Very comfortable and relaxing stay in a lovely quiet part of Monteverde, away from the busy areas.
Pros: Lovely well-appointed apartment in beautiful surroundings, looking out onto a well cared-for garden. We had to check in at the reception desk at the Spanish Immersion Language School, but that was not a problem for us. In fact it was very interesting to learn a little about the courses the Language School runs there, allowing people from all over the world to improve their Spanish Language skills. We enjoyed having self-catering facilities, and we were particularly glad to have the very convenient laundry room facilities near our spacious apartment. From our first contact with Miguel at reception, the lovely friendly cleaning ladies (who only spoke Spanish, forcing us to improve our own language skills), to the friendly gardener there, we had great service with more than a few smiles.
Cons: Some aspects of the apartment needed some updating, for instance, the French doors (ie main entry door) did not lock properly from inside. However, we were not too concerned as the apartment was within a lockable compound, with keys for the garden gate, and the door leading to our car parking spot. Still felt safe and secure.

Pros: Clean rooms, quiet place Wifi is quite bad, parking is too small (for 2 cars), the check-in experience is not pleasant, you need to go to CPI for payment. I think will be better to pay before you arrive to avoid waste of time and chats.

Perfect option if you want some autonomy and space (cooking, laundry...etc)
Pros: We were very satisfied with this accommodation: it was great to have a whole apartment for us, with the possibility to cook (eating in restaurants in Costa Rica quickly leads to financial ruin!), and to do our own laundry instead of having to pay for crazy expensive laundry services. The bathroom was the comfiest of our entire stay in Costa Rica, and the garden was pretty. The staff was super friendly and helpful, and they made up the apartment flawlessly every day. In terms of location, we were a little further from the beating heart of the area with all the bars, but we were at walking distance from one of the trails and just opposite a popular sunset watching spot.
