Guest Reviews

• Sharon (6/5): Not the standard we were looking for or thought we would get - Good location and kind host. The room we booked smelled very badly of dampness or mold, one air conditioning did not work and there was a huge gap between the photos and reality. The host offered a different room but it meant we had to split up and the other room was smaller and not what we expected when we booked the property.
• ELENA (10/5): Exito asegurado en tortuguero - Ubicacion: en el centro de tortuguero, acceso a locales, restaurantes, supermercados, playa, senderos y puerto andando desde el alojamiento Apartamentos con cocina totalmente equipada, amplios y luminosos, con todo lo necesario Personal muy atentos, nos ayudaron con el transporte hasta tortuguero y nos recogieron en el puerto, nos asesoraron con las actividades a realizar alli que fueron todo un exito, guiadas por dos chicos muy implicados, profesionales y que te transmitian su pasion por la naturaleza del lugar, totalmente recomendable Nada
• Felix (8/5): Für 2 Nächte in Tortuguero gut - Das Zimmer war sauber und das Café hatte einen schönen Ausblick. Die Lage im kleinen Ort war gut, da alles sehr schnell (< 5 Minuten) erreichbar war. Das Essen im dazugehörigen Restaurant war zwar lecker aber teuer. Wir hatten leider kein warmes Wasser in der Dusche.
• Lieselotte (7/5): - Die Lage ist hervorragend und die Zimmer nett eingerichtet. Die Zimmer werden während des Aufenthalts nicht gereinigt. Das Internet funktioniert in manchen Zimmern sehr schlecht.
• LUIS ORTIZ SASTRE (8/5): - Hicimos la entrada por el mismo embarcadero del hotel-restaurante. El personal nos atendió amablemente. La ubicación próxima al embarcadero de Tortuguero, desde donde salían nuestras excursiones. La habitación que nos ofrecieron estaba en el primer piso, sobre el restaurante. Había música fuerte al llegar. Por fortuna, en la fecha en que fuimos, cerraron muy pronto y pudimos dormir perfectamente. La habitación era pequeña.
• Melanie (10/5): -
• Anabel (7/5): -
• Iñigo (7/5): - Habitacion amplia y moderna.Me inflaron rueda del coche que tenia baja en el parking Pavona Señal wifi debil
• Tine (8/5): Prima plek - Ruim en comfortabele kamer. Koffieapparaat en waterkoker aanwezig
• Annet (8/5): - De ligging van het hotel en het restaurant wat erbij zit. Goede airco mogelijkheid tot koffie en thee maken. Personeel vriendelijk ook bij aankomst genoeg info ook direct 3 activiteiten geboekt. De kleine kamer, er zat zwart synthetisch beddegoed op het bed.
• Florian (5/5): Bof - L’emplacement Le personnel responsable et celui qui gère les activités
• Juan Miguel (10/5): Bonito, seguro y tranquilo. - Ubicación y limpieza Paños
• Guest (9/5): -
• Nicolas (1/5): FUYEZ CET HÔTEL - FUYEZ À TOUT PRIX CET HÔTEL ! J’avais réservé deux nuits pour mes parents de 75 ans. j’ai essayé de joindre l’hôtel à plusieurs reprises sans succès. J’ai fini par appeler le café voisin qui m’a donné le numéro du gérant. Ils n’ont pas précisé que les horaires de la navette bateau étaient très contraints pour arriver. Dès lors, j’ai indiqué que mes parents arriveraient pour leur seconde nuit : le gérant a annulé la réservation (sans me le dire) et mes parents l’ont appris en se présentant à l’hôtel lorsque la femme de ménage leur a dit que leur chambre avait été louée à quelqu’un d’autre… Lorsque j’ai recontacté le gérant, il n’a pas répondu à mon appel et a menace d’appeler la police car je me montrais insistant !! A l’heure actuelle j’ai été débité de la moitié du prix de la réservation soit 70€ pour un hôtel l’entrée a été refusée + l’aller retour en navette bateau pour rien. Le gérant est odieux et malhonnête

• vaneferla (9/5): -
• Daniel (8/5): Top für ein paar Tage in Tortuguero - Das Holte liegt zentral in Tortuguero und auch mit Gepäck gut zu Fuß am Bootsanleger zu erreichen. Das Zimmer ist nicht besonders groß aber gut ausgestattet (Kühlschrank, Wasserkocher mit Tee & Kaffee). Das Hotel gehört mit dem Budda Cafe zusammen. Dort kann man sehr gut essen. Frühstück gibt es nicht aber in der Umgebung sind genügend kleine Restaurants. Das Hotel schickt eine Guide zum Anleger der die Gäste zum Hotel führt und den Check-In macht. Natürlich bietet dieser Guide auch diverse Touren an ;-)
• Wilfred (8/5): -
• Céline (8/5): - Logement fonctionnel et bien situé au centre de Tortuguero.
• Janne (9/5): Fijn verblijf in Tortuguero - Wij hadden het appartement met 1 slaapkamer; de eerste trap op naar boven. Ruim, eigen keuken, leuke aankleding en welkome airco (zelfs 2, één in de woonkeuken en één in de slaapkamer. Het appartement was goed uitgerust en de douche was warm. We hebben 2 leuke tours gedaan vanuit Buddha, de avondtour en boottour. Het restaurant is ook leuk met heel vriendelijke obers.
• Theo (9/5): -
• Merel (10/5): Geweldig - De locatie was geweldig. Het restaurant bij het verblijf was absoluut het leukste plekje. Helaas hadden wij geen warm water. Maar gezien het kleine (en mooie) gebied, is dit iets waar je gewoon rekening mee moet houden.
• Lourens (9/5): -
• Stan (8/5): - Price quality is excellent for this place. Easy to reach, great host and good food.
• Mark (6/5): Cheap and cheerful stay in a great location. - Great location near to La Pavona boat dock. Air con was very welcome. No safe, nowhere to hang any clothes, room was never cleaned in three days and we had to ask for clean towels.
• Philip (7/5): Great location and helpful team - Friendly staff Nothing
• Jack (8/5): Appartement met kleine kamer en slechte wifi, midden in het centrum! - Wij kregen appartement “Barcelona” toegewezen, wat bereikbaar is via een lange trap. Lekker stevig bed. Fijne kussens. Badkamer met fijne regendouche. Gelukkig hadden we de koffers niet bij, want die zouden we niet kwijt kunnen. Koelkast en tv met Netflix aanwezig. Goed werkende airco. Afgesloten terrein. Beneden zit de Budda Bar, waar je gezellig aan het water wat kunt drinken en eten. Daar is de wifi wel goed. Aardige bediening en prima eten. Kleine kamer, smal bed, slechte wifi op de kamer, voordeur inbraakgevoelig en ondanks aangrenzend café, geen ontbijtopties.
• Cornelis (9/5): -
• Nancy (10/5): Great place to stay and enjoy Tortuguero. Many good places to eat too. - The location was perfect. Central to everything. Clean and spacious room. We were in the Africa room. Nice view of surroundings. Daniel checked us in and he is the best. Very friendly and he was also our guide on the excursions we did. He was extremely knowledgeable and showed us many different plants and birds, lizards, and we saw sloths also.
• Romane (7/5): - Chambres confortables Odeur d'humidité dans les chambres
• Daisy (8/5): -
• Kristian (8/5): Vi havde et par gode dage på Budda Home. Der var problemer med aircondition, som blev udbedret allerede første dag. Venl - Dejlig altan på Uruguay. Rengøring i køkkenet og køleskab var ikke i orden.
• Marinus Adriaan (8/5): Leuk hotel, goede locatie. - De locatie midden in het dorpje. En de vriendelijkheid van het personeel is uitstekend. Eigenlijk niets, wel kleine puntjes van kritiek. De lamp in de spiegel was defect, zeepdispenser was leeg, wij zaten boven Budda Cafe daardoor wel wat geluid vanuit het restaurant (stopt om 21.00u) maar dit was voor ons niet storend.
• MANUEL (10/5): - Perfecto para pasar unos días en Tortuguero, limpio, todo renovado, al lado de todo, muy recomendable Nada en concreto
• Sven (7/5): -
• David (8/5): Good value for money, quiet central location - Location Friendly manager Daniel who sorted some tours for us.
• Rossy (7/5): Como hotel de paso esta Ok. - El pueblo de Tortuguero. La habitación asignada fue muy básica, colindando con una Bodega y zona oscura.
• Stefan (9/5): - Beautiful location
• Dick (10/5): Hele fijne plek net alles wat je nodig hebt. - Hele fijne plek met alles wat je nodig hebt. Een van onze beste plekjes in Costa Rica. Ook fijn om koelkast te hebben en mogelijkheid zelf kopje koffie en thee te kunnen zetten. Fijn café ook met lekker eten en geweldig uitzicht op de lagoon. -
• MONIQUE (8/5): Séjour très agréable. A renouveler ! - Emplacement super bien. Tout était ok
• Martin (10/5): Great place in Tortuguero - Great place, the apartment with the terrace overlooking the canal was really worth it.
• Susanne (8/5): Overall OK - Great location – central yet quiet. The bed is definitely a plus - very comfortable, the shower had good hot water, and the internet connection was fast and reliable. The contact with the host (Daniel) was good before and during our stay. There is some room for improvement: the kitchen equipment could benefit from an overhaul , e.g. large coffee mugs or a third plate to prepare fruits/vegetables would have been nice, the kitchen tap splashes in all directions, and our room had a musty/moldy smell.
• Tom (10/5): Very central location and good value for money - The perfect location in Tortuguero. We had originally booked a lodge out of the centre but decided to stay more central as they are a long way out, only accessible by taxi boat. This place is located in the middle of the little street that is Tortugero, surrounded by lovely bars and sodas. Within walking distance to all the tour meeting points. The apartment was spacious, very clean and had a nice outdoor seating area. Budda cafe located over the street is also a must visit with great decor, an even better view of the river and extremely friendly staff.
• Marika und Mark (5/5): In die Jahre gekommen - Die Unterkunft liegt zentral aber das ist bei allen Unterkünften der Fall, da das Dorf sehr klein ist. Das Zimmer war groß und es gab noch ein extra Schlafzimmer., Wir hatten das Zimmer „Buddha“ im Erdgeschoss und haben uns dort nicht wohlgefühlt. Schon beim Betreten des Zimmers fiel uns der muffige Geruch auf. Das Zimmer hat seine besten Tage schon lange hinter sich, die Möbel sind alt und abgewohnt, alles macht einen leicht schmuddeligen Eindruck. Im Bad steht ein Fenster offen, das geht nicht zu schließen, da die Stromkabel hindurchführen. Wir waren nur eine Nacht dort, das ging auszuhalten aber für länger keinesfalls.
• Seymour (7/5): - The room was great and the location central but also very noisy. We were unlucky and were having a party and parade under our room, but the hotel was empty, so we asked to change room so we can sleep at night. However the guy responsible was really inappropriate for the role, he did nothing even though we asked a lot and insisted. He just did not care to help or do something. Eventually he did offer a room (it was already morning) and the room was really bad from the humidity so we just stayed at the original. It is a pity to have such nice rooms, but not professional stuff.
• Maria del Carmen (8/5): - En el centro del pequeño pueblo. A 2 minutos del embarcadero principal. Eso te facilita a la hora de poder moverte para comer, cenar o ver el pueblito. Las habitaciones son espaciosas, las camas cómodas. Daniel nos ayudó en todo. Superamable El agua caliente no va muy bien. Por el resto, ninguna pega
• Anja (9/5): - Waren das zweite mal hier. Zimmer Montana gross, einfach perfekt. ⁹
• Sophie (10/5): Parfait je recommande - L appartement était propre et spacieux la terrasse très agréable L organisation était parfaite de l embarcadère aux visites guidées Les guides Boa et Daniel ont été aux top
• Nicholas Rupert (3/5): - The room was great! Clean and comfortable. Toaster was not there The manager. He kept us waiting for 45mins and then made us rush to check in leaving our drinks and reading material behind to accomodate him. He then stopped on the way to casually buy a pipa. Took us to the room which was not ready so we waited till he got other keys. We would have stayed another night but were not encouraged. We went on to Junies where the welcome was warmer. The owner ? Chef ? Told us to hurry up sit down order quickly and leave when we arrived after our night walk for dinner. These guys are in the wrong industry.
• Isabel (10/5): Céntrico y confortable - Ubicación perfecta Faltaría algo donde poner las maletas
• Roeland (9/5): Fantastische beleving met de boot naar Tortuguero en de excursie in National Park - De locatie was perfect midden in het dorp en vlak bij de aankomststeiger. We werden daar al opgewacht door iemand van Budda Home die ons welkom heette en naar de accomodatie bracht. De kamer was ruim en schoon en de airco werkte goed! De wifi helaas niet zo goed en de stroom viel af ten toe uit maar dat gebeurt vaker in Tortuguero. Dat ligt niet aan Budda Home. We hadden een klein terrasje waar we toekans zagen. Er is geen ontbijt maar dat kan in het dorp als je terug komt van excursie. Wij hadden een sunrise canoe tour geboekt bij Boa. Heel aardige en bekwame gids met kleine boot! De avondtour via Budda geboekt was ook een aanrader. We hebben gegeten aan de overkant bij Budda home restaurant en de zonsondergang gezien bij El Patio met uitzicht over de rivier waar je ook lekker kunt eten.
• Klaas (8/5): Prima verblijf voor een paar nachtjes - Strakke, schone inrichting van de kamers. Uitgerust met airco, tv en koelkastje. Locatie vlakbij de haven van tortuguero. Receptie is beetje apart in het restaurant van iemand anders, waar je mag wachten op een kattenharenbank. Dekens en lakens zijn zwart zo kun je niet zien of het echt schoon is.
• sergio (9/5): -
• Florence (10/5): - Le calme, l'emplacement plein centre. Lits très confortables. Une super douche avec un vrai débit d'eau chaude, très appréciable !
• Katharina (8/5): - Ausreichend Platz, sehr nette Betreuung und Organisation der Touren, kleiner Garten vor der Tür, gute Lage im Ort Ausstattung der Küche ist minimalistisch, keine Ablagemöglichkeit für Kleidung (kein Schrank, keine Garderobe)
• Patrick (9/5): -
• lucas (8/5): Fijn verblijf, enkele verbeterpuntjes - De locatie is goed op de beste plek in het centrum van het dorpje aan de hoofdstraat, kamers zijn best ruim, de airco deed het goed. En de bedden zijn ook goed. De keuken was basic maar kon je wel prima een ontbijtje koken. Het was schoon maar in de badkamer lag wel wat stof. We hadden een kamer en het appartement. Het appartement was heel erg vochtig, en rook schimmelachtig. Kamer niks mis mee. Foto met balkon aan rivier hierboven is een beetje misleidend, dit is maar 1 van de meerdere kamers die ze hebben, waarvan de meeste achter het cafe aan rustige hoofdstraatje niet aan rivier. Wel heb je van zelfde eigenaar het Budda cafe er tegenover, waar je kan chillen aan het water en een goed restaurant ernaast met bovenverdieping. Een risico is dat ze geen eigen generator hebben, en als de stroom uitvalt (wat af en toe gebeurd) heb je snachts een probleem. Gelukkig bleef dat ons bespaard.
• Pagliaro (6/5): -
• Mary Lea (9/5): Best view of the river from the URUGUAY room. - Perfectly situated in Tortuguero townsite for access to tours, restaurants, and shops. Easy come and go via the street-side locked door. We spent 3 nights in the the Uruguay room (#5) on the riverside. This is the picture the hotel shows on its website but from what we could tell, there is only ONE room with this view. We got lucky and booked that room so we had a tremendous view and watched the birds on the river along with the water taxis and tour boats come and go all day. Really lovely at sunset. The kitchen has a microwave and a fridge so we could have our morning coffee and our breakfast at home. The bedroom was comfortable. The room has very efficient AC which made the humid days bearable. The restaurant-bar next door (El Patio) has an outdoor roof-top bar that blasted loud music until 2AM. Perhaps this is just a weekend phenomenon (we were there F / S / S) and perhaps it is not as bad for the other rooms, but in our room, it was disturbing. The ocean side of the island is walkable but you cannot swim or do any activities in the ocean - big warning signs about riptides.
• Emma (6/5): -
• Milou (5/5): Lekker basic. - De centrale ligging van het hotel was heel fijn. Je liep het terrein af en was gelijk in het dorp. Het is allemaal een beetje vochtig en oud. Daarnaast hadden we een lek in de badkamer van de kamer boven ons.
• Natalie (5/5): Excellent location. Highly recommen overall. - There was no breakfast included in my stay. Overall, loved the place - excellent location, comfortable bed. Couldn't get AC to go below 24, so despite the fan, it was very hot.
• Alexander (10/5): An amazing stay in a wonderful place! - We stayed here during our honeymoon, and they made it feel so special for us! The hosts were very friendly and warm, and made us feel immediately at home. We stayed in the Santiago room, which was beautifully clean and air conditioned, and really dark and quiet at night. Lots of wildlife is nearby, we saw a monkey and an iguana from the balcony.
• Claudia (10/5): -
• Fernanda (7/5): Agradable - Muy buena ubicación y limpio , cómodo tener un restaurante enfrente Demasiado encerrado,, las dos habitaciones q utilizamos , no tenían vistas y una de ella tenia accidentada la entrada y alguien de mi grupo se cayó y se pegó un golpe grande
• Giulia (6/5): -
• francesco (9/5): -
• Malte (10/5): - Sehr schöne und saubere Unterkunft mitten in Tortuguero. Die Unterstützung bei Unternehmungen ist ebenfalls klasse. Absolut Empfehlenswert: Kanutour durch die Mangroven.
• Monika (8/5): Fijn verblijf - Centraal en fijne kamers. Niets
• gianluca (6/5): -
• Gianluca (10/5): Un angolo di paradiso - Camera bella, pulita e accogliente. Struttura in un ottima posizione, al centro del paese in ottima insieme al corrispondente Budda caffè. Daniel, il manager, si è dimostrato estremamente disponibile ed accogliente. Con lui abbiamo fatto un tour serale a vedere la fauna notturna, veramente preparato ed appassionato. Bella la struttura ma le persone valide fanno sempre la differenza. Complimenti!
• Anja (10/5): -
• Carmela (10/5): Nice big, clean, and updated room in Tortuguero. - Clean spacious room, nice design, with plugs near the bed for charging electronics. Guides are very knowledgeable and hotel staff is friendly and helpful.
• Marco (10/5): -
• Delano (8/5): - Perfectie ligging midden in de hoofdstraat van Torteguero. Kamer was netjes en schoon! Wi-Fi was een beetje een tegenvaller. Werkte vaak niet (was wel op meer plekken op het eiland een probleem).
• CATHERINE (8/5): - Great! Would have been nice to have a window that didnt give onto a corridor
• femke (7/5): Prima verblijf voor een korte periode. - De locatie was top, gelijk aan de hoofdstraat. Verder een prima appartement voor een paar dagen en het restaurant wat erbij zit is erg goed. Wij hebben niks van de snelle internetverbinding gemerkt, gezien wij (bijna) geen internet hadden in het appartement. Ook de handdoeken vonden wij niet erg fijn.
• Benedict (8/5): - Preis Leistung gut
• Constanze (9/5): -
• Monica (6/5): Loud - The staff were lovely and the apartment was comfortable. It's centrally located. We were next to loud speakers for a three day party we were unaware of when we booked. There was loud music playing all night long for our entire stay. The place was shaking from the noise. I wish I had received some communication about this when I booked or when I reached out to them after booking regarding the weather, especially since I was travelling with an infant. I could have rescheduled.
• Christian (4/5): Einen Tag kürzer wegen dem Festival. Sehr laut, wenig kommunikative Besitzer - Gute Lage Sehr klein für den Preis, kaum trocken zu halten, Festival auf der Insel fühlte sich an wie als wäre die Musik im Zimmer. Unterkunft hat uns nicht vorab informiert.
• Slava (5/5): Abenteuerlich! - Gute Lage, unweit vom Anlegesteeg. Direkt ein gutes Café im Erdgeschoss. Die Handtücher, die bereitgestellt wurden, trocknen nicht richtig und stinken nach einmal verwenden. Es gab kein warm Wasser bei uns im Zimmer und es kam Wasser durch die Decke ins Zimmer. Der empfohlene Kontakt in La Pavona für das Boot versucht erstmal zu scammen in dem Hin und Rückfahrt für 20.000 Collones verkauft werden obwohl es günstiger ist. Gleiches auch für Parken, somit aufpassen bei Kendall.

• Lakerveld (7/5): Heerlijk. - Het is een fijne locatie midden in het centrum. Daardoor is het wel onrustig ‘s nachts. Hotel is schoon, maar wel oud. Op sommige plekken schimmel. Maar dat komt ook door het klimaat.
• James (7/5): I enjoyed the stay, but two things were a problem. - The location was central, and pretty. My issue with the stay was safety. I was locked out of my room on the last night, and I was met with aggression and accusation. There were a lot of bitter comments and muttering, "lucky anyone is here to help you". I simply left the key on the table for a moment, when I came back from a turtle tour. The doors lock on their own, so you have to have the key at all times. I don't know why you would choose accommodation if you don't like people. I think it should be a priority that people feel safe and looked after, even if they make a mistake. It's not a difficult thing to close the door without a key in hand, even after a week of no issues. But, if no one is there to help, and the contact for the hotel doesn't answer their phone, I think it's a huge issue if the owner reacts with aggression. This isn't an army barracks, it's a vacation. If you don't want to help people, I don't think this is a good business for you. There were kids practicing drums every night, for a party at the end of the season, and that was annoying. There was also a raccoon, or something that lived closeby, that continually would make noise by smacking at the slats of the air conditioning above the bed, which regularly woke me up at night.
• Daniel (9/5): -
• June (6/5): Falta de organización y seriedad. - Las habitaciones y la limpieza. Buena ubicación. No había agua caliente. Nadie respondía a las llamadas ni los mensajes. Informamos de nuestra hora de llegada por si había algún inconveniente y no obtuvimos respuesta. Finalmente, nos vimos desamparados casi a medianoche sin saber como llegar al alojamiento y la única alternativa fue pagar 150$ para llegar al hotel. El trasfer fue el único que logró ponerse en contacto con el alojamiento.
• DIEGO (9/5): Hermoso lugar y buena infractuctura - Alojamiento sencillo pero muy cómodo, ubicación ideal para realizar las actividades principales de tortuguero ( tour por los canales, avistamiento de tortugas verdes, entre otros) Quizás el ruido pueda molestar a la a personas que buscan descansar sin distracciones, pero el alojamiento al saber que está este problema pone a tu disposición tapones auditivos
• Johannes (10/5): Great place - Good place to stay was very clean and comfortabel. The place is very good you can go everywhere and its close to the main harbor. Cafe is right across with good food and drinks. Very friendly staff. And everything was managed well. Nothing
• Simina (10/5): -
• GLORIA (9/5): Muy buen alojamiento para visitar Tortuguero - El alojamiento está muy bien ubicado, en el centro del pueblo y cerca de todo, muy cómodo para ir andando a comer, a los tours, etc. Utilizamos 4 habitaciones y todas amplias, modernas, bien decoradas y muy limpias, estás en la naturaleza, pero con comodidad y a un precio razonable. Camas cómodas. WiFi ok. Desde el alojamiento nos recomendaron Travel Tortuguero para conocer el parque nacional y fue un acierto llevarlo organizado con ellos. Hicimos los canales y el tour diurno con Boa, el tour nocturno con Daniel y el desove de las tortugas con Alexis, los tres fueron magníficos guías. También nos facilitaron un contacto para el transporte desde el embarcadero de la Pavona a Tortuguero, que nos facilitó llegar y salir del tirón, evitando el "acoso" de todos los que intentan venderte un billete. La experiencia muy buena. Para los despistados, la playa de Tortuguero es para las tortugas. Se permite el acceso de 6 a 18h, pero está salvaje, hay mucha corriente y no recomiendan el baño. Por sugerir alguna mejora, se agradecería algún armario o estantería en las habitaciones para poder colocar la ropa y las cosas. La cafeteria Budda abre muy tarde, no puedes desayunar en ella, pero hay muchos sitios cerca.
• Nuria (10/5): Céntrico y muy limpio - Era literalmente el centro de Tortuguero, estaba muy muy limpio que para nosotros es muy importante y la habitación era enorme. El restaurante tiene unas vistas ideales y el personal fue encantador. Sin duda volveríamos.
• BEATRIZ (6/5): - El personal es muy amable y la ubicación es perfecta. No se podían abrir las cortinas de la habitación porque no había absolutamente nada de privacidad, por lo que siempre estaba bastante oscuro. Las sábanas de la cama tenían manchas.
• Mark (10/5): -
• Alberto (8/5): -
• Nadja (10/5): Very nice appartement - Het appartement was schoon, ruim en comfortabel. Ook de ligging in het dorp is perfect! Het éénpersoonsbed in de woonkamer was doorgezakt en sliep niet fijn.
• David (8/5): - La cercanía de todo Nos intentaron vender excursiones más caras de lo que costaban luego en las agencias
• Christian (8/5): -
• Marc (6/5): Bueno pero con margen de mejora - La ubicación, la TV, el restaurante con vistas a la laguna y la amabilidad del personal La limpieza y el mantenimiento de la habitación era mejorables. No ofrecen desayuno y, aunque tienen un restaurante bueno y con buenas vistas, creo que podrian ofrecer algun descuento o ventaja para los huespedes del alojamiento.
