A great place to stay for visiting Irazu and surroundings.
Pros:

The apartment is cute, clean and modern. We had everything we needed in the kitchenette. It made the stay pleasant and comfortable. The host Berna is very kind and friendly.

Cons:

Bring earplugs if you need complete silence to sleep, this is a city and dogs will be barking. But that’s what dogs do 😂.

Pros:

Casa Irazú is a modern apartment in the outer parts of Cartago. Early check-in was possible and we were welcomed by the host as we arrived.

The apartment itself looks really new and has some modern furniture. The kitchen area was well equipped and there was definitely enough space. You will find the bed upstairs- it's very comfortable.

Very nice apartment for a couple nights :)

Cons:

It wasn't totally clean - dog hair were lying around on the bathroom floor.

Great value in Cartago
Pros:

Nice home and friendly host. A few doors down from a market. Easy access to a major route to Irazu or San Jose. Cartago is a great place to access Irazu and Tapanti.

Cons:

No hot shower, but that is pretty common in Costa Rica.

Toller Ausblick!
Pros:

Nettes Appartement auf 2 Stockwerken (Schlafzimmer über relativ steile Treppe zu erreichen) mt tollem Blick auf Catago.
Kaffeepulver und frische Milch im Kühlschrank. Ruinas in ca. 20 Minuten bergab fußläufig zu erreichen. Parkmöglichkeit im Hof für rangierfreudige Autofahrer.

Cons:

Wie üblich nicht genügend Handtuchhalter im Bad.
Der Schwamm in der Küche hatte seine besten Zeiten hinter sich.

Pros:

Tranquillità, cortesia, ambiente. In casa non mancava assolutamente nulla

Cons:

Difficile trovare qualcosa che non andava. Ho consapevolmente scelto questo bnb perché avevo unauto e quindi, la posizione un po' decentrata, ma comunque a 2 passi da un supermercato, per me non era un fattore, ma se si fosse a piedi, andare e tornare dal centro può diventare impegnativo per via della pendenza
