The Golden Frog Inn

The Golden Frog Inn

10/10 Excellent
"I love it! It was clean, the staff was friendly and surprisingly spoke English very well, which was great for me as I’m not a Spanish speaker. The grounds were so beautiful with butterflies and hummingbirds all over the place. I didn’t go in the pool, but it looked very inviting. The complementary lemonade was great. The breakfast that was included went way beyond my expectations. It started as a continental breakfast, which was pretty standard, but then you can add your choice of other entrées as well. My pancakes were great. The rule from the room was spectacular. The bed was spacious and comfy. The bathroom was large and European style if you know what that means. I would definitely go back again on any future trips that I make to the Valley."
