Balanced stay with some drawbacks
exclusive access park access well maintained hotel grounds sunrise experience falls experience detail attention water bottle iron request
The location inside the national park granted exclusive access to the falls outside regular hours. This allowed us to experience the sunrise without large crowds. The hotel grounds were well maintained and visually appealing.
Attention to detail was lacking . I requested an iron twice but it never arrived. Housekeeping replaced four water bottles with only one on multiple occasions.

bland food cockroach appearance
the location is amazing, granting exclusive access to the falls before other tourists arrive.
i was disappointed by the poor service at the restaurant. the food tasted bland and sometimes arrived cold. i also found a large cockroach in my room .
the check in was friendly. i stayed in a beautiful garden view room with an extra bed. it was a smaller room for three people. the extensive breakfast made up for the room size. i walked across the street to parque das aves and loved it.
i was disappointed with the massage i had. the therapist used too much pressure. i had bruises the next day.

Romantic Getaway by the Falls
cute staff soft pillows serene vibe
The staff seemed genuinely pleased to welcome us. I will always remember the Saira bird cocktail at the bar. Our room had very soft pillows and a serene atmosphere. The views from the hotel were amazing.
The hotel van service should be improved. Only one van goes to the park entrance every 25 minutes. If you miss it, you have to wait adding to the travel time to the park entrance.
