, POAZ volcano or LaPaz gardens. After a full day of sightseeing it was very nice to relax in the pool. On site restaurant was not working but there are several supermarkets and restaurants in the area (if you want to stay here unfortunately you have to have a car). Very nice host.
