Hotel mit schöner Parkanlage, aber verbesserungsfähigem Frühstück
Pros:

Die Hotelanlage war sehr angenehm, wie eine tropische Parkanlage. Der Pool war schön und sauber. Das Personal an der Zufahrt war zuvorkommend.

Cons:

Daran, dass laute Motorräder von der Straße stören, kann das Hotel nicht viel. Aber das Frühstück hat uns nicht zugesagt. Wir hätten uns mehr Früchte gewünscht. Außerdem war der Kaffee, der gratis war, nicht gut. Ein Capuccino oder Espresso hätte eine Zuzahlung erfordert, was wir sehr seltsam fanden. Einen entsprechenden Automat gibt es eigentlich in jedem Hotel, und der kostet normal nichts.

I will live here next time in Costa Rica.
Pros:

The staffs are so nice! We stayed here on our first and last days. Since we had too much luggage, we left them at the hotel when we checked out the first time and picked them up when we came back the last day before the flight. The staffs handled everything perfectly. The food was also delicious. The environment of the hotel is great—we came to Costa Rica for birdwatching, and we saw so many birds right here on the property!

Cons:

No

Fantastic stay, great staff, and good birds!
Pros:

The trail system through the gardens is a real plus for birding. The bar and restaurant were exceptional.

Cons:

The noise from the adjoining roads can get loud. Nothing that a pair of earplugs can’t fix, but be aware.

We hebben een goed verblijf gehad.
Pros:

Het huisje- de kamer is gedateerd, wel schoon. Het zwembad was erg mooi. Het hoofdgebouw met het restaurant is keurig, rustig en schoon. Het eten was heerlijk maar wel erg grote porties. Prijs netjes.
Het terrein is netjes onderhouden met mooie planten en bomen.

Cons:

de badkamer

Céntrico y cómodo
Pros:

Muy bien ubicado, el personal fue super atento y muy amable, incluso después de la hora de salida nos dejaron guardar las maletas por unas horas antes de que saliera nuestro vuelo. Tenían café 24/7 disponible de forma gratuita.
Gran experiencia.
