The Temple I, Mindo

We were staying in the first room that you come across when you enter. Our first impression was that it was a nice room - there are huge windows to take in the beautiful surroundings. Even the shower had a view. The room was spacious, there was a huge (unnecessarily so) closet, and two sinks with ample counter space. There were some spider webs and numerous bugs, but that is understandable in this kind of setting.  The breakfast was decent. There was eggs and toast with margarine, fresh fruit, fresh juice, cacao tea, and coffee. The location itself is very quiet as you're a bit out of town, but there isn't much you can really walk to easily.

Arriving at the property was a bit of a struggle since there are a few "Temple" locations in Mindo, and our GPS took us to the wrong one at first. Once we found the right location, there was no one there. We looked back through our messages on Booking, and they had asked us to message in advance of our arrival, but we had neglected to do this. We messaged that we were there, and someone responded that they would be there shortly.  Unfortunately, what we learned this night was that it was extraordinarily noisy. Our room was directly outside the kitchen area, so we could hear everything going on in there.  So much noise transferred from the unit upstairs, literally rattling the windows when people walked, as well as when people went up and down the stairs. We asked to switch rooms, and the next day we moved to the unit that was directly above us. The entire building literally shakes when you walk.  The upstairs unit was similar to the downstairs unit but a little less nice  - the bathroom shower was actually really awful, and there wasn't enough water pressure to shower. The sink area was smaller with only a single sink and more limited counter space. It still had the large but unnecessary closet. Both rooms had direct access to the wrap-around patio outside. It should be noted that you could see directly into the bathroom from the outside patio - anyone who happened to walk by could see in.  Our last morning there, a toucan landed right outside of our bedroom and we rushed outside to get photos of it. We walked down to the end of the deck and there was some definite movement underfoot. I'm not sure how close the balcony came to collapsing. We reported it to to the manager before we left. We booked on Booking which is supposed to show the price you will pay at the property, but we were charged an extra $10 to pay with credit card.

Ubicación

Super lodge tout en bois avec de belles ouvertures vitrées sur la nature en pleine forêt. Idéal pour bien démarrer la journée au son des colibris. Super déco. Bon petit déjeuner. Nous y serions restées volontiers plus longtemps.

Rien.

Przepiękny widok na zieleń, przestronny pokój, wygodne łozko, ciepła woda pod prysznicem. Z tarasu można obserwować różne ptaki, w tym kolibry i tukany! Bardzo miła obsługa.

Śniadanie mogłoby być trochę lepsze i bardziej urozmaicone

El lugar es fantástico, en una magnifica ubicación si cuentas con vehículo propio. Las habitaciones están bien, sobre todo la triple, muy amplia y con el baño dentro de la propia habitación. El desayuno está muy bien

La ducha no funcionaba. No solo no había agua caliente sino que apenas caía un hilo de agua fría. Para mi esto es suficiente para descalificar un alojamiento

très bon hébergement ; voir commentaire précédent)

chambre très agréable il manque quelques crochets pour mettre les vêtements surtout quand ils sont un peu humide et une chaise

superbe maison en bois située dans un très beau jardin espaces communs spacieux et hamac sur la terrasse accueil par une jeune femme très agréable situé à 1 km du centre bon petit déjeuner (. fruit, jus de fruit,, omelette, toast, café ou thé)

attention l’emplacement signalé par booking est celui de temple 2 il faut faire qq mètres supplémentaire pour trouver le chemin à gauche qui mène à temple 1 la personne qui prépare le petit déjeuner n’est pas très souriante ( on a parfois l’impression de l’embêter ou est ce seulement de la timidité???)
