It is quite dated and smells musty. It also needs a deep clean if not a complete reno. Heating is with either a wood burning fireplace with no screen or a space heater. We did not feel safe with the fireplace.

Beautiful place, with an amazing restaurant. We stayed there to visit the Poas volcano in the morning. The TV system in our room didn't work but we didn't miss it much.

I wouldn’t stay here if they paid me. It is freezing and no heat in the rooms. Toilet, shower broken. They gave boards with nail instead of log for fireplace which burned out in a few hours and we were freezing all night. Woke up with head cold. Toilet is broken and doesn’t stop leaking water. Shower doors have to be lifted to move since the slider is broken. Bed is too small (6 ft - 85!kg) with either the head banging on board or feet hanging off. On plus side, the staff is excellent.

Good friendly family run hotel.

Our stay was good and we had a good time. Initially we had a problem with Credit card payment, and several attempts did not go through. Then there were multiple payments against the card. With the help of Hilary, this was resolved quickly. The restaurant was great and the location very peaceful. Recommend this hotel for access to Poas Volcano. The hotel is very well situated for access to the important venues to visit.

The owner was so friendly when we checked in. He showed us our room where we had hummingbird feeders hanging right outside so it was cool to see some species that we've never seen before. The room was clean and the breakfast was made to order. We also ate dinner at the restaurant the night before. The location is a 15 minute drive to Poas volcano crater which is why we stayed at this hotel. It was a one night stop after flying into San Jose on our way to La Fortuna. It was definitely worth the money.

Poas La Paz revisit.

Stayed in this Hotel before several years ago because of it's location and restaurant. Near the Poas volcano and La Paz Water Fall Lodge which we visited. During our stay experienced several tremors from a nearby earthquake not serious though.

Good day!! I was not able to get there. I looked for a hotel close to my point of interest,”Pozas Celeste’s.” The hotel said that it was located 7.63 miles from my point of interest, however it was not. I drove about 65 kilometers to point of interest, I used Waze and Google maps. Once I arrived to my point of interest, waze and Google maps said to drive 50 miles more. We asked the local about the hotel, and they never heard of it. We were never able to get there.
