De ontvangst, de locatie, de vriendelijkheid en behulpzaamheid van de medewerkers. Ontzettend leuke plek aan de rand van het dorpje tegen de jungle aan. Zoals iedereen aangeeft, buideldieren, vogels en prachtige diersoorten terwijl je ontbijt. Het is echt een aanrader. Ik ben zelf een moderne natuurfreak. Ik hou van natuur, wildernis en dieren maar qua comfort wil ik liever niet op een matje in een klamboe liggen. Deze locatie biedt dat met een plek midden in de natuur maar wel het comfort van een prettige kamer en heerlijk bed. De ramen hebben horren tegen de insecten. De ruimtes zijn van tropisch hardhout maar van alle gemakken voorzien. Dus voor mij perfect, luxe en avontuur gecombineerd.

Niets!!!

"Hostal muy tranquilo, con un jardín encantador"

10.0

Pequeño hostal muy tranquilo, lleva bien su nombre. Rodny es un muy buen anfitrión, nos dio muchos consejos. Desayuno muy bueno y completo. La ubicación es buena, no muy lejos del centro caminando. Pero lo mejor es su pequeño jardín con colibris, guatusas, y una multitud de aves coloridos.

Por decir algo, la cama podía ser más cómoda

"The owner is the best!"

9.0

The owner is so kind. He helped us with everything we needed, and was available at all time. Gave us all the tips needed. The breakfast was very tasty and abundant, they even got me extra yogurt as I had asked for it. The area is beautiful with the birds and toucans, very peaceful and quiet, but also very close to everything.

Only thing is that it would be nice to have at least some shampoo in the bathroom, as well as a hairdrier available for use. All hotels should have one for their clients. A part from that, everything was great
