From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed. The room was great and spacious. It does get cold at night, but there is a portable heater in the room. The staff was literally a text away. I didn't want for anything. John was very pleasant and a joy to talk to. I will definitely put this on my hotels to stay at again.

Rooms were clean, breakfast was great with a variety of quick items to grab for breakfast including fresh fruit, oatmeal, pastries, and coffee/tea. Location was perfect…5 minutes to the national park! Some improvement areas: entrance area to hotel/porch could be cleaned up of tools and pet items for better curb appeal. Also, I know it’s a rainforest and thus very humid, but finding a way to decrease the humidity in the rooms would make a more comfortable stay. None of our damp/wet items dried and the fixtures were rusting.

This is B&B, not a hotel. There were some things which needed fixing (signage, bathroom repairs, and some outside items). The room was spacious and hospitable. Met the host when we were coming back, soaked from a hike amidst a surprise rain and asked if we could dry our clothes. He was friendly and accommodating, though the washer/dryer was not an option for guests. Very kind and helped us a lot. Honestly, I liked the come-and-go breakfast options and shared kitchen for little things. Homey, sometimes a little more than I like, such as throw pillows which are a touch item I don’t need, with cleanliness in mind. Good value for the area. Driveway maintenance would be helpful for those arriving in the dark or managing non-SUV vehicles on rainy days.
