Perfecte kamers
Pros:

De ligging, de kamer en het zwembad zijn perfect. De kamer is zeer ruim. Het matras was fantastisch. De airco werkte goed en maakte weinig geluid. Er zijn koffie- en thee faciliteiten op de kamer en er is een koelkast en een kluisje. Het personeel was erg vriendelijk en we konden eerder inchecken.

Cons:

Het ontbijt is erg beperkt. Je krijgt kleine porties en er zijn continue dingen op zoals fruit of koffie/thee.
De kamer werd pas s middags schoongemaakt, terwijl de meeste mensen hier vroeg op pad gaan en s middags terugkomen van hun hikes.

Excelente
Pros:

Tienen un plus. ..
Al costado del hotel colinda con el río, y hay un sendero para observar ranas, lagartijas, aves, perezosos y muchas flores y plantas, fue muy agradable esa extra, fuimos a ver el anexo tanto de dia como de noche, vimos ranas verdes y las blue jeans, tucanes y nos encantó estar tan cerca de la naturaleza.

Cons:

La habitación nos toco en segunda planta, solo que mis papás son adultos mayores, se les complico subir y bajar.

Excelente precio calidad
Pros:

Tiene todo lo necesario, lindo, cómodo, limpio, cuenta con desayuno, estacionamiento. Vi otras opciones que eran más caras, este era mas económico y no le faltó nada. Superó mis expectativas.
También en el jardín se puede ver perezosos, ranitas.

Cons:

Lo único que encontré puede mejorarse bastante es el desayuno, si bien tienen opciones, son acotadas y quizás poco contundentes (si son ricos y frescos). Para los niños no hay opciones como yogures y cereales.

Great value
Pros:

The grounds were immaculate for a little tiny motel. There was a very cool small garden trail with beautiful flowers and frogs and lizards right next to the river just steps away from the pool area. It had a decent view of the volcano. The breakfast omelettes were simple and delicious, but the flies were a little out of control in the outdoor restaurant.

Cons:

It took us a while to realize there was a remote control for the AC unit.
