Delicious Breakfast

I really enjoyed the breakfast served at the hotel, which featured a small plate of fresh fruit, eggs, and toast. It was wholesome and just what I needed to start the day right! The view from the restaurant was also a great plus, adding to the experience.

Comfortable Room

The room I stayed in was quite spacious and comfortable. Although there was no air conditioning, the fan worked well enough to keep the room cool during the night. I appreciated the mosquito nets provided, adding to the sense of comfort while staying in nature.

Great Shower Experience

I was pleasantly surprised by the bathroom. It had hot water with good pressure, making it one of the best showers I had during my stay in Colombia. The spaciousness added to the overall relaxed atmosphere.

Relaxing Pool Area

The pool area was a great spot to unwind after a day of exploring. Even though it could use a little maintenance, the relaxing atmosphere and overall tranquility made it a perfect place to catch some sun while enjoying a refreshing dip.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, enjoying clean and comfortable rooms that offered a cozy retreat after a long day. The staff felt like family, always ready to help out. However, the dining hours weren't quite accommodating for early birders, as breakfast starts too late for those with morning activities. The location, while beautiful, did have a bit of noise at night, which might bother some guests.

The hotel has some mixed aspects—while the rooms are adequate, the ambiance feels a bit outdated and musty. The staff went above and beyond to help, especially when we went on our dawn tour. I loved the peaceful atmosphere that lets you enjoy nature right from the balcony. However, the breakfast could certainly use improvement, especially for early risers like us.
