Clean, basic/adequate, reasonably comfortable room with a SPECTACULAR view of the Gulf of Nicoya in the distance. Owner José is congenial and accommodating; will gladly help with local tourist arrangements.
Room (“cabina”) lacked AC and heat. At
mountain altitude, AC wasn’t needed, but a bit of heat would’ve made cool, damp evening more comfortable. Water in shower and sink was only lukewarm; encouraged a QUICK wash-up. Single bulb in ceiling fixture, no table lamp for reading/writing. No room-darkening shades, so sunlight will help you wake up.
No dining facilities on premises, but owner Jose’s mother will cook a basic breakfast ($8 pp), which will be delivered to your room. More than a hostel but clearly not a fancy place; we enjoyed our one-night, modestly-priced stay while focusing on the many nearby attractions in the Monteverde area.
