This is the place to stay in this area unless you can afford the resorts up the mountain. $45 a night this time of year, the rooms are nice, roomy and clean. The pool is clean and refreshing although the jucuzzi was inoperable at this time. Great green area behind the pool very relaxing. As with many places near the... more

I promised the hotel owner that I would sit down to write her a rave review when I get back to the States. That was 4 months ago. And although this is delayed, I feel compelled to fulfill my promise to her. I might have forgotten some details, but I'll try my best. My friends and I stayed for 2-3... more

Melania, the owner, tipifies what Pura Vida means. There was nothing she couldn't do for us to make our stay wonderful. I had forgotten that they had requested payment in cash but saw their sign when we checked in. Melania's response, "Don't worry, you'll pay tomorrow." We didn't have a rental car and she arranged a tour for us with... more

The hostess was nice. The room was basic but clean. They have a pool in the back. The window overlooks the volcano. Free breakfast in the morning. Compared with the prices of other places in the area, a good bargain. more

Melania and Pacho welcomed us to Costa Rica as if we were long lost relatives. We had them pick us up from the airport and the trip back from the airport was fun as we chit-chatted with our hosts. I was quite surprised by one reviewer saying the rooms were dark - there is a HUGE window in each room... more

CR is expensive for accommodation and this proves the point. Large, dark, noisy rooms (road noise). No bedside lamp. Towels the size of a hankie. All for 50 dollars. I pay less for a better room in Canada or my native Europe. The best part is the breakfast at the soda next door - really nice place, great food. I... more
