Great view and very helpful manager!

Selim was WONDERFUL! Helped us arrange tours and transport around town. Warm, friendly and extremely helpful. Breakfast was good. There were sloths hanging out in the trees around the hotel when we were there. Room was clean had a fabulous view. A place to hang and store clothes would have been helpful.

Great staff, especially owner Salim, who was friendly and helpful, as was his son. Booked tours and transport. Rooms were simple but fine and comfortable. Better value than expensive resorts nearby.

Great hotel and great staff! Very helpful and nice. They helped me with my tour reservation in the morning. Nice breakfast with a spectacular view on Arenal volcano. Hotel is very conveniently located from all activities and La Fortuna town. All rooms have a great view at Arenal volcano.

The room had a nice view, My issue was that the hotel ( i would consider it a motel) had not signs, no name in front of the hotel or anywhere. we had to guess by the pitcures we saw as to where the hotel was. When asked about it we were told the rains took the sign down. This place is more for local tourist.

Beautiful view in the heart of Arenal

Selim was a wonderful host! He waited up for us to arrive late at night so we could check in. He gave us great advice on what to see in Arenal. The breakfast was great and view beautiful. It’s probably best suited for a backpacker or student. Location is good, too.

Het uitzicht op de Arenal vulkaan is fantastisch. De kamer is net genoeg, heeft wel een update nodig. Het personeel doet wat het doen moet, maakt geen echt contact. Jammer dat er niet wat meer bevlogenheid en inzet aanwezig is bij deze mooie locatie.

Amazing!

This location was perfect! It was away from the hustle and bustle of downtown, but close to everything we actually wanted to experience. The family that ran the hotel were so helpful and you couldn’t beat the view! Wildlife everywhere.
