Nos encantó la estadía en este hotel, es muy tranquilo, es muy conveniente de llegar, aceptan mascotas, hay muchas opciones para comer e incluye desayunos, sin embargo pueden mejorar con el tema de la limpieza y tuvimos que ir varias veces al lobby a solicitar jabón, porque solo nos dieron uno tanto para manos como para cuerpo para 2 personas, tuvimos que volver a solicitar más y solo nos dieron un segundo jabón.

Staff did not attend to the remediation of the WiFi network and TV network. The gentleman took a look saw the problem said he would come back and never did. Also my wife had the staff turn in the fireplace only to have the room full of smoke due to the fact that they left the damper closed. we had to switch rooms due to the smell. Dangerous.

They weren’t expecting our arrival and gave us a dirty room with no towels and no hair dryer, we requested a dryer multiple times before they gave us one. The trash can was dirty. It had dead bugs in the floor, and a living cockroach was in the shower, they offered us another room that also had bugs in the shower, then gave us another one that was also dirty (not as much as the other two)

No documents in english to read at check in , but the staff went out of their way to make it easy. Get their before dark as its is a low lit area high on the hill. Great signage getting to property. Check in by 8p thankfully they extended this to 9p for a friend. Friendly, quiet and spread-out property. Hot water and super clean room. Surprised little wood and no fire started stocked in "heated room" and no bottom bed sheet. Otherwise, everything was fabulous and out of their way to fix issues.

Good to go eat not to stay overnight.
Great service and food, front service desk and waiters service is excellent. But the chalets are old and need to be thoroughly clean, there are spider webs, the rooms smell like humidity/mold, the bathrooms toilets are stain. The roof on top of one of the beds was falling and we even found a rusty nail on the bed. Around the property needs a lot maintenance on the gardens and places to sit. Overall is ok to go eat and visit but not to stay overnight.

We loved having a fire place in the room, what a treat! The place is old but quite a cool retro experience... Where else can you stay in a Tyrolean chalet in Costa Rica? It's lovely and fresh, quite chilly in the mornings, and the neighborhood is worth exploring on foot or bike. We did a great hike up on Cerro Dantas and through the wildlife refuge (2,500 entry)... It's about 2km to the gate and then a 3km loop in the refuge but very muddy and wet so make sure you're prepared. All in all, a unique weekend experience!

The rooms seemed a bit tired. The menu at the restaurant needs an urgent update, it was not vegetarian friendly and presentation of food was too simple. If you are staying for over two nights, it can be difficult to be offered only the traditional gallo pinto for breakfast every day. On the positive side, the staff was friendly and willing to accommodate, for example, we were able to use the fire pit even though apparently it is only made available for use on weekends.
