Staff were very friendly. The room was clean and quiet. Just what was needed for our last night after exploring several regions of Costa Rica - hotel chosen as being close to the airport - just a cheap uber away.

A little oasis about half an hour from the airport. A great place to spend our first night in Costa Rica instead of rushing off somewhere after our plane landed

Best hotel in San Jose!

I felt so welcome the moment I walked onto the property. It’s a very secure place and I felt very safe, especially as a female, solo traveler. The check in was very easy and the kind security guard helped me to my room. Jennifer (I believe her name is) is extremely sweet and made sure I had everything I needed for my stay. Everyone was so nice! The restaurant staff is so attentive and very efficient with the food orders. I was so happy to enjoy the free breakfast, the pool, and the wonderful room. Everything was very clean and organized. I wish to return soon! This will be my first choice for hotels in San Jose :) Muchas gracias!!
