I enjoyed my stay here
Pros:

It’s a decent hotel in general, hotel was clean and the front desk staff Maria was very sweet and helpful. Beds and shower were comfortable enough. And the location is really right in the center of La Fortuna.

Cons:

The toilet water was not strong enough, so could get stuck easily.

Excelente lugar, volvería sin falta.
Pros:

Cuanta con lo necesario para hacer la estancia cómoda, lo mejor es la ubicación, la disposición del personal y sin duda los desayunos .

Cons:

Quizás la temperatura de las duchas podría elevarse un par de grados

Pros:

A great spot for one night in Lough Fortuna. Reception was very helpful to allow us for a late check-in. The room was basic but clean with a dehumidifier to help. Breakfast was delicious.
Good location if you want to be right in the heart of La Fortuna

Okay
Pros:

The receptionist was kind and helpful. The outdoor seating area was lovely. They allowed me to store my belongings in the laundry room after my checkout time and allowed me to wait in the seating area until my ride arrived. They provided ear plugs due to the street noise.

Cons:

The towels had some stains on them. The toilet didn’t flush properly at times. Bathroom was quite small to navigate in. Water in the shower and sink was just slightly warm. The second bed space had a fan or machine that was quite loud. No safe for valuables.

Pros:

Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, Lage sehr zentral

Cons:

Unser Zimmer hatte die Wand direkt an der Strasse, was sehr laut war. Sie stellten jedoch präventiv bereits Oropax zuf Verfügung.
Frühstück gab es im Stakehous gegenüber, leider keinerlei vegane Optionen, nicht mal eine Milchalternative (umliegende Supermärkte und Restaurants waren viel vortschrittlicher)

Não foi confortável por conta do barulho incessante dia e noite na rua
Pros:

Abajour, ar condicionado, tomadas perto da cama, toalha cheirosa

Cons:

Extremamente barulhenta a rua, escadas, cama pequena.
O café da manhã começa tarde para quem vai fazer passeios ou viajar no dia
