Pros:

Das Frühstück war sehr gut und ausreichend. Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Der Rezeptionist hat uns auch die beste Zeit herausgesucht, wann man zum Whale's Tale gehen kann. Zum Strand muss man ein kleines Stück gehen, dafür sind um's Eck zwei sehr gute Essensmöglichkeiten.

Cons:

Unser Zimmer hatte - im Gegensatz zu anderen Zimmern - im Aufenthaltsraum keine blickdichten Vorhänge, was im Erdgeschoß nicht so toll ist. Auch war auf den Fotos eine bequeme Couch zu sehen - bei uns stand eine sehr harte und daher unbequeme Rattancouch.

Purtroppo abbiamo trovato una blatta in camera, dovuta probabilmente alla presenza di vegetazione nella struttura

Pros:

Hotel sencillo y bien ubicado. La habitación era como un pequeño apartamento, con una pequeña cocina y una terraza.
El personal muy agradable.
Desayuno bien. Tiene una piscina que cumple para cuando vienes de la playa.

Cons:

Teníamos unas escaleras algo incómodas para subir a nuestra habitación. A la hora del desayuno el espacio se queda un poco pequeño y resulta algo agobiante.

All perfect!
Pros:

Only stayed one night on our way from Corcovado to La Fortuna, but it was the perfect stopover which allowed us to enjoy the Whale tail beach which is about 20min walking distance. The little pool was nice. Friendly staff and good breakfast!
