Rooms were clean and modern, good shower and bathroom facilities, with a view for sunrise and wonderful terrace for sunset viewing over pacific. Staff were friendly courteous and helpful, breakfast was delicious and the pool overlooking valleys on both pacific and mountain sides was an incredible place to rest and relax! All for an excellent deal as well!

Booked through Expedia and property was closed. Closes at 9pm and didn't answer their phone between 830-9pm. Charged for a room that we couldn't use. Zero communication from this place. They don't care and Expedia doesn't care.

No shower, good view

Bed was comfortable, view was great, but stay was unpleasant overall. For the considerable price, no help with luggage. Remote location on dirt road. Mosquitos in room. Loud groaning air conditioner. Weak breakfast of fruit, bottled juice, unseasoned eggs and plain toast woth no butter or jam. They could not break a $100 bill. Worst, we got no shower but a trickle of cold water. No apology or compensation. Don't come here.

Nette kleine Unterkunft mit einigen Schönheitsfehlern. Wir waren die einzigen Gäste, was sehr angenehm war. Großes Zimmer, in dem gerne in den Ecken etwas besser hätte geputzt werden können. Die tote Motte, die bei unserer Ankunft auf dem Boden lag, wurde erst am 3. Tag weg geputzt. Die Gläser und Tassen habe ich nach 3 Tagen zum Spülen ins Restaurant gebracht. Ich hatte erwartet, dass sie bei der Zimmerreinigung ausgetauscht werden. Das Zimmer war groß genug, dass 2 Kofferablagen Platz gefunden hätten und die Koffer hätten nicht auf dem Boden liegen müssen. Schöner Pool, einige Liegen sind kaputt (war uns egal, da ausser uns niemand da war) Kleine Frühstücksauswahl. Unsere Sonderwünsche wurden erfüllt, was toll war! Beim Personal war von etwas unfreundlich bis total freundlich alles dabei....

Vale por el esfuerzo de la gerente.

El hotel es para estar tranquilo y relajado, la estadía fue buena y el servicio que Yuli la gerente intenta dar es muy bueno, aunque el personal no ayuda mucho. Lo terrible fue la comida, el desayuno estaba incluido, pero como el hotel tiene un servicio de compra de los desayunos con el restaurante de las instalaciones, no hay buen servicio. Por lo malo de las comidas, no pudimos comer allí y salimos fuera. Las habitaciones tienen una puerta de vidrio por donde entra la luz muy temprano, no hay problema si te quieres ir de paseo, pero cuesta quedarse a dormir tarde. El lugar es muy bonito.

Bonito, simple y muy tranquilo

Bonito Hotel. Pequeño, simple y muy tranquilo. Alejado de la calle principal para descansar que es su atractivo principal. Su personal aunque es escaso para sus 5 habitaciones se esfuerza por llenar tus expectativas. Si no tienes automóvil 4x4 mejor ir en verano, porque la calle de acceso como todas en la zona, es bastante irregular pero despacio se puede ir sin problema, Su pequeño restaurante no abre todos los días, pero July y su personal siempre te darán recomendaciones muy buenas. En la noche las luces de la entrada del hotel las apagan a las 10 pm, pero no tienes problema en entrar si usas tu teléfono o alguna linterna para poder ingresar. Muy limpio, el desayuno agradable, buen Internet, linda piscina y una vista espectacular. Gente atenta y amable. En general, nos gustó mucho nuestra estadía, volveríamos a descansar y gozar de la tranquilidad de la zona y de un hotel pequeñito y muy quieto.
