Muy recomendado!!!
La relación calidad precio es buena, la habitación que yo ocupe era pequeña pero suficiente (tienen habitaciones disponibles mas grandes por precio algo superior). Esta bien situado y las personas de recepción son muy amables en el trato y con mayor disponibilidad que en otros hoteles para ayudar al cliente a buscar los medios para viajar por Costa Rica de forma razonable y económica para el cliente. He utilizado este hotel dos veces en mi parada por San Jose y mi experiencia ha sido muy buena, lo recomiendo!!!!

Fantastisk service
Vi stannade här en natt. Min kompis anlände tidigare än mig och hotellet lät henne checka in tidigare samt gav henne frukost även om detta inte ingick första dagen. Receptionen, speciellt Kenneth (även den andra receptionisten vilken vi inte minns namnet på), var superhjälpsam. Han gav oss råd, tog reda på information och ringde samtal för att hjälpa oss. Hotellet är mycket centralt, gångavstånd till det mesta. Hotellet har bekväma sängar och en söt liten innergård. Inget lyxhotell men ett prisvärt hotell med bra standard.

2/10 Poor

So disappointing I left after one night. A small, cramped room (with 2 beds and no space to walk), creaky beds, outdated decor, the most basic of equipment- and a supposedly continental breakfast which was laughable. The bed was old and creaky, and the room was noisy. It’d be hard to imagine a more depressing night...

Avoid the ground floor in front.
Don't stay on the first floor in room 101 or 102. You can hear everything from the buzzer for the front door to the clerk typing on their keyboard. Other than that, excellent.

Elegí el hotel por conveniencia en ubicación porque iba a realizar solamente un trámite en una institución. La atención por parte del personal fue Excelente, pero el hotel es triste y silencioso y la habitación no me agradó con respecto a las fotos, no hay amenidades y la limpieza no es buena, los canales de tv de mala calidad, en el baño hay una cortina ( eso ya no se usa, no es higiénico ) Es un hotel de paso pero si deben de mejorar porque no es bueno que los turistas se lleven esa impresión de la hotelería del centro de San José. Aclaro con esto que no estoy molesto solamente que no disfruté de la estancia.
