This hotel is a little far from town. If you don't mind getting a taxi each time you go and leave town, it's fine. The bed was not very comfortable. The air conditioning made a clicking noise the entire time it was on. It was very pretty and breakfast was very nice. Other than location the other issues are fixable.

Close to shopping

Room was clean, no-frills. No glasses or ice. Breakfast was tasty. From our room, there was highway noise. From the beach where we live, dry and hot, to the mountains where it rained every day and was much cooler, it was a nice break.

Motel on the main road but far away from anything

This is a really basic motel. You get a bed, bathroom, safe, TV and that's about it. The only plug socket we had was in the bathroom above the sink! We were in room 2, which is by the main road. The walls are really thin, so if your unlucky and get rooms 1, 2 or 3 you will be woken up to the sound of heavy goods vehicles at around 5.30am (even with earplugs). We asked If there were any other rooms available and the answer was 'no'. As in, that was the single word response we got. We had a look online though and rooms were available. When we asked about things to do in the area, all we could get was 'I don't know, but these tours we offer are really good...'. The other thing about this motel is that it's really far from anything, so you really need a car to stay here. The town will cost about $5 in taxi, and the national park is $25! Both one way!

Hotel review

Hotel was nice. Albeit the mattress bedding was a bit hard. There was also a few bugs every now and then. Location, very noisy from all the traffic going down in the road. It made it a bit difficult to sleep sometimes. Hotel was close to downtown La Fortuna with taxi about 2500 colones. Nice scenery outside with good view of the volcano. Customer service was excellent. Tasty breakfast provided every morning. They would also help you on booking tours during your stay. Good place to stay overall if you don't mind those tiny details.

Can't say enough about the manager, Eric. Great guy. Most obliging and helpful. Hotel is basic, but very charming and clean. Nice breakfast. Nice grounds and view. Out of bustle of town. View of Arenal might have been wonderful, but fogged ot for us.

Nice little place with amazing service

For such a low price, the hotel is extremely well maintained. It is a 10 minute drive from La Fortuna on the highway and you can see Arenal volcano from the backyard if the sky is clear. The room itself is small and the bed is a little hard. But the room is really well maintained and clean. The best part is the service. The lady who maintains this place (sorry, forgot her name) was very sweet to both of us and even cooked a custom breakfast which was delicious. This place had the best Gallo Pinto we had in Costa Rica. Thanks for the great experience.

Honeymoon stay

we stayed at this hotel during on of our stops in Costa Rica for our honeymoon. They owner was very nice. We felt safe and the room was very private. We went during off season so even for breakfast it was just us. The food was good. The room was a bit too warm for us and didn't have a fan. The door did let in a couple ants but we were in Costa Rica so bugs should be normal. We had a rental car so we were able to drive to all the places we wanted. Close but still private. great price for our few nights we were there. Served its purpose!

Great staff, tasty breakfast, and a beautiful view of the volcano! The only drawback was that only cold water came out of the shower on the last two days... But, I will definitely stay again if I have a chance to return to La Fortuna.

Despite the hotel being slightly remote from town which was a plus, it is on a major road that is noisy until late evening and again early morning. The staff is very obliging.
