Lo conocí desde que no había nada en el cafetal y la baja al puente aún era de pura tierra. Me da gustó que sigan con el mismo espíritu servicial de hace más de 20 años. Sin duda una estancia con las 3B. La zona de camping es increíble.

Excelente lugar para quedarse cerca de puente de dios. Es un lugar sencillo, nada lujoso, tiene lo básico para pasar la noche. Está muy cerca de la entrada a puente de dios, súper recomendable si quieres quedarte cerca para aprovechar el día. No hay muchos servicios cerca, pero tienen restaurante, considerablemente bueno

This place has an excellent location, great customer service and recommendations. We arrived a little late and the kind man in charge guide us to the camping and let us know everything about the area. We enjoyed our time here and would come back in the future! Is really close to Puente de Dios and is not as busy.
