Very nice property just meters from downtown area. Easy to access restaurants and shops. There was access to a sister property that had hotsprings that we didn’t, take advantage of.

It was nothing special but then a decent price so you get what you pay for. Our room was very dark and painted brown so made it darker and bit dismal. Felt more like a motel, but the breakfast was good.

Great stay!

This hotel was a great choice. The included breakfast was amazing, it’s very centrally located AND the free use of hot springs at their sister hotel was an incredible added bonus. The staff was very helpful and friendly and the grounds were well-kept and clean. We would definitely go back and stay again.

We’ve stayed here twice now and there’s things we love and things that weren’t our favorite that we accepted as it is a budget friendly hotel, but there was one thing that occurred this time we just couldn’t look past that will have us looking elsewhere if we find ourselves back in La fortuna in the future. Pros: amazing location (next to the best sushi place in town), wonderful friendly staff, really good free breakfast, access to their sister hotel that has hot spring pools and a wet bar which we really enjoyed. I cannot say enough nice things about the staff here. Cons: they do not have blankets on the beds, only sheets. Not the worst but not very comfortable, but again, very budget friendly hotel so we felt this was tolerable. Beds aren’t very comfortable and lighting is super harsh which again.. is not ideal but completely fine for the price. Deal breaker: cockroaches in the room. Not just one. But three. Not just on the ground, but one of them was found crawling ON US in bed in the middle of the night. Overall, if it weren’t for the roaches, we’d recommend because for the cost, the pros outweigh the cons… but we just can’t look past the roaches.

The property was wonderful. It’s located in downtown La fortuna so all restaurants and shops are a short walk. It was quiet and the rooms comfortable. Breakfast was delicious. The added perk was they gave you complimentary access to the volcano lodge hot springs which we enjoyed. Parking was easy and the staff was friendly. I would recommend staying here

Perfect for the price. The breakfast was outstanding, the location was an ideal home base for day trips, the staff were helpful, friendly and kind. Loved it here. The room is very basic and could use a little tlc, but it is clean and spacious.
