This was a great choice for me and my family. We had a great stay. The staff was nice but they could have been more warm and friendly. The rooms themselves were clean and maintained well. I like that it was like an apartment (it had a fridge, microwave, stove top, sink, and plates/cups). The breakfast was good. The location was great for us because we were able to walk to the mall that's nearby and it was a short drive to downtown San Jose.

I stay there about 10 times a year. The property is in my opinion, the best in the San Pedro area. No worries about someone there stealing credit card identity as happened at a nearby hotel. I do wonder about employee turnover there.

8/10 Very good

We had a nice stay but the area around seems dangerous based on all the electric wires and fences and gates on all properties in the area. Breakfast was good and staff friendly and helpful. Rooms was clean. No A/C but windows offer a breeze but there is plenty of noise. Door to the room seemed flimsy and hollow with no extra lock, just door knob lock.

8/10 Very good

Lovely neighbourhood, lovely hotel

This is the perfect place to stay if you know San Jose a little bit. You are right in San Pedro with easy access to the rest of the city via public transportation. Nice restaurants are all within walking distance as is the pleasant campus of the University of Costa Rica. The campus is a great place for a run too! I like the fact that all rooms have kitchenettes too!
Verified

10/10 Exceptional

Yep, great place if you spend little time at your hotel, like conference or whatnot. The staff is super helpful and generous, always trying to help out. A little noisy, but disappears into the general buzz of San Jose after a while. Absolutely recommended!

I arrived at 2 AM and I messaged them that I will be checking in late. They were very kind and wait for me until I arrived.
