Tiffany is so helpful for trip suggestions for local and nearby city like San Jose and Catargo. She help us find place for dilicious food, souvenir store, and place for coffee form CR. She also provide price info so we are assured. With affordablenprice, this place is 3 blocks away from market, central sqaure, and 5 blocks from bus station to San Jose. You can also take the bus to airport.

My room's only window was to the hallway which felt unsafe for a female solo traveler and the lamp didn't work and was CAKED in grime and there wasn't any toilet paper in the bathroom. Wouldn't stay again.

It was just a very simple place with not a lot of extras. We had no hand towel for the sink but there was a wash cloth hanging--wasnt sure if it was clean or not....but did have a few towels for the shower. The staff was amazing and communicated well prior to our arrival and were waiting for us when we arrived after midnight after our plane was delayed 3 hours. They were very helpful and welcoming. Breakfast was included and simple but delicous.

I stayed there for one night. Firstly the room has only a fan that barely works so the room is like a sauna. Also the sheets and pillow cases were all stained with blood and yellow stains which I found disgusting. Also don't rely on the breakfast, it's obviously a way to just chargre more without quality food. For the money we paid we could definitely find a better place.

The owner of the hotel and his family are very lovely and helpful. They organized a shuttle from the airport to the hotel in advance. We arived around 10pm and therefore, were very greatful about the service. We had a huge and very comfortable bed. Since we stayed only for one night, we can't say much about the area but we felt really safe. We even had the opportunity to rent a car from them in good condition for a very good price. We would definitely recommend the hotel and the car service!

Nice little place to stay for a few days while exploring San Jose. We called it our treehouse. Very close to everything, staff is very kind and helpful. Great bakery just around the corner to pick up amazing goodies. Lovely breakfast at the hotel in the am. They will arrange a shuttle to and from the airport for you. $20USD for our group of 5. $10USD for the way back to the airport!the beds were clean. The only complaint I do have is that our bathroom didn’t feel clean at all. Otherwise, we loved it.

I didn’t do enough research before I booked this room. It was VERY small, about 8x12 and you had to share a bathroom. No AC It seemed clean enough and the staff was nice. We ended up leaving and staying at another hotel.

Hotel muito simples, próximo do aeroporto. Passamos apenas uma noite para seguir viagem para outro destino. Café da manhã deixa muito a desejar, em especial para brasileiros acostumados com fartura e formato Buffet para degustação a vontade.
