Très bon emplacement pour visiter la Fortuna et belle piscine et chambres

Cons:

La propreté de la cuisine et vétusté des accessoires de cuisine Commune (2 poêles, 2 casseroles, et pas assez de couverts et verres pour une famille de 4) alors qu'il y a une dizaine d appartements

Great value & location
Pros:

Great location! Easy walking to all restaurants and only a 2 minute drive to the main area of Fortuna. We didn't use the pool, but it looked nice. Check in and out was simple (owner also owns/runs Saffron, the Indian restaurant in front) and it's a very relaxed vibe overall. A/C ran cold!

Cons:

There was no front desk staff or note to contact until I saw a cleaning staff member. Turns out the owner also runs the Indian restaurant right in front and was there. Once we got in contact, it was easy and simple check in. The curtains dont cover the full sliding doors and the lights are kept on outside.

Pros:

The hotel is only 9 minutes by car from the town center, 1 minute's walk to the market, 15 minutes to the Sky Bridge, and 15 minutes to Arenal Volcano. The pool offers an amazing view of the volcano, which makes the stay even more special. The kitchen next to the pool is fully equipped, so I highly recommend buying some local coffee and enjoying it using the coffee machine. Overall, it was a great place to stay!
