Central, walkable, clean, affordable

We appreciated the walk ability to just about everywhere in La Fortuna. Did a few tours through the front desk and they were excellent. The top terrace was a nice place to hang out in the evenings for a quiet drink. Breakfast was quite good, nice to have fresh fruit, and coffee available as well. Not 5 star but perfect for our needs.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This was a great spot close enough to everything for it to be walkable but still quiet. Being right in La Fortuna, all of our tours were able to pick us up straight from the hotel. What really set it apart was the staff, particularly Daniel! He really was a phenomenal and warm host and made our stay special. He gave us great recommendations for everything from tours to hot springs to dining and he was just a joy to talk with. Even though we didn't have a view to Arenal, we had a great and clean room, and the big shared covered patio with recliners and a lovely view was wonderful. Just because I look for this in reviews, the beds are pretty firm, but it was like that literally everywhere we stayed in Costa Rica. The galle pinto breakfast was good! It was pretty clutch for those early morning tours- although we did get a little tired of it every day, and was recommended breakfast at Café Raúl Castaño which had some of our favorite food the whole trip (Jalapas was also amazing, highly recommend). We would definitely stay here again.

There are nice common areas to sit, they offer a good breakfast, water and ice. This is the first hotel we have stayed at in Costa Rica that had water available and bottled water starts to add up. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. We were able to check in early and they stored our luggage after we checked out.

Really enjoyed my stay. It was my first time solo traveling and I picked a spot central in the town of La Fortuna. This lodge is close to many great restaurants and it’s in a quiet neighborhood. I felt safe in knowing there was a buzzer needed to get into the building. The reception is very helpful and communicative. Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends ☺️.

Great location in walking distance to the town center. I had a spacious, bright and well thought out room on the upper floor with spectacular vulcano view from my balcony! Staff was amazing...Mariela and Keyna were always smiling and super helpful! I used Uber to get around...very convenient if you don't want to rent a car! Would stay there again without hesitation!
