Very good overall
The place is beautiful, well located near Poás volcano, in the mountain with a cute garden and view.
We stayed in a standard room the first night, a little bit old but comfortable. Second night in a dome ; the setup is beautiful but can be loud at night if windy or rainig and suite cold !
Breakfast was good, well prepared but small portion !
