Excelente lugar
Pros:

Tiene un jardín increíble que relaja solo al verlo, habitaciones muy amplias y personal muy atento y amable.

Cons:

Aunque la habitacion está muy bien, se podrían mejorar dos cosas: el piso de la ducha se vuelve muy resbaloso cuando se moja y para personas mayores como yo, es de mucho cuidado.
También el televisor es muy pequeño por el tamaño de la habitación (32 pulgadas) y no pudimos ver las noticias locales, solo se podía ver Netflix. Entonces nos habría gustado saber como poder hacer para ver los canales "normales" o YouTube

Excellent endroit pour terminer le voyage.
Pros:

Nous avons aimé la beauté et la tranquillité des lieux. On s'y sentait loin de la ville. La chambre était spacieuse et le personnel très accueillant.

Cons:

Rien... Mais un ouvre-bouteille dans la chambre aurait été apprécié.

Fin de semana relax
Pros:

En general el hotel es perfecto para el descanso en un ambiente tranquilo

Cons:

La habitación en que estuvimos durante toda la noche hubo una bomba de agua que prendía cada media hora y eso interrumpía el sueño de mi esposa

Dernière nuit à San Jose avant de reprendre l’avion.
Pros:

La possibilité d’encore séjourner dans un écrin de verdure à quelques minutes de l’aéroport.
Il faisait très calme. Le jardin et la piscine permettent encore de profiter d’une dernière journée avant de reprendre l’avion. Le personnel est adorable et le restaurant ouvert toute la journée permet de manger pour des prix très corrects.

Cons:

En logeant dans les chambres du fond, il y a une lampe qui s’allume à chaque passage et qui éclairait fort la chambre via la porte d’entrée.

Excelente para Eventos en Parque Viva
Pros:

Habitaciones espaciosas, decoración moderna, todo muy limpio y el personal muy amable y dispuestos a proporcionar ayuda e información

Cons:

Mi habitación tiene una regadera extra a la par del baño y la separa una puerta de vidrio transparente que comunica hacia el patio y eso solo está cubierto por tela de plástico lo cual quita privacidad.

Pros:

Gorgeous place, our first and last stop in Costa Rica as close to airport but still relatively quiet and peaceful, surrounded by wildlife and birds.. Staff very nice and accomodating. Hugely helpful when i temporarily lost medication. Helped us with booking taxis etc v efficiently. Nice food at the restaurant for breakfast and dinner. Huge rooms, very comfortable. Fantastic pool. Easy to arrange car hire from hotel. Would always stay there again when flying into costa rica

Amazing staff who made us feel really welcome. We loved this hotel and were so glad we're going back for our last night in Costa Rica. Lovely separate units with huge comfy beds and great showers, too. We were amazed at how much wildlife we saw in the gardens in the morning, too!

Cons:

Nothing!
