10/10 Exceptional

A very central location, very clean, the staff is overly friendly, typical of Costa Ricans, and the food is super delicious. It's also accessible by public transport in seconds, close to shops and restaurants. I definitely think it will be my favorite place when I return to San Jose.

Good hotel in the center of San José

Relatively new hotel, with modern, well-sized rooms. The shower took a long time to heat up. Good location, right in the city center. Good value.

Great hotel, little know secret

We just stayed 5 nights in this hotel. The hotel is right in the center of all the arts, tourist activities, and markets in San Jose! It is a safe location; the staff are exceptional, accomodating and speak good English & Spanish. Each morning you get a "cooked to order breakfast" as part of the price. And, the price is much less than comparable hotels in the area. (It is a boutique hotel w/28 rooms, but great for couples and small groups). Even the locals do not know of this hotel and it is only five years old.
