Secluded location (right down the road from the Monteverde Cloud Forest) with beautiful views of the mountains. Walked into town, which was quite a hike but hiking was the reason for my trip to begin with! Santa Elena is very picturesque with plenty of amenities and catching a cab ride back to my hotel was no problem. Wish they would have had a safe in the room, but other than that i would highly recommend!
