The property needs proper cleaning and during the night, you’re all alone in the middle of nowhere. No A/C and the windows doesn’t have any screens. Mosquitos enter your room freely.

Not a 3 star hotel at all. For the nearly $100, I would expect to pay maybe$ 30 for something like this. The sheets on the bed were stained. The cabinas were tiny compared to the way they appeared on Expedia. It didn’t feel safe. No hot water. No bottled water offered as represented on the site. Turn down service?? Wifi stopped working around 7pm. So disappointed, I don’t recommend staying here.

This place was beautiful and quiet. The perfect spot if you plan on visiting Rio Celeste as it is just across the street. The only issue is there is no hot water and wifi is very weak and only available in the restaurant.

Unterkunft liegt wunderschön direkt beim Eingang zum Nationalpark. Die Zimmer und alles ist sehr sauber - Das Personal spricht kein Wort Englisch und hat kein Interesse einen Weg zu finden die Sprachbarriere zu überwinden. Internet funktioniert sehr schlecht, im Zimmer hat es gar keines. Von 3 Frühstücksmenus war nur eines Verfügbar
