Will definitely stay again

The location in the heart of La Fortuna town is a winner! It’s also in an intimate neighborhood setting. It’s perfectly clean. Very well kept as you’ll see in the photos. Front desk staff always with a smile. Breakfast was made to order and good. Typical Costa Rican and familiar options. Small portion but filling. Ask for more if you wish. Safe area. Walk out to the Main Street day or night.

Wonderful Stay with Outstanding Service, 2nd visit this year. Our stay was nice, quiet, and peaceful. The customer service—especially from Daniel and the rest of the staff—was excellent. I truly appreciated their attentiveness and responsiveness. I had a small incident where I accidentally left my sweater behind as we were checking out. To my surprise and appreciation, the staff reached out to let me know and held it for me until I could retrieve it. That level of care really stood out. The rooms were clean, the daily breakfast was great, and the cooks did a fantastic job. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience. We definitely look forward to staying here again in the future. If you’re looking for something simple, quiet, and clean—with genuinely great customer service—I highly recommend this place.

Clean and Convenient Stay in La Fortuna

I had a great experience at this hotel! The room was a bit small, but it was extremely clean and well-maintained, which made it very comfortable. The location is excellent—right in the heart of La Fortuna’s downtown. It’s super convenient to walk to restaurants, shops, and tour pickup points. You really can’t beat the access! At night, the sound of motorcycles can be a bit noticeable, but it’s totally understandable given the central location. It didn’t bother me much and was a fair trade-off for being so close to everything. Overall, a great value for the location and cleanliness. I’d definitely stay here again!
