Overnight on Monteverde.

Pros: The staff is exceptionally professional and friendly.
Cons: Not really.
Location: Monteverde Cloud Forest, shopping downtown and the hummingbirds. Be sure to stop at the Bajo del Tigre; part of the Eternal Children's Rain Forest.
We came into town about mid-day. Beautiful day and evening. We were greeted by a very welcoming staff that could not do enough to be sure that their guests were well cared for. Our room was spacious, clean and very comfortable. We had a large law area directly in front of our room and took advantage to view the stars at night. The Breakfast was just right with fresh fruit, tasty coffee and a variety of other breakfast items to please everyone.

Wished I would of skipped this one

The pictures don't look nothing like the hotel, it's really dated and blah! Great place for a family that wants to get away from civilization. No Wifi in rooms, had to go to receptionist office in pj's to get my wifi on. There's no reception for phones unless you stand on top of the roof, I guess. I booked this hotel and immediately regretted it within 10 min, so I asked for cancellation, but was denied. In my opinion not worth the price.
