Loved the property. I felt completely safe and it completely embodied Costa Rica. The mattress is very hard. I asked for something to soften it as it felt like I was sleeping on the floor but they said it would be a few. I said, no thank you. If you like super hard beds this property will be amazing.

The view of the volcano here is amazing (when the clouds clear), absolutely beautiful. We stayed in a bungalow and it was very spacious and had everything we needed. The breakfast was great and served early which was perfect for us to get on our way to our excursions. Parking was good we always found a spot. There are a few dining options around here but not many, it is very helpful to have a car as it is about 15 minutes outside of the main area. For us the location away from the downtown was perfect and a much quieter option.

Very nice property. Friendly staff, good breakfast. Easy to move around with Uber. Our room was on the ground floor so it got easily wet. Could not find dryer to dry clothes.

The view of the Volcano is fantastic, but it can not make up for the fact that the facility is missing so much in terms of both comfort and common sense. Not having normal latches on doors is insane, not having a mini fridge or microwave is unfortunate. But the unforgivable is not being able to clean all the sheets, towels and pillow cases appropriately. Everything was soiled, stained, smelled of human prespiration or other bodily fluids including possible blood stains on one pillow case. There is a lot to fix. Staff was OK, but they did lie a lot and looked out for making a quick buck when booking transportation.
