    A Nice Stay
    • Leisure trip

    • Deluxe Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    The room was right by the road, so it was very noisy all night long. It made it hard to sleep. The restaurant was not open.

    The room was clean and was in a private area that I could lock. The room had a private shower with warm water. The area outside of my room was pretty with lovely evening lighting.

    The hotel was not only close to the aiport where you heard planes take off over head but worse next to the busiest road of traffic away from the aiport. Not the best place for a peaceful nights sleep.

    The owner was very friendly and offered help where he could. The breakfast was an amazing selection of fresh fruit, toast and spreads. I enjoyed having the outdoor garden space and pool.

    Rooms were not soundproofed and the noise of trucks on the street combined with aeroplanes taking off and landing nearby made sleeping difficult (fortunately the hotel provides war buds for blocking the noise 😅)

    With a late flight in and an early start the next day - the location was great.

    The first room doesn’t lock the bathroom and I ask to be moved to a room with AC and the room that I get was closer to the road and you can hear all the cars on the street specially the big trucks roaring their engines, the staff left some earplugs on the table but nobody told us, sounds unreal but is true

    The location is very close to the airport

    ridiculously loud. There is no insulation of indoor space to outdoor space. I could as well have slept on the runway or on the heavily traveled road in front of the hotel.

    Proximity to airport and rental car locations. Owner is a cool fellow worth talking with. Lots of stories....

    the real problem of this hotel is the lack of management: the owner is not able to communicate calmly and without aggression with customers. the guy at the reception doesn't speak English and is listless and unhelpful. it was enough to immediately give us the room that we had booked a month ago (deluxe double) and which was available, rather than offering us a dark room without windows.

    The position close to the airport

    The breakfast was wonderful! Fresh fruits with eggs and plenty of other options to fill your belly. The location was the absolute perfect place to stay if you are coming from or going to the airport. We would stay here again! 10/10 recommend. Henri (owner) was lovely and such a storyteller. The dogs and cat also made the stay feel more homey. The pool was lovely in the morning for a bit of relaxation before we had to leave.

    Alejandro and everyone were so accommodating, nice and made a great breakfast. It was far enough off the main road that it was quiet, I mean super quiet. The views of the volcano were stunning in the morning while eating breakfast, and the hot springs were immaculate. I would absolutely love to return to casa antigua if I ever return to La Fortuna.
