READ before booking!
Where to start? First we booked a room at caza irazu late in the evening. 30$ with breakfast included. Reservation confirmed. Then later in this evening we received a WhatsApp message from the owner, saying “sorry, there is a mistake on booking, price is for one person, so total is actually 60$”. Double the price! We were surprised. We initially refused, asked to cancel but then realized that it was 20.30 and won’t be possible to find a plan B for the night. We asked the owner for a solution. She said she could do 30$ but no breakfast. Facing the wall we accepted the deal.
The nightmare was not finished. On arrival, as we parked she said we will have to move the car tomorrow in the morning at 7.00 in the morning… because there will be work on the property!
Then for the place itself : it’s basic, the rooms are super small, just enough for a bed and a desk, walls are thin, and with 3 neighbors you can hear them as clear as if they were in the same room. WiFi was not fast. Electricity went out in the morning…
Just for comparison, for the same price (30$), we had a beautiful dome in the nature, with kitchen and toilet in the dome, and a personal jacuzzi in front !
bardzo miła pani - właścicielka, czysto, dobre śniadanie,
trochę trudno trafić, ale to specyfika Costa Rica, bez adresów
Berna war eine wunderbare Gastgeberin und man fühlt sich sehr willkommen. Sie hat uns Tipps gegeben für unseren Ausflug auf den Volcan Irazú. Auch das Frühstück war lecker und wurde nach den Wünschen der Kinder angepasst. Wir fühlten uns wohl und würden wiederkommen.
Etwas umständlich war das hin- und herparken aufgrund einer Baustelle in ihrem Garten. Auch wurde das Badezimmer, welches Berna uns zum alleinigen Gebrauch gezeigt hatte, plötzlich von einer anderen Familie mitbenutzt , ohne dass wir darüber informiert wurden.
Great place close to Volcan Irazu. Nice garden at the entrance. Secure gated parking. Berna is a great host and her English is excellent, which makes it easier for international tourists. Clean room with lots of storage space. The shower and bathroom are modern looking and clean. Guests can cook in the house, although we didn't do it. Brenda prepares a great breakfast for her guests.
None.
We enjoyed our short stay in the casa. It was lovely and the breakfast was delicious.
My stay with Berna was truly very pleasant. I immediately felt at home, and the cozy room made me feel at home. The accommodation is perfect for a trip to the Irazú volcano. Everything is clean, and Berna is a very friendly host.
Breakfast wonderful, parking enclosed, neighborhood quiet, hostess was gracious, late arrival ok.
A homestay with a lovely host. She was super nice and speaks a bit of English. The property is her house and she makes American or Costa Rican breakfast in the morning (which she did for me even for a very early start). Facilities are mostly very quaint and comfortable, and clean. There is a bus that goes to Irazu right near the house and a few restaurants and an ATM in walking distance. I also had a hot shower, which is rarer than I'd like in CR.
A few bugs around. A bit out of the way of central Cartago so if you want to explore the city may not be the most convenient. Payment only in cash.
It’s a home - really nice place to stay for seeing the volcano.
An oasis, lovely garden, room, bed!
Nothing
I recently stayed at Casa Irazu in Cartago, Costa Rica, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. Despite arriving a few hours early, Berna, the host, graciously arranged for someone to let me in without any hassle. The first thing that struck me was the beautiful garden, providing a serene and peaceful atmosphere with outdoor seating to enjoy the view.
Casa Irazu is a secure and welcoming place, perfect for travelers. Although I didn't have a car, I noticed there was free private parking available. The location is convenient, with several restaurants within a short walking distance.
The kitchen was fully equipped with everything needed to cook or heat a meal, and I had space in the refrigerator to store my food. It felt more like a home than a hostel, with a cozy and warm atmosphere. Berna, the host, is a well-traveled, intelligent, and kind individual. We had numerous pleasant discussions, and she even invited me to dine with her visiting family, showcasing her generosity and the great family she has. Watching Costa Rica compete in Copa America with her son and grandchildren added a personal touch to my stay.
Thank you, Berna, for the delicious breakfast and extra cup of coffee. There were both indoor and outdoor dining options, and the place felt secure even through the torrential rain. The availability of a washing machine and a place to hang clothes to dry was very convenient.
The bathroom was clean, functional, and beautifully decorated, with plenty of warm water. My room was comfortable, with a small desk for my laptop, clean bedding, and ample storage space for my belongings during my three-day stay.
One issue was the address on Google, which directs to a different location in town, causing some confusion with transportation. Pay very close attention to Berna's directions when booking.
Had a great stay with my dog and the host is very friendly.
The host was super kind, helpful and friendly. The garden was lovely
