Everyone was very friendly, and all the places were very clean and well kept. The kitchen could get a bit smelly when food was stuck in the drain for a day or two. The toilets could also be difficult to flush. However, for the price, very nice. The views from the pool were incredible!! Felt very lucky to help them finish out their season.
As a climber I’m pretty used to “roughing”it. I’ve stayed here for 3 weeks now and I think it’s important to share my experience.
In my entire time here the woman’s bathroom has not had hot water and management has taken little interest in addressing it.
The bathrooms are filthy most of the time. There is poop on the walls and curtains at the time of this review and the common cooking area is always shambles.
Speaking with other climbers who have been here longer they also mentioned the cleanliness, lack of hot water. Management has showed a complete lack of interest.
After moving to El Sendero the difference in cleanliness could not be more obvious.
If you care about having hot water after a long day of climbing or showering with poop on the bathroom floor and curtains don’t stay here.
I did not stay there but went multiple times to eat over the course of a week. In short, avoid this place for food, you have much better options in the area. It's overpriced, inconsistent, and doesn't taste great most of the time. They have sick margaritas though, so props for that. And the people are nice.
Great friendly staff and cool community: they have shared common kitchen and a lot of hang out areas. The restaurant is a bit limited and don’t always have lunch to go options. Accommodation is great. But the share bathroom can be renovated or be kept a bit cleaner. Highly recommended.
I think this is place to stay at EPC. Great options whether you’re parking, camping or want a room. Fantastic food and very kind & helpful staff. They’ve been listening to guests for decades and implemented many things that climbers have asked for, including great Wifi! They put together a care package for a guest at La Posada while I was in the states. They even do an amazing job with special requests, on short notice! You can find lodging closer to the Park, but I think it’s worth the extra hiking time for the atmosphere and all of the services. It’s nice to have so many other climbers in the compound! Meet people from all over the world, swap beta while cooking your own dinner, find a partner, etc. I can’t wait to visit again.
