The shower hose wasnt connected properly so the water sprayed everywhere and the pressure wasnt good. The breakfast offered was runny scrambled eggs and burnt pancakes. The fruit looked like it was old and mushy. Not worth the money!

Loved the property. I felt completely safe and it completely embodied Costa Rica. The mattress is very hard. I asked for something to soften it as it felt like I was sleeping on the floor but they said it would be a few. I said, no thank you. If you like super hard beds this property will be amazing.

The view of the volcano here is amazing (when the clouds clear), absolutely beautiful. We stayed in a bungalow and it was very spacious and had everything we needed. The breakfast was great and served early which was perfect for us to get on our way to our excursions. Parking was good we always found a spot. There are a few dining options around here but not many, it is very helpful to have a car as it is about 15 minutes outside of the main area. For us the location away from the downtown was perfect and a much quieter option.

Very nice property. Friendly staff, good breakfast. Easy to move around with Uber. Our room was on the ground floor so it got easily wet. Could not find dryer to dry clothes.
