Hotel Irazu
Entrance hidden at night due to construction. Better off staying at Holiday Inn next-door (it's a shared hotel). Perks: stunning pool & landscape, friendly, helpful staff. Disappointments: under construction, no free breakfast, poor room coffee, charge outlets not functioning, no frills/ run down rooms

8/10 Very Good

Everything was good except getting our bags into the hotel. There were carts available, but there was a small staircase between the parking lot and hotel, so we had to carry our bags inside the hotel and only then could we use the cart. Doesn't seem like a big deal, but we had many heavy bags and it adds up.
