    The view from the master queen suite was magnificent. Having a microwave oven, a fridge, and coffee and tea making equipment was very convenient. The location of the hotel was great - relatively close to Sabana National Stadium. It was also just next door to a really nice park and local restaurants to try out.

    We can't recommend highly enough staying at this cheap hotel. Overall, it's useful base for exploring San Jose attractions. The staff are understanding and courteous and deserve a 4-star rating. 11 minutes drive to the airport, it is located close to the Casino.

    The breakfast was top by Costa Rican standards. Fresh fruit, good local dishes. The rooms were clean and yet inexpensive for the location. Guarded parking spaces were available directly in front of the hotel entrance and the hotel was easy to reach.

    Every detail was perfect and I greatly enjoyed it. Every staff member was pretty friendly and exceptional. Its location in San Jose was particularly good, so close to common areas, and National stadium. There was an outdoor restaurant nearby.

    This place is situated in a charming boutique building in a convenient location, super close to the national stadium 🏟️.

    The hotel was chosen because of the free shuttle service. Fact is, there wasn't one. Interbus, which is still listed as a service from the airport, no longer exists. That you have to spend the 25-30 usd as normal. This is exactly what I wanted to save myself.
