We stayed here for the night before our flight home. Very bare bones, basic lodging, but that's what I paid for. The hostess was very nice, and she made an excellent breakfast, and the place is kept very clean. The neighborhood seemed a bit rough, but we just stayed in after dark and they have good security. If you do stay here and don't speak Spanish, have google translator ready- owners do not speak English.

Great little place to stay after or before a flight. Handy to get to the airport and the town was more chill than SJ. No AC so it was a bit warm. Nice family run place. Great restaurant on the block La Sopa.

The location is great to walk to restaurants and a supermarket if needed. The people are nice and quick to respond. However, the room was not clean and the curtains fell down in the middle of the night. I also thought my room would have a private bathroom and the shuttle to the airport would be free. Neither is a dealbreaker, but the site makes it seem as though these were included in the price.

Place was a good value but a bit hard to find. I parked on the street in front of the hotel and got a ticket so be careful where you park. Other than that everything was good.

It was very good and practical. I needed a place near the airport to stay for the night and it worked very well. They pick you up ($10 each way to the airport) and because of COVID no breakfast. It is a hostal style place

Not fabulous for the price.
The check in was easy but there was no on site parking at the property. Street parking cost 450 colones per hour and there was an overnight garage parking cost 3600 colones but I was told from the property it cost 2000. Breakfast was not offered despite the listing included breakfast. No one was on site in the property except guests so if you need something , you have to call the number. There was also a language barrier with the owner. About the room, small size but clean. It's a common shared bathroom ( I was not aware) but at least the guests keep it clean. During the check out, no one from the property were presence so I just left the key in the room. Hotels.com stated the amount the be paid including taxes, but when i pay to the hotel, i have to pay extra with the tax.

Blanca et Josue nous ont très bien accueillis ! Ils sont à l'écoute, disposés à bavarder et soucieux de faire toujours mieux. Nous avons occupé la grande chambre du fond, donc nuit paisible sans bruit de rue ni chiens. Literie bien propre au confort moyen, comme souvent. Fin novembre le grand ventilateur a largement suffi pour garder le frais. Une grande salle de bain avec une douche à bon débit et un eau bien chaude, quel plaisir ! Un bon gros petit déjeuner préparé par Blanca nous a remis les idées en place. Accès à du café et infusions pendant la journée. Le petit jardin est parfaitement fermé si vous voulez lâcher vos animaux domestiques. Compter 3600 colons pour le parking de nuit dans un des parkings gardés puisqu'il n'est pas permis dans la rue. En somme, quoique les lieux et le jardin soient bruyants le jour à cause de la rue malgré le mur, l'essentiel y est pour bien récupérer après un vol. Demandez une des chambres du fond et vous dormirez bien. Une chouette adresse. Merci !

Convenientemente cercano al aeropuerto
No hay recepción por lo que debes de avisar antes de tu llegada para que alguien te espere y te abra en la propiedad, pero aquí en hoteles.com por ningún lado te indican eso, por lo que el ingreso no fue el mejor. La estancia buena y la atención también. Eso sí, nos sugirieron que podíamos dejar la camioneta afuera estacionada en la calle y no habría problemas, nos multaron, jajja. Mejor dejarlo en el estacionamiento que está a dos cuadras.
