We were really surprised at the quaint 5 bungalow hotel in Costa Rica. It was very clean, not far from the town of LaFortuna and a short drive to Arenal Volcano areas. The breakfast was prepared in the owners kitchen and was very traditional.

The people, Greta and Milton and Iliana are the friendliest, most helpful and fun inn keepers. The location is quiet yet short, inexpensive taxi rides get you to all the sites on and around the Arenal volcano. We had a lovely 6 night stay. Great value !

Not so goo.

So the lodge is in the yard of the owners home, they are nice people and the service is good. However, I had to wait for them to get the AC to work after I checked in, I wanted to shower, relax and go out for lunch. Well after they finally got the AC to work I proceeded to shower, NO HOT WATER. It's not the case that the water wasn't getting hot, when I turned on the hot water side nothing came out. So yes, I took a cold shower. After my shower I proceeded to leave for dinner, however I couldn't get the door to lock, the owner came over and had to hold the a certain way to get it to lock. I did not feel that my belongings was safe in this room because the big gap in the door that was supposed to be locked. I woke up around 7:30 to depart for a 8:00am tour and the gate to get my car out was locked, so I didn't make the tour and had to wait for the owners to wake up.
