The Arenal Country Inn was a wonderful place to stay! It is conveniently located to the town and the room was very comfortable! It could use a few more hooks to hang clothes and someplace to put suitcases instead of the floor. But overall the room did meet our needs and held our family of four nicely. I would request to have the bottles for body wash and hand wash filled up since we ran out of body wash and it was never filled. The breakfast was absolutely delicious and we enjoyed it daily for 8 days! The staff is very friendly and very helpful. They helped us book a tour and it worked out beautifully! The restaurant next door delivers and we got to enjoy pizza next to the pool. La Fortuna was great and this place is very conveniently located and having breakfast each day really helped us make the most of each day there !!

The property is clean and well maintained with a very large pool area. The location is just outside of town making it a bit more quiet. Like much of CR, it sorely lacks comfortable seating. The room had a couple of steel ladder back chairs, even the pool settees are uncomfortable with nary a cushion in sight. They offer a nice breakfast with the best hotel coffee in CR.

Room was clean, beautiful property, convenient location. Beds were not very comfortable, pretty hard, but overall fine. The staff is incredibly kind, helpful, and accommodating. Note that washer/dryer is advertised but that is incorrect, they send out the laundry for a price and it returns next day. Daily breakfast was always very good. Would have liked to have coffee in the room and there was no option to have coffee if you don’t make the breakfast hours (unless purchased from front desk)

Staff was friendly, room was decent, shower was decent. Overall, good offering for the price. Breakfast wasn't the best, and the pool had a somewhat stale smell (although we never swam in it). Otherwise, very good.

We stayed 7 nights. The property is nice and clean, close to everything, healthy breakfast, nice staff. The reason I leave 4 stars is that there are NO LAUNDRY FACILITIES on site. You can get this service for an additional charge or you can search for other options outside the property.

Installation de plomberie à moderniser

Very pleasant stay and beautiful surroundings, close to the city. However, it would be important to install a mixer tap for the shower. The mixer is an outdated system and absolutely not practical. In addition, the quality of the meals served for delivery by your partner restaurant is deplorable.
