Buena relacion calidad precio en La Fortuna
Pros:

Entorno: rodeado de naturaleza, con zonas comunes con jardines muy cuidados, vimos monos aulladores en arboles cercanos. Piscina comunitaria
Habitación: amplia y con baño completo y balcon
Desayuno incluido: tipo buffet con variedad y en zona ajardinada muy bonita, desayunando mientras ves colibris

Cons:

Ubicacion: un poco lejos del centro, necesitas coger el coche para ir a cenar, algo que no nos importó, porque preferiamos dormir en una zona mas rodeados de la naturaleza

Pleasant stay with great breakfast
Pros:

Excellent breakfast and overall good service. We even got upgraded to a bigger room due to Booking.com’s Genius status. The owner helped us organize laundry service which was done overnight.

Cons:

If you’re a light sleeper, this hotel might be a bit too noisy because you can really hear everything from the hallway. Also because of the way the rooms are designed (bathroom with glass door), the light from the hallway is visible from the room.

Normal
Pros:

El desayuno estuvo muy bueno

Cons:

El único detalle es que en la habitación en la noche, habían como unos bichitos que parece se metían por la puerta que da a la terraza. Eso le molestó un poco especialmente a mi pareja.

Nice peaceful place near town surranded by nature
Pros:

The location was incredibly convenient, with a beautiful view of the volcano. Surrounded by lush greenery and a variety of birds, we could hear and see monkeys in the mornings, which made the whole place feel so peaceful.

The room was basic but comfortable, with a clean space and a very comfortable bed. We had booked a double room but were given a twin instead. When we asked about it, we were told the double room was smaller, so this was supposedly the better option. The bathroom had a spacious walk-in shower, with shower gel and shampoo provided (though no conditioner). There is no door to separate bathroom from bedroom. just a glass door for the toilet ( no much privacy )

There is also a nice-sized pool, and guests are given lovely soft, colourful towels to use.

We really enjoyed the breakfast, which offered a great variety of options including eggs, cereals, pastries, fruit, and more. The lady serving breakfast gives eggs, sausage, hash browns, etc. in small portions, but don’t hesitate to ask for more!

Cons:

Bathroom and bedroom are connected with no door .. there is only a glass door that separate the toilet ( so no much privacy ).
Room was not new and I was told by the lady at reception that they don’t allocate the new rooms to people who book via booking.com
