Comfortable stay in Monteverde
Pros:

The lodge was in a great location for the tours we planned in the area. Our room is what we expected, a clean room with comfortable beds. The grounds are nicely kept. The staff are all very nice. An added bonus were the monkeys that came through one evening.

Cons:

It would have been nice to have a refrigerator in the room so we could have kept drinks cold.

Lloc amb encant i al mateix poble de Santa Elena.
Pros:

Amabilitat del personal, cabana que ens van donar molt be, esmorzar molt correcte.

Cons:

Potser el preu es massa car comparat amb altres hotels de la mateixa categoria de Costa Rica.
