Large, clean room. Fridge, microwave, coffee maker and coffee and all the dishes needed to eat in. Several choices for breakfast and they were good. Restaurant on site that was busy for dinner. Friendly staff. Beautiful grounds with lots of birds and a great volcano view. Quick drives to town, coffee and chocolate tours, waterfall, hot springs and grocery stores. Great place for a couple of nights or longer.

Very close to the tour meet up location through Red Lava Tours. Drivable to dinner spots but quiet enough to see so much wildlife around the property! Our tours were early so we couldn’t try breakfast that started at 7 or 7:30. Room was clean and perfect for what we needed. LOVED sitting out on the balcony while we were there

Nice place overall. Room was clean, nice view from our little balcony. However, we had 2 breakfast included with our booking per day but the staff there didn’t know so we missed it on our first morning. Also, nobody explain to us the way to get hot water from the shower when we got there, so we got cold water everyday! We were explain how to get it at the next place we’ve stayed. Seems that it pretty much the same ‘technique’ everywhere in the country. I would still recommend if you don’t have to get interactions with the staff. Not very present anyway.

Hotel was really nice and quite. It was away from the town but if you have a car, then no issues. Uber pickup was just 5 mins away if needed. We could see the Mountain right from our room in the morning. Hotel staff were really nice and accommodating.
