    Great hotel right under the waterfall.

    Since I'd been here 7 years ago, a new building was put up between the downstairs rooms and the waterfall, cutting off the view and the sound. The older downstairs rooms could use a refresh but they're just fine.

    I absolutely love this hotel. It's right by the Virgin waterfall and the thermal baths (2 blocks). It's on the edge of town so it's very quiet. The downstairs rooms have hammocks. I liked that you have to enter the front door with a code; it felt very safe.

    I loved that it was so close to the waterfall. I could hear it softly at night and it was lovely. The staff are all super nice and kept the whole building so clean. I also loved that because Baños is small, this hotel which looks like (on a map) that it's on the edge of town, is actually only a block from the main action. It's quiet at night which I appreciated.

    The fridge is a bit loud in the night and the hot water varies somewhat in temperature however everything else is perfect.

    Fantastic bed, very nice room. Great location, very helpful owner and great staff. Very clean and wonderful balcony. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to be back soon. Baños has many more things to offer we didn't explore yet and we could not imagine a nicer place to stay.

    check in- they wanted you to pay with a service i didnt have and couldnt load onto phone- we eventually worked something out with zelle- could have been clearer on that.

    they dont have meal facilities there but restuarants are next door. nice location- quiet but near all the town activities- the hot water pools are a 2 minute walk. very nice hosts - rooms are large and exceeded expectations.

    I wish the hotel had coffee, either a machine in the room or at reception. I went to the hotel next door, so that was acceptable. You have to be asked to be let in and out of the property. Not ideal, but understandable for security reasons. My guess is the hotel wants the utmost safety for the guest. So, it's not a complaint, but just an observation.

    The beds were very comfortable, and the location to the thermal hot springs was excellent. The view of the waterfalls was an unexpected surprise. The owner was very personable and booked tours for me. He went above and beyond with customer service.

    Breakfast was really good. Very quiet and peaceful place. Host super nice and yes speak English. Incredible view from hotel to mountains (the whole Banos was uuuuuh...). 50m "down" maybe best pizzas what ever got. 5min walk to the center, really easy to find every time back from the center. Perfect massage in hotel by Wendy. Really hope that it is possible to come back one day to Banos (even distance is 10000km!?), and sure stay in this hotel!!

    The location is perfect. just a couple blocks from downtown and far enough away to avoid the commotion when ready to relax with a front and center view of the Santa Agua waterfall. The sounds of the waterfall from the room are amazing!

    This place is perfect. Better than the pictures. The view is outstanding. The owner is more than accommodating and kind. They make you feel like part of the family here. Jr Suite very clean, modern and maintained very well. Secure and safe feeling area.

    I would advice to bring earplugs because of the waterfall. It sounds like heavy rain all night, you hate it or you love it :)

    Great value for money. The room was nice, breakfast was great, and the host was very attentive and shared a lot of information on how to get around Banos. Great location

    The internet service is extremely slow. The major issue was checkout And involved not only a $16 surprise charge that booking did not alert me to, but also they had no credit card system for payment. After several tries at using paypal I made a 30 minute trip to an arm to pay an extremely $5 in fees to pay in cash. I cannot recommend either the hotel or booking.com as a result , because of the misquote in price and the inability to pay with a credit card at checkout which was an option that I chose on. Booking.com

    The view and location. The staff was great at first the major issue was checkout.
