Cute spot! Really nice, community feeling. Room was clean and tidy and had everything I needed. Pillow was comfortable! I particularly enjoyed the lounge area which made reading and relaxing while watching the rain perfect. Staff was really friendly and the pizza/pasta next door phenomenal. Easy walk into main area of La Fortuna.

This property is amazing. The garden is like a small tropical jungle. There are an open library area, kitchen, small swimming pool, and rest area. The room is clean. The only complaint is that you have to ask for a hair blower from the staff. Otherwise, highly recommended!

Wonderful and helpful staff! Very good breakfast and restaurant. My one complaint is the traffic noise. Though, this is a general problem in Fortuna.

This is a great location. The breakfast was delicious. It rained the whole time so we didn’t get a chance to visit the pool but it looked nice. I didn’t like the showers. No water pressure and wasn’t very warm. Overall, great value for the location!

Overall: We had a good stay here.
Cons: We got a room right next to the main road, so the noise was a constant factor.
The wifi did not work in the room and you had to go to the pool area for access.
Pros: The breakfast was very nice.
The staff was very courteous and accommodating.
You can have pizza for dinner in the same place where breakfast is served and get a discount.
Close to most attractions and lots of other dining options.

The rooms are super cute here and the restaurant attached is nice, great food. It's right outside of the busy part of Fortuna and really easy to get around walking, taxis, shuttles or rental car. If you do have your own car there's gated parking which is a great feature. Everyone was really nice and helpful.

Nice quiet stay
Wonderful stay here. Great location. The hotel was clean and comfortable. Loved that there was a common kitchen and laundry room and outdoor seating. Staff couldn't have been more helpful. Super friendly and welcoming. Would stay here again next time without a doubt.

Fine But For Noise
The noise problem really brings the place down. You can hear everything in neighboring rooms and every vehicle that goes down the street. The price is reasonable, the rooms themselves were fine, the staff were very helpful, and the free breakfast was good. It also has some nice common spaces.

We stayed at this property for four days. The checkin process was smooth and the staff at this hotel was excellent. As soon as we checked in the hotel, the bathroom flush was broken and the water was everywhere in the bathroom. They had someone come in and fix the issue. Again the same thing happened the next day and we had to call the service person to come in and "fix" again. The day before we checked out the hotel, staff asked us to shift our room to a different room since they were over booked and it was easy to shift us from our current room. We did oblige the request as the staff was nice and didn't have much choice and it was holiday season. Overall, the stay was okay and the staff was pleasant and the location was convenient. The management should look into fixing the property and better managing hotel bookings during the peak season.
