Dreams Lodge Orosi, hotel in Cartago

Located in Cartago and only 11 km from Jardin Botanico Lankester, Dreams Lodge Orosi provides accommodation with mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking.

Jessica was knowledgeable and a great host. The facility was as the pictures described, very simple but very cute as well. We had a cloudy day so we couldn't enjoy the view as much as we wanted but it does promise as described. Breakfast was hearty. The location was walkable to the town square, restaurants etc and 10 minutes from the hot springs, 20 from the ruins.

    The room was spacious and the view of Orosi was nice . The property is a bit quirky with lots of levels and many interesting outdoor spaces to use . For the most part it was quiet . The location was good and within easy walking distance of the small town of Orosi and it's amenities. The host was very sweet and tries very hard but the property did have a few issues.

    Wow! This Casa is like a fairy tale house ! Beautiful , cozy, and comfortable, very quiet .Berna is an excellent host..she speaks a little English... much much better than I speak Spanish .. great place to stay for a night or a few days. Her casa is far enough away from the city center to have the feeling you're in the countryside but close enough to get there quickly by taxi .

    It was a great location with a most pleasant host. Jessica gave good advice about the sights innige area. For breakfast you have a view on the vulcanos and you are even provided with binoculars to watch the mountains and birds zipping around.

    Very nice host, extremely clean flat, close to the center but quiet. It is a pity that we stayed just for one day.
