We stayed here for two nights in early December. We stayed in a private room which had two beds and a small bathroom. The room itself was fine- nothing special, but certainly comfortable, quiet, and clean. The shower had hot water which was especially inviting after a summit of Chirripó. At night we could either hear rain or the river-... More

I've stayed here twice over the last four years. Overall, I've been very happy. Most importantly, the hotel is located close to the start of the Chirripo trail. The owner, Rohel, is very helpful with all logistics related to the hike. The price of a room includes breakfast, safe parking (including during your multi-day hike), luggage storage, and a hot...

I stayed here 2 nights while visiting Chirripo. The owner was one of the most helpful people I have ever encountered. He found us walking to the hotel from the park ranger's and drove us the rest of way, and gave us all the information we needed for Chirripo. He also gave us a lift back to the bus when... More

Climbing Chirripo was one of my main reasons to go to Costa Rica. Started email communications with the owner - Roel. I wanted to start the climb on Jan 1. He took care of all administrative matters, i.e. registering for the entrance to the Chirripo Park. I reach the hotel on Dec 31, he takes me in his car to... More

This is a great spot to spend the night in an outstanding location. It only takes a few minutes to reach the Chirripo trailhead or (even better) the Cloudbridge Nature Reserve from the front door. The owner, who is at the front desk most of the time, speaks english-spanish and is a tico! I love supporting a local instead of... More

We stayed next door but ate at Hotel Uran a few times over a period of two weeks and I would say that the food is very good for this town. Its a good place to grab a nice meal before or after you get off of the MT. It is also the first restaurant that you see when coming... More

Why do people rate 4 or 5 reading their realistic bad comments? The host is unfriendly, the rooms are extremely basic and small, just wooden compartments not even closing at the top of the walls. So you hear every noise. It's far overpriced compared to other places. For the hike the host tries to rent you old and wornout sleeping... More

The location just at the trailhead for Cerro Chirripo is good. The owner knows that, so his attitude is not the most welcoming. The walls don't close up to the ceiling so it's loud (many people get up from 3am to go hiking). The showers are clean, the rooms so so. The food was terrible, they served us a rotten... More

We heard our first "Pura Vida" from an old tico, who served us our first Gallo Pinto (for the "cilantro" lovers)! Was an good stay, clean, safe, close to the beginning of the parque national Chirrupo. Nothing really to complain, they let us put our meal into their freezer and we let them our luggage for safe keeping during our... More
