We stayed at La Choza Inn last November and had a great experience. The room was very clean, and perfect value for money. But I would recommend this place mostly because of the staff, and Yuaner especially. When we went on the rafting tour (great experience!!) the guides told us they had to take us to another river, because of... More

The staff at La Choza was very helpful and friendly and made us feel right at home. (Yuaner at the front desk was especially helpful and went out of his way to help when my father got sick). The prices are very reasonable for what you get which includes free internet, free breakfast and a nice common kitchen - being... More

I had a lovely four night stay at La Choza Inn. I immediately felt right at home, and lucked out with a shared room all to myself with a view of the volcano. The staff and the family that runs it were all very friendly and helpful. It's a rustic place, which I mean genuinely and not as a euphemism... More

The inn was a great choice. Not too expensive and the service was great! It was within walking distance of desafio adventure which was great since we decided to go with them for the tours and we didn't regret it. Eagle tours is also run out of choza inn and I would highly recommend using them for the volcano hike... More

Eagle Tours runs its operations out of this "hostel". My room was $25/night and was clean and adequate for a solo traveler. Not sure you would want to bring too much luggage - you would feel crowded. But the convenience of being within walking distance of restaurants, banks and town for that kind of money is great. I stayed 3... More

We stayed in the Choza Inn for 2 nights and, since it was raining nonstop we ended up spending days with the staff and in the hostel, The kitchen was nice and there was cable TV which helped us alot during the rain. The staff speaks perfect English and were very nice.The rooms were clean and comfy.

My boyfriend and I took a jeep-boat-jeep (best way to go) from Monteverde to La Fortuna without an idea of where we would stay. During the second 'jeep' ride our driver and I chatted in Spanglish. I mentioned we were looking for a room for a few nights on the cheap-mid range so he took us to La Choza. (It... More

Everything about the room, comfort and services is top notch but what sets this hotel apart from others is the friendly desire to assist in the enjoyment of the Costa Rican experience. When I thought about river rafting Daniel was concerned about my safety so I did not go on the most rigorous trip. The atmosphere is like Cheers "where... More
