My family including our 10 and 11 year old children stayed here for one night while we checked out La Fortuna to see Arenal Volcano and La Fortuna Waterfall. The best thing about this hotel is the convenient location to everything and excellent customer service. We only stayed one night so it did its purpose of allowing us to stay in a place for an affordable price. But if you are saying longer and want comfortable beds with a decent pool then I say book somewhere else. It's right on the main plaza in La Fortuna so it was loud (ear plugs saved us). I also would not recommend swimming in the "pool." I think it was more of a pond and it's situated right where the restaurant is so everyone can see you while they are dining. All in all, it was an ok stay. Harrison at the front desk was amazing with his customer service and answered all our questions. Also the free breakfast was amazing so that was a highlight.
The free breakfast buffet in the morning was excellent.

Recomiendo este hotel sin ninguna duda. Todos los empleados fueron amables, serviciales y dispuestos a ayudar. Karen y Daniel hicieron que nuestra experiencia fuera más de lo esperado con sus atenciones. Nuestra habitación para cuatro personas fue cómoda, siempre limpia y con todo lo esencial (aire acondicionado, máquina de café, neverita con refrigerios, toallas y artículos de higiene personal). El desayuno es buffet, variado y delicioso. Ofrece el tradicional gallo pinto, y a su vez tiene alternativas calientes y frias para el gusto de todos. La ubicación del hotel es perfecta para explorar la comunidad La Fortuna. Ubica en la vía principal de acceso al Volcán Arenal (donde en días despejados puedes observarlo) al costado de la Iglesia Católica. En el hotel puedes coordinar las diferentes actividades y excursiones que La Fortuna ofrece (hicimos varias y todas fueron espectaculares). El hotel cuenta con restaurante llamado Maria Bonita Steak House y una barra, Selva Negra Cocktail & Wine Bar. Tuve oportunidad de visitar ambos y fueron espectaculares, tanto en calidad, servicio y experiencia disfrutada. Para algo más ligero cuentan con La Ventanita de Maria Bonita, donde ofrece platos más ligeros igualmente ricos en ordenes para llevar. Este hotel superó todas mis expectativas en todos los aspectos y sin duda volvería a alojarme aquí.

Excellent breakfast and customer service!! Noisy at night because of the bar but noise stops around 10pm. Everything is near and wakable. My kids favorite part was the towel shapes that they leave on the bed every morning after cleaning the room. Staff is professional and nice at all times.

Decent for the cost .

Reception staff was wonderful! JJ is an absolute star , their recommendations for restaurants & things to do were top notch ! The rooms are pretty dated , but clean , sheets have been used for waaay too long , they're stained & worn . Breakfast was great , no problems with the hot water. The room was quite noisy ( concert from either the fridge/freezer , the fan in the bathroom or somewhere in the walls ).

The good: Very clean. The complimentary breakfast was fantastic. The staff was friendly. Convenient location for La Fortuna. Parking was convenient on the street. We were able to park right at the front door of the hotel both nights. The negative: Very very loud street noise made it very difficult to sleep. Room was small.
