I wouldn’t stay here if they paid me. It is freezing and no heat in the rooms. Toilet, shower broken. They gave boards with nail instead of log for fireplace which burned out in a few hours and we were freezing all night. Woke up with head cold. Toilet is broken and doesn’t stop leaking water. Shower doors have to be lifted to move since the slider is broken. Bed is too small (6 ft - 85!kg) with either the head banging on board or feet hanging off. On plus side, the staff is excellent.

Good friendly family run hotel.
Our stay was good and we had a good time. Initially we had a problem with Credit card payment, and several attempts did not go through. Then there were multiple payments against the card. With the help of Hilary, this was resolved quickly. The restaurant was great and the location very peaceful. Recommend this hotel for access to Poas Volcano. The hotel is very well situated for access to the important venues to visit.

The owner was so friendly when we checked in. He showed us our room where we had hummingbird feeders hanging right outside so it was cool to see some species that we've never seen before. The room was clean and the breakfast was made to order. We also ate dinner at the restaurant the night before. The location is a 15 minute drive to Poas volcano crater which is why we stayed at this hotel. It was a one night stop after flying into San Jose on our way to La Fortuna. It was definitely worth the money.

Poas La Paz revisit.
Stayed in this Hotel before several years ago because of it's location and restaurant. Near the Poas volcano and La Paz Water Fall Lodge which we visited. During our stay experienced several tremors from a nearby earthquake not serious though.

Good day!! I was not able to get there. I looked for a hotel close to my point of interest,”Pozas Celeste’s.” The hotel said that it was located 7.63 miles from my point of interest, however it was not. I drove about 65 kilometers to point of interest, I used Waze and Google maps. Once I arrived to my point of interest, waze and Google maps said to drive 50 miles more. We asked the local about the hotel, and they never heard of it. We were never able to get there.

Owner was cordial. We checked in early with no problems. We loved the breakfast. Bed was comfortable and room was spacious. Shower was hot. We had to use the fireplace to heat the room. Romantic!

Check in was a bit challenging with a non English speaking personnel. Room was beautiful….cabin like feel…with a mini electric fireplace and a coffee maker. The plants surrounding the hotel were gorgeous. Hummingbirds frequented the feeders placed below our second floor. Complimentary breakfasts were excellent…choice of typical vs Continental. Had a very pleasant three night stay.

Perfect location and breakfast delicious! The rooms could be upgraded as the rest of the hotel. It gets very cold at night so a heater could help a bit!

Location was perfect, just 20 minutes away from the Poas volcano. They were also very helpful as I asked to get my medicines stored in a fridge and lent me one for my room. Unfortunately, the TV wasn't working. They were willing to put us in another room but it was too late and the other room was too cold. It's a bit chilly there despite the heating but it was okay. The shower was very bad, the knob was too high to be moved and I'm not even sure it was moveable, but the water was going too far and it was also not directing water properly. I liked the little balcony but it wasn't private, luckily we had nobody next door and could enjoy sitting there. There are beautiful hummingbirds coming drinking water as they put hanging hummingbirds feeders especially for them. The restaurant was excellent, they made efforts to accommodate my needs and had a very healthy dinner there.
