"A true gem in the middle of the cloud forest. Super friendly people and great dinner options at a superb price. Juan and his sons are doing a great job. Cannot recommend this place enough if you are looking for a quiet place in the cloud forest. Some great activities close by: Quetzal watching your, coffee tour, a few local waterfalls and also 1 hour drive away the great trails of Savegre Hotel "
