We enjoyed our stay and thought that the rooms were quaint and cute. The weather, however, was cooler in La Fortuna than expected. Add in the rain and that added to the temperature feeling even colder. Because of that the rooms got pretty cool and without having any sort of heat to turn on, that made our accommodations not as comfortable as we would've liked.

The location was clean, beautiful, and well situated towards La Fortuna and the Hot Springs. The breakfast buffet was great in terms of satiating us with traditional beans and rice, scrambled eggs, pancakes, toast, cereals, lots of fruit as well. The pools were nice and clean as where the bedrooms. My own suggestion would be to add conditioner to the menu of soap and shampoo.
