I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean, but they could use some updating to meet modern standards, especially considering the price. On the bright side, I loved the easy access to everything without encountering stairs, including the thermals. The service was top-notch, with incredibly helpful staff who were pleasant and friendly. The location was great, allowing me to explore all that Arenal had to offer, particularly the hot springs and pool area. The dining options were varied and tasty, though there were areas for improvement. Overall, a good stay with some room for enhancement.
