MI ESTANCIA EN EL HOTEL FUE MUY AMENA, SOLO SUGIERO QUE EL MENU DE DESAYUNO SEA VARIADO, NO SIEMPRE LO MISMO.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Dennis and Romi were fantastic. We got great recommendations for dining and tours from Romi and Dennis. The breakfast was great each day. It included juice, coffee, gallo pinto, eggs, toast, and fruit. While I was here I overheard the statement that this hotel isn't for everybody. I agree with this. If you are expecting luxury accommodations at this price you will be disappointed. However, what it lacks in luxury, it really makes up for in hospitality. Staying here is an experience. One of the best parts is that the guests were all so interesting and friendly. There were many opportunities to chat with guests in the courtyard over breakfast or coffee at any other time during the day. Socially, this was the best experience of our visit. Obviously, this can vary based on the guests at any given time, but I do think this place attracts people who are a bit more social and adventurous and not so stuffy. We were really lucky to be invited a birthday dinner at the hotel during our stay. The food was the best we had during our stay in San Jose, and it was so nice of the family to include us. The downside is that the location makes it a bit noisy at times. If this is a concern I would recommend not staying in the rooms facing the busy road. Room 1 has a great shower though, so this makes up for it.

I stayed 3 nights in this characterful arty gem of a family run hotel - a beautiful cooked to order breakfast and relaxing garden, older but clean and interestingly decorated rooms and helpful friendly staff. Super central with lots of eating and shopping nearby and very safe/secure (although taxis are best at night). A comfortable and clean room for the price.

Nice place. Rooms were large, had wardrobe for storage, a safe, large bathroom, tv. No AC though but didn't need it as it was cool. Breakfast had 3 options: pancakes, eggs and toast, or eggs and rice. Reception was friendly. Location is about 5-10 min walk from central ave. Was a little loud in the morning through the windows with regular noise (cars, dogs, birds, people) as we had to have the window open for air, but that's expected noise from the streets. Overall nice.

I booked 6 nights when travel to costa rica. I m so glad I made a right choice. The hotel location is perfect. In center of the town. The staff are very friendly. Helpful. Every day helped me to contact my tour company to confirm. I have recommended this place to my friends. And I will be back hopefully soon! Love it!

Super cute little place! The taxi driver did warn us not to go out alone late at night but there were no problems we could see during our stay.

Definitely not 4 star, but a great character and nice setting even though it's right downtown. Awesome breakfast and very friendly staff. Will definitely stay there again. Comfortable beds, hot showers. Cooked to order eggs/fruit/pancakes for breakfast. Coffee 24/7.

床も家具もしっかり磨かれていて、豪華ではないけど、清潔快適。壁のあちこちに絵が描かれ、コスタリカらしさを感じることができる。タオルは毎日取り替えてくれる。 朝食は中庭で。「パンケーキ」「トースト&スクランブルエッグ」「トースト&目玉焼き」から選ぶと、その場で作ってくれる。 オウムがやってくる中庭で壁に描かれた大きな絵を眺めながらとる朝食は気持ち良い。 Wifiもあり、部屋でも利用できる。 ロビー兼リビングルーム的な部屋が素敵。 スタッフは静かで穏やかな方々。笑顔がやさしい。

The owner was very friendly and helpful, the hotel is simple, but has some kind of originality, which also helps to create a feeling of adventure. The location is great, just steps away from downtown.

If you don't want to stay in the usual plastic Holiday Inn, this is an excellent choice. It's inexpensive, unique, pleasant, and many of the guests are interesting people. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and can help you get the most out of your stay.
