Elissa, Spokane Valley

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
We had a nice time. Key takeaways: this location would be best in the dry season. No heating or cooling and no screens on windows. Fireplace is extremely smoky, you will smell like you were camping. The wood is also very damp and hard to light and keep going. Very friendly staff. Grounds are beautiful when the sun is out. No real hot water, we had to heat water on the stove since the hot water was only a few degrees warmer than the cold. Bed was very comfortable and had a fluffy blanket on it which was nice since we were very cold. The elevation keeps it cool here. The rooms are pretty dark, very common in a lot of countries. You will find bugs in the cabins, there are lots of little cracks for them. Overall we enjoyed the stay, wish it hadn’t poured rain nearly the entire time.

Casitas muy cómodos, ideal para familias

Un lugar precioso. Casitas muy cómodos y acogedores, ideal para familias. Muy buena atención. Cerca de San José, sin embargo muy largo del "hustle and bustle" de ciudad.
