Guest Reviews

Laura Aniela (2/5): LLEGUE AL HOTEL Y ESTABA CERRADO, EN MANTENIMIENTO - Se pagó el hospedaje mediante la aplicación, al llegar al hotel estaba cerrado, en mantenimiento, perdí mi día entero de vacaciones buscando donde hospedareme, tengan cuidado, afortunadamente hotels me ayudo
Ken (8/5): Very good -
Bell (7/5): For 5 people you can’t bet the price for a quick stay overnight. - Being in the centre location,it was very noisy at night.
Heather (7/5): Good - Great location Hot in rooms and smelled very musty. Toilets didn't work well.
Diane (8/5): Very good - Great location
Rahel (5/5): Passable -
Fiona (7/5): Our stay in La Cascada - Some of the staff were friendly. We were given towels, there was a bathroom and a fridge That there wasn't a kitchen to make breakfast. There was no window in the room.
Anabelle (10/5): I just don't like the area. - Less crazy people out. I don't like the place I did it for my friends.
Anne (8/5): Great! - It was very central and we had a great balcony to read on and look at the park across the street We liked everything.
Alejandra (9/5): Great location! - Location; staff is friendly.
Piper (3/5): Misleading. Claustrophobic and not very clean. - Good location. Surprisingly comfortable bed/good nights sleep. Air conditioning. Our room had no window and was very small and claustrophobic. The walls were so thin you could hear the street/cars like they were in your room. It wasn’t very clean, there was hair and dirt in the shower.
Luise (8/5): Would reccomend - Great location at the back of the central park. Good value for a basic double, which was what we booked. Bathroom was fine, room was clean. Nothing
Amy (9/5): Superb - Location on the plaza. Easy access to New Years eve celebration.
Maximilien (4/5): Disappointing -
Jose (9/5): Superb -
Mark (9/5): Superb -
Konstantina (5/5): Dirty sheets, rooms with no windows and dripping ceilings - The hotel was in the centre of the city. However, since the resort is huge and you should use transportation for everything this is not a actually a pro. The sheets were dirty from the beginning. After the first heavy rain the ceiling started dripping water. We asked for replacement but we were given smaller room with NO window at all. The staff wasn’t really at all concerned or helpful.
Jakob (7/5): Good - Great AC, clean rooms
Carlos (8/5): Very good -
Diogo (8/5): Very good - Friendly staff.they have laundry service No air conditioner
Rachel (7/5): Great location - Location was perfect and central. Good value for money. Room was clean. The room had no windows and you could hear everything and everyone outside.
Wai (9/5): Superb -
Lee (7/5): Good - We booked 2 single beds and got a room to ourselves (only 2 single beds in the dormitory room). There is no kitchen
Krista (6/5): Pleasant - Location was good. Pretty quiet. Could've been cleaner, bed wasn't very comfortable, wifi was pretty bad.
Noé (6/5): Pleasant - For a good price (11 dollars) you have a bed and hot shower. Thats was nice. There was nothing more than a matress in the room. No blanket, no towels...
Craig (10/5): Exceptional -
Ester (7/5): Good - Great location next to markets restaraunts and excursions stands There was no ac and the room got veryyyyyyy hot and didnt smell very nice
Tyler (10/5): Exceptional -
Natalia (7/5): just fine - It’s a very simple, just the basics hotel. it was relatively clean (bedsheets and towels were clean, bathroom could’ve used a wipe down). the location was nice. hot shower. it’s fine because the location is good and it’s clean enough but don’t expect much. the management/staff/reception area. DO NOT BOOK ANYTHING with them. there are much better deals elsewhere. also, they’re unorganised. I booked a transport with them and almost wasn’t picked up because they forgot to call the guy. And this is a frequent occurrence for this hotel from what I heard. I guess this place is fine as just a place to sleep if you don’t expect any relevant recommendations or help from the front desk.
Gary (3/5): Poor -
Emma (7/5): La Fortuna - Basic accommodation good for a 1 night stay Very noisy with people going in and out during the night
Vittorio (5/5): Cheap and fine for a night or two. - Price, location and personell. very small windows allow little to no fresh-air ventilation of the rooms without opening the door to the corridor. Very hot even with a fan.
Ayden (7/5): Good -
Katie (8/5): Good value for money right in the middle of town - Great location and friendly staff. It was pretty noisy. Even with ear plugs, I struggled to get to sleep. People were talking loudly in the hallway and doors seemed to be constantly slamming. It would be nice if the staff imposed some time of noise curfew.
David (7/5): last minute trip to la fortuna, found this place, good value, good location but could do with some tlc! - very central.. next to the square where all the tours can be found! noisy, broken remote button (ch+), water dripping sound from ac of other rooms! and NO HOT water if there is no sun!
Eliska (8/5): Very good - location quiet during the night nice receptionist hot and clean shower no real kitchen for backpackers
Benjamin (5/5): Passable -
Claudine (8/5): - La proximité de beaucoup de services.
-dns- (7/5): Good -
Bonneau (10/5): best price/quality ratio in the area and the staff is super nice ☀️ -
Harriet (8/5): Good value, central location - Excellent location in the centre of La Fortuna where you can walk everywhere Comfy bed En-suite It’s not luxurious in anyway but for the price and location it was great value.
Carla (10/5): Great location, super clean, comfortable place to stay - Very well located near the central park. Everywhere is super clean. A very warm welcome from the owner. I stayed in a dorm room, although I was the only one there. It was spacious and I love that the room had a table and chairs, and hooks and clothes hangers, and fans - and no bunks! Good value.
Regina (10/5): Best service in La Fortuna - The location is perfect, right in the La Fortuna Center. The room was clean and comfortable as well as the whole hotel. Above all, the staff was great. My friend and I received the same room though we asked for it last minute. They also gave us many usefull tips, so we could enjoy two days in La Fortuna to its fullest. In generall, everything was great. Maybe just, it would be good to put a night table and a shelf into the room, i.e. some space where you could put out your stuff.
Julie (7/5): Good - Big huge room and friendly woman at reception In the description in italian it said there was a shared kitchen but they didn't have one (and neither the place or booking did take responsibility for it!) The bathroom did had the best smell
Alan (2/5): Very poor - Not much to like I actually tried to find another place to stay but it was only 2 nights anyway No communal kitchen, no coffee no breakfast. No wifi in the rooms. You lose it as soon as you leave the reception desk. I asked the reception desk to make a local call for me, they had no phone. Got stuck in the shower and had to crawl under the door. Outlets in the dorm are 6 feet up on the wall so you can't charge your phone. Staff were pleasant but not helpful or forthcoming with tour information, bus schedules, etc.
Andrei (10/5): Exceptional - Great hotel location, in a beautiful city. There are no such moments, except that I didn't have much time, to live in this good place.
Ariel (1/5): A nightmare - The view Don't go there!!!!!! You have rooms with no basic human living conditions. They don't have air and oxygen!!! The window go to a fruit shop next to it and other Rooms don't even have a fake windows!!! It's horrible The stuff gave me other room with a window it was terribly noisy from the main street.All my room was shaking from trucks and motorcycles
Greg (8/5): Great location and helpful staff - Great room at a decent price close to the city center. The aircon was definitely a plus. The staff were also very nice and helpful in booking my hotel transfer. There was no hot water whenever I tried to take a shower, so had to take all my showers with cold water.
Douglass (3/5): Poor -
Matt (8/5): Very good - Good location great staff!
Ilaria (8/5): Very good -
Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
Kamil (7/5): cool place to stay if the price will stay same - main center quiet terrace public toilets should be clean more often
Jasmin (7/5): Good -
Elena (6/5): Pleasant - Cheap room in the center of La Fortuna. Room had fans, and it’s wasn’t hot at night. Good bathrooms, and a kitchen available downstairs. Wifi was good. I liked hanging out on the balcony, but except that there is no common space to chill and meet people. The room had tiny window, no lockers or place to put your luggage, so it was always messy with three people staying at the same time. Kitchen is in the basement, usually all the plates are dirty, and fridge was full of old food and didn’t smell nice. Ah, tonns of mosquitoes in the kitchen too. Anyways, I could make some coffee anytime I wanted, and that’s the bonus. It’s ok place for a night or two, if you only come back there to sleep.
Priit (6/5): besides hot water and kitchen, I still liked this hotel. - ok location, wifi, spaceous room. no hot water in a room, it came only sometimes for few minutes. maybe you find hot water on the public shower in corridor. extremely ugly kitchen, like in old chinese action movie.
Emre (10/5): Exceptional - In the center, so clean, comfortable like hotels, just go and stay
Scott (8/5): Traditional Tic@ Hospitality - We had a wonderful time. We visited La Fortuna years ago and since we’ve been back, many things have changed. We liked Cascada because it gave us the experience we had before; a modest and humble place where you see true Tic@ hospitality
Verified traveler (8/5): - O hotel eh mto bem localizado, bem no centro de La Fortuna. O dono do hotel eh atencioso. O quarto era limpo, amplo e confortável. Parecia que havia sido reformado recentemente.
