The experience was really nice, the hotel is a 5 min drive from the national park. The room was pretty clean, however the bed was not incredible it was a pretty normal bed king.

Go to El Árbol de la Paz, Tenorio trail, and Rio Celeste where locals swim sometimes. There is nowhere to shop there, if you want your own food shop for it before you get there.
