Staying at the hotel was a wonderful experience with breathtaking views surrounded by the lush forest of Monteverde. The rooms were spacious and offered great comfort, though they could use a bit more modern decor. The service was very accommodating, and I particularly enjoyed the delicious dining options prepared by an excellent chef. However, the location, while picturesque, requires some effort to access local attractions. Overall, it's a great spot for those looking to unwind in nature, even with a few drawbacks.
