"Unit is very clean, in good, newer condition. Conveniently located but hard to find as it lacks prominent signage to indicate you're at the right place; and has no "front desk" to check in at when you arrive which is problematic as its just a house in the midst of many others. There is a bar/club nearby that goes til 2:30AM each night. Pack ear plugs. The A/C worked well. Good base of operations for visiting the stites. "

"Loved this backpackers! Super cool rooms, and the view is excellent looking straight at the Arenal volcano! Awesome pool and bar right on property and downtown is so walkable from the front of the property! "

"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"

"The reception was very nice, it felt very safe and clean"

"Great hostel situated in a nice neighbourhood, 5 minutes walk from the centre including the supermarkets and bus terminal (the centre is frankly not as pleasant as the suburbs). Rooms have secure key codes, and lockers are situated in the communal kitchen which is large, clean and well equipped. Everything was good. Would recommend."

"This place is CLOSED yet hotels.com keeps offering it online. I booked through hotels.com as part of my trip and when I got their and the hotel was no longer in operation, and it was a nightmare dealing with hotels.com. They are pushy and it is a mess. When I started demanding my money back, a pushy person who spoke broken English called to sell me ANOTHER hotel, but refused to give me my money back. I am realizing hotels.com is a racket."

"Despite being a little mix-up on room type, Adrian (the owner) did all he could to make it right and I had a very pleasant experience. Their hospitality was amazing and the room was comfortable. I had to work one afternoon and the internet worked great. The lounge/common areas were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything you would need. The only thing I would recommend is that if you book through a 3rd party (like Hotels.com) to call and confirm your room type in advance. "

Hotel Magic Mountain SPA & Conference center

5/5 Excellent

"The property staff were very nice and accommodating! We had a volcano view from our hotel and it was amazing. Also very close to tourist attractions. Parking is tight but the staff were helpful in guiding us when parking. The only not great thing was the food in the restaurant. We had to eat there one day, due to pouring rain and it was not good at all for vegetarians. "

"This was by far the best resort we’ve ever stayed at. Everyone is super friendly and welcoming. Tony, from TreeTops Grill, always went above and beyond. He was always so kind. Lenny, our housekeeper, always brought a smile to our face with her cute towel decorations. This will be our go to resort! There is so much to explore and do at this resort. "

Volcano Lodge Hotel & Thermal Experience

5/5 Excellent

"Such a beautiful property! Absolutely loved staying here and experiencing this area of Costa Rica. The room was nice and clean with air conditioning. The property it self was stunning with all the plants and walking to breakfast was peaceful every morning. The included breakfast was delicious! They switch a few things up each day which was nice and even had someone making omelets or waffles. The hot springs are in multiple areas and one has a swim up bar attached which was really relaxing. Did not use the sauna but also saw that on the property. Over all very lovely staying here and everyone was very kind. I would go back!"
