We booked day-of after a change in plans and were just looking for a cheap and decent place to stay overnight. We were pleasantly surprised. This place is adorable. No frills, but the room and premises were clean, and staff was friendly and helpful. They served a delicious, made-to-order breakfast. No A/C wasn't a problem as the temperature dropped at night. Walkable to town for dinner and drinks. Check in and check out were easy.

Mountain Faro is a simple, clean, and well-located property, with a good breakfast included. Yes it is up a hill, but you are in Monte Verde and everything is up or down a hill. The staff, led by Lady, are lovely, welcoming, and so helpful - including recommending restaurants, helping to arrange tours, and arranging transport as needed (for tours, or if you just don't want to walk the hills). I highly recommend it.

Mountain Faro Hotel was a beautiful place to stay. Very nice simple breakfast. Very easy check-in! The parking spot was a bit tight but that is the only downside to this Hotel. It is within walking distance to restaurants nearby. I would recommend staying at this hotel! Thanks for a pleasant stay!!!

Great bargain
The family that runs this place were very kind, friendly and helpful. They were slow to respond to messages. The room is as described, rather small with few flat surfaces to set things. The room had a sewage smell that was resolved by keeping shower drain covered and sink drain closed and airing out with window and door open. The breakfast was cooked fresh at the time we chose and was very good. A coffee pot is available, bring your own coffee & small filter. Also bring your desired soap and shampoo. As many places in the area, be prepared to put toilet paper in a trash can, not flushed. It was a great bargain hotel, clean and within walking distance of a commercial area, if you are in good condition and can handle steep hills.

A beautiful stay at a lovely family B&B.
A lovely little stay at Mountain Faro. The family are so helpful and friendly, they really can't do enough for you. They helped us book trips and transport(for the same price as anywhere else). They gave us some good recommendations as well. The breakfast is simple and great- fresh fruit, eggs on toast, fresh coffee and juice. The rooms are big, the beds are comfortable, with a lovely shower that has great water pressure and is nice and warm. The wifi is also really good. For the price, i cant imagine this place could be beaten. Especially considering it has a couple of lovely reataurants within touching distance.

Nice place. Helpful service. Breakfast is pretty much from 7-9 am. This town has a lot of steep and less than ideal streets and limited parking. The property access requires a steep climb to get to an unpaved street. The property has a wonderful view when it is clear. Simple, clean updated room with nice bathroom and hot shower with good water pressure.

This is located in a quiet neighborhood. This is a family run business.The hostess and her three kids are very courteous and friendly. The breakfast was very good and was made fresh every morning after checking our interests that morning. I strongly recommend staying there if you ever visit Monte Verde.

The price is right
This was a family run small B&B. They were curteous and helpful. The room was no frills, but cute and clean. It had a fridge, nice large bathroom. No A/C or ceiling fan though. You couldnt beat it for the price. It is on a winding neighborhood side road, but close to restaurants in this quiet cute town. It was perfect for our visit to the Monteverde rain forest. It included a traditional Costa Rica breakfast.

There didn't seem to be anything for temperature adjustment in the room and we needed to have breakfast a bit earlier as our tour left only 10 mins after breakfast started and this can't be the first time this happens yet the girl acted as if this was such on inconvenience for a request to have it 10 minutes earlier. The room was very clean and the restaurant nearby (in walking distance) was great. A bit far from other things if you don't have a are rental and are walking.

The property wasn't fancy but was just what we were looking for. A clean room with a super comfortable bed! And the customer service was excellent! Breakfast was made to order for us every morning, and Lady our host went over and above to make us feel happy and comfortable. She offered to arrange a couple of tours for us and as promised, got them at a discount. So take advantage of this if you are planning any guided tours!

This is a family run business that really does a great job in accommodating clients. The place is very clean, has a great breakfast included and is quiet in the evening. A little difficult to find as it is tucked away in the town but just put in Waze and it takes you right to the front door. Thank you to all the family!!!!

Lady Faro was very hospitable and helpful. We needed a Doctor/ Pharmacy for our son and she called ahead for us and let me know where the different types of MD offices were. Excellent breakfast. Room was very clean. Excellent place if you have a car. A bit of a walk to the downtown/ restaurants if you did not. Thanks !!
