Nice quiet location, 5min walk from downtown. Helpful staff, clean room. They also helped us arrange few tours, so definitely ask them for that, they have good recommendations. The breakfast served was nice as well.

Lovely place to stay - just right for our group of three friends. Beautiful garden. The location is just outside of la Fortuna, around a 5 minute taxi drive to the centre. It felt nice and calm compared with the bustling of La Fortuna, but did mean getting around took slightly more time. The room was spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was very good! The staff were exceptional - welcoming, helpful, went above and beyond in every way!

A nice place to stay not too far from the center of La Fortuna. If you are looking for a hotel outside the busy city center this is the place to be. The rooms are basic but good and clean. The breakfast is okay but not very special. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Very helpful and friendly owners, great location, and very comfortable beds and pillows. Close to the volcano and downtown park/shopping. The warm shower, air conditioning, free coffee, and clean apartment was truly appreciated! The warm blankets were also nice to have at night. Also, you can see the volcano from the outside patio- so wonderful!

Location was close to the downtown. There were a few restaurants and grocery stores within a short walk. Rooms were small but well furnished, The staff members were helpful and friendly. The grounds were nicely landscaped with trees and tropical plants. There was a pool which seemed to attract a lot of the guests.

Location was great as we had a rental car. It was away from the city centre so it was quiet and peaceful. The grounds were beautiful. Each room had their own designated parking spot so you weren’t fighting for a spot close to your door. Staff was great, especially little Simba! 😀 We could see the Arenal volcano from our front porch!!
