Hotel adequate; Restaurant less so.

This place is not a bad option. It's a bit over-priced. The pool is nice enough (3 ft deep!) & the staff is helpful. The lighting is terrible--ours had no cover so it felt like an interrogation. No bedstand lighting, harsh & insufficient ceiling lights. It's pretty depressing, frankly - à la cheap roadside motels.The rooms are clean enough, although it may be time for a bit of a spruce up. The location is fine--and the town has many dining options, on which you'll depend, as the food at this hotel is just not good (but you can't walk to them--it's a five-minute drive). Pro tip--avoid the horrid breakfast buffet (I mean, really bad!) and ask the waiter to prepare an omelet. It was very good. But, terrible toast & all the margarine you can eat. I begged for butter, but was told by the staff that they didn't have any butter. But, one day, a magical employee who actually gave a damn brought me "the last three tabs" of butter. I thanked him profusely. Apparently, the restaurant is known for it's wood-fired pizza. While it's true that they did use a wood oven, it was without question the worst pizza we EVER had. Chalky, flat crust, pasty tomato sauce and about three pounds of not-good cheese. I asked for the jalapeños, only to learn that they were PICKLED!! Seriously?? pickles on pizza, and in a country that probably grows more jalapeños than any other produce?? Again, an embarrassment.

This is our first trip to Costa Rica & our 3rd lodging. We started in a beautiful villa in Punta Islita, a condo near Playa Conchal & this Inn. We love the traditional vibes of the Inn. We are in a bungalow with 2 bedrooms/2 baths that can accommodate 6 persons with a kitchen, living & dining area. Has a washer/dryers Love the cleanliness & the open floor plan. You can see Arenal Volcano from the reception area. Erica in front desk has excellent customer service. We arrived at 1:15 to catch a guided volcano tour. Our pick up is in another hotel because somehow the Inn wasn’t listed as a pick up place. Erica offered to call the company so we can be picked up at the Inn. Fantastic. She also facilitated to store our luggage in the office while in the tour. But it turned out our bungalow was ready. We were able to check in before 3pm. The Inn is well-maintained & clean. Our bed was very comfortable, towels were new/newer. Grounds are well kept. There’s definitely “pride in ownership”. It has a nice restaurant on site. Our waiter was attentive, food was very good (had dinner). Wish we could stay here for at least 3 nights to see more wildlife & highlights of the area but we leave for Manuel Antonio Park in the afternoon for a guided tour on Mon. The Inn is so close to town. I highly recommend this Inn.You won’t be disappointed.

The hotel is well located. The restaurant is good, and the staff is very friendly. As for the room, the bathrooms are uncomfortable, cramped, with half doors and labyrinthine entrances. The pool is 10 times smaller than it looks in the advertising photos, and only five people can fit in it without losing privacy.

Great for family with teens

We stayed in the 2 bedroom / 2 bath villa for 2 adults and 2 older teens. It was perfect for us - lots of space and close to the pool. The king and 2 queen beds were comfortable and each room had an a/c unit. So handy to have laundry in the unit! Loved having a delicious breakfast included; fresh fruit, pancakes, rice & beans and more. This resort is an easy drive just outside of La Fortuna and it was a quick drive to our activities like hanging bridges and hiking and the Fortuna waterfall.
