Agréable si on loge dans le jardin
Pros:

L’emplacement près du parc du volcan Tenorio. La piscine est très agréable. Le parc est intéressant pour voir des animaux surtout le soir.

Cons:

Demandez à être placé dans le jardin absolument. Notre « bungalow » était le long de la route (il n’y en a que 2 avec cette situation) et le bruit des voitures était assez fort. C’est dommage car tous les autres bungalows sont retirés dans le jardin/parc et sont donc beaucoup plus tranquilles.

Mejora continua
Pros:

Los desayunos ofrecidos y el servicio al cliente

Cons:

Que las habitaciones eran mas sencillas en comparación a las otras villas, además el servicio de limpieza no fue continuo durante la estadía y por último a las villas le hace falta un poco de mantenimiento como por ejemplo mallas rotas de las ventanas ya que por las noches se metían insectos debido a los huecos

Un viaje corto pero hermoso
Pros:

Al ser una familia de 4 con 2 adultos mayores, el baño y las camas son ideales para ellos

Cons:

No existe algo que no nos gustará pero para futuros huéspedes sería agradable colocar barandas en el baño para su movilidad y comodidad

Dreckige Schmutzbude
Pros:

Nicht zu empfehlen!

Cons:

Super Dreckig und Hellhörig, es gibt keine Fenster und wir haben Mücken im Zimmer.
Durch die Wände laufen Wasserrohre und man hört jeden einzelnen Tropfen durch laufen, das Bad stinkt und läuft nicht ab.
Handtücher dreckig und mit irgendwelchen Haaren von vorherigen Mietern…
Die Fenster haben zwar Mückenschutz, jedoch sind da viele Löcher darin, weshalb es überhaupt nichts bringt…
Also sucht euch am besten was anderes oder für kurzfristige Aufenthalte.

Nice hotel with an amazing pool, but keep in mind the noisy road.
Pros:

We loved a very clean and spatious room, the little patio opening right into the tropical forest was lovely, the pool was exceptional and we had it all to ourselves. The hotel's location is very convenient: very close to Rio Celeste, Bijagua, and the massive Arbol de la Paz. The typical Costa-Rican breakfast was great too.

Cons:

Unfortunately, our cabin was right next to the road, which gets really noisy very early in the morning (something we didn't expect from being in the mountains away from civilization). This completely ruins the serene atmosphere of the tropical forest we were seeking. I could not sleep past 6am due to the motorcycles passing by every few minutes.

Not enjoyable at all
Pros:

The location, and only the location.

Cons:

They gave us a room that was directly by the main road. We heard every motorcycles and cars driving by all night and all day and it wasn't easy to sleep in that room.

The room had also no ac, no proper table to put our private stuff, no chairs, no mini fridge and it was absolutely empty for a room of that price.

Also the water was always cold. We couldnt shower.

I suggest to book at a better hotel.

Very basic stay near Rio Celeste
Pros:

Very close to Tenorio National Park. Guy at check in was very friendly and helpful. Decent WiFi and secure parking uphill far from the road.

Cons:

No AC. Luckily it rained at night so it cooled off a lot. Pool was freezing cold. Rooms are very very basic and lack any form of character. Shower pressure is very low.
