Daniel, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

We had a lovely 4 night stay. Great location, and nice restaurants nearby (especially Trevesia). Great view of the volcano, nice and clean grounds with very friendly staff and guests. Breakfast was simple but good (3 options: eggs fried or scrambled, either with toast, pancakes, or rice/beans). Overall, a nice 3-star hotel, we were happy with this choice.
Melanie, 4-night trip

Resort is great, nice garden inside and small but nice pool. Rooms were ok, too small for a family but decent and clean. Very close to great restaurants and the volcano tours.

Zakariya, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

Staff was very friendly and ready to help. We had an issue with the toilet and they came to help right away and resolved the issue. Location was great and very walkable to town. Beautiful grounds and pool looked beautiful. (We didn’t end up using it due to thunderstorms but wished we had been able to). They were wonderful and accommodated our early morning departure with an early breakfast. It was a very nice place to stay.
Emily, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Comfortable bed, good breakfast, nice-helpful staff. Our only suggestion for improvement would be the sound on the television was crackling like the speaker was busted.

Very decent place to stay, rooms are a little outdated but very clean. There is a lot of room for improvement in the rooms and common areas, but very good place for the place. Location was amazing.
Luis, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The hospitality was the best we experienced in Costa Rica. The breakfast service was amazing. The room was everything it promised and more! The privacy and the safety measures they take are far above and beyond anything we experienced else where. The staff were absolutely professional, kind, courteous, and helpful at all times. If you were going to go to La Fortuna, this is where you stay no other place.
