Hotel Presidente

5/5 Excellent
"We loved this hotel! We were traveling as a group of 3 women and felt very safe staying here. The complimentary breakfast was very good and the front desk was very helpful during our entire stay. I would recommend this hotel. + it’s located in the city center which made it easy to walk to all the local sights. We stayed for one night before catching a shuttle to La Fortuna! "
