10/10 Excellent
"What a cool hotel! We arrived and were met with a bellhop who took our luggage and we were able to check in early. We stayed in the deluxe room and it was lovely! There was a beautiful little garden with a fountain, comfortable beds, a spacious shower, and the room was clean! Sometimes in Costa Rica you find hotels that have some insects but not this place! Beautiful architecture! What a historical building it almost makes you want to cry! We had breakfast, lunch, and dinner at the hotels restaurant and each meal was lovely. We felt like royalty in the old Victorian style house. We loved the hot tubs on the roof and also did some yoga in the exercise area. All areas were clean and beautifully decorated with tropical plants. We were only here 2 nights but enjoyed every minute of it! We will definitely be back!"
