Petite échappée au lac de Côme d’Amérique du Sud
Pros:

La vue est à couper le souffle ! Il y a cependant beaucoup d’escaliers, n’hésitez pas à appeler la réception pour que l’on vienne vous aider à l’arrivée et au départ. Le restaurant est très bon, et beaucoup de choix, options végé. Il est facile d’avoir un bateau (25Q/pers) pour aller de villages en villages. Il ya des serviettes pour se baigner et différents accès pour aller dans le lac. Le ciel se voile vite la journée je vous conseille de faire vos photos le matin vers 10h max

Cons:

La chambre est minuscule, par contre les salles de bain partagées et toilettes sont accessibles et propres. Rien n’est inclus même pas le petit déjeuner donc au final en restaurant on en a eu pour autant que la chambre (en faisant attention). Il y a à peine 6 transats dans tout l’hôtel (dont 2 systématiquement à l’ombre) les places sont chères et c’est dommage. Nous avons opté pour un paiement via revolut, il n’était pas indiqué que nous devrions payer en dollars par revolut donc on a eu une grosse perte niveau change cela mérite d’être clarifié dans le message avant l’arrivée.

Lugar lindo, mas comida poderia melhorar!
Pros:

Realmente o lugar é maravilhoso!
A vista é impressionante dos 3 vulcões!
O quarto também é uma graça.

Cons:

Uma pena que a comida não seja boa. Como o local fica isolado ficamos dependentes de pelo menos jantar no hotel. Mas infelizmente a comida é cara e não é gostosa. Além disso, os horários também são um pouco restritos: o café da manhã a partir das 08h é um pouco tarde e o jantar até às 19h30 cedo demais.
Outra questão pouco prática é o pagamento da diária, alimentação e todos os serviços dever ser em espécie.

Pros:

Absolutely loved my stay! The garden, the breathtaking views, and the beautifully decorated room, with so many captivating details you just want to stare at, were incredible. The private terrace was the perfect bonus! I also loved going for a swim and relaxing on the benches tucked away in different spots, all looking out at the stunning volcanoes.

Cons:

1. It’s a mystery to me how a double espresso (in a coffee-producing country) can cost more than a glass of (likely imported) wine. While I didn’t expect low prices, some of the pricing just didn't make sense.
2. Unfortunately, there was an unpleasant smell coming from the bathroom sink. While manageable for a short visit, it would definitely become an issue for a stay longer than 2 nights.

Buen spot de fotos para ir de pasadía
Pros:

La vista, se me voy bonito los paisajes desde el hotel. El servicio de los meseros

Cons:

Poca proactivad de servicio y asistencia para recibir y bajar maletas
No aceptación de tarjetas de crédito para un hotel de tal "categoría"
Escaleras infinitas, no inclusivo para personas con movilidad reducida
Las habitaciones no cuentan con facilidades tan básicas como un shampoo, un secador, un jabón líquido de manos, café

Pros:

You have seen the TikToks, simply amazing. The rooms, the view, the food.. we were at room 5

Cons:

And because of the TikToks it becomes kinda crowded mid-day, but it's not too much of a problem

Great views with a lot of attitude and inconvenience
Pros:

The location is superb and the hotel is a cute eclectic group of rooms on a hill. The garden is spectacular.

Cons:

The hotel treat customers like they are doing us a favour. Quite a list of restrictions and conditions that create inconvenience. To mention a few, they only accept cash and the hotel does not have ATMs near since is only accessible by boat. Neighbouring towns often have power outages and you might travel all the way there and not being able to withdraw money. Also there is a max limit on how much can be withdrawn which is not enough to pay for three nights and the pricey food.

Also the hotel policy is that cancellation are not allowed and customers are charged fully even in the case of unforeseen situations.

Food was great but expensive and in a particular occasion de waiter made a mistake with the order and when we asked for it to be changed it told us that we should have picked up the mistake.

My recommendation. Would be visit the place for lunch but stay somewhere else.
