A great hotel for a night near the airport. The area looks rough....window bars and razor wire abound, but I think it's just because it's inner city. No AC, and the fan didn't do much to cool the room. Room was small. Breakfast was a nice surprise, simple but good and delivered to the table.

Convenient location. Close to the airport. The staff were friendly.
Got to hotel and the guy said my room wasnt available. Flood he said. 10pm at night in an unfamiliar part of this city and im standing on a sidewalk with all of my crap and no hotel room. I asked why i didnt get an email and the guy says he sent one letting me know that room was unavailable and i was being relocated to the hostel down the street. Nope. No email. Should of taken a sec and sent me one. Whatever. The guy is lucky I know a little secret about this country. Everything is alway just fine....
My husband and I stayed here for the night before we headed onward. The hotel is located 1.3k from the airport and if you are ambitious enough to walk it, you could. Hotel provided us with taxi help in the morning with taxi cab costung no more $4-$5.
Our one night stay was perfect. In the evening when we got in we walked around the square and the near by mercado. There are lots of great coffee shops and restaurants around.
The following morning we woke up to a free continental breakfast. Fresh fruits, toast and coffee.
The owners are really nice and attententive and really want you to feel at home.
Definitely recommend staying here especially if you have a layover or early flight. Or even if you want to check out San Jose area.

Hot night\Cold wake up.
Staff was very nice but somehow I missed that it is in the city (I knew) and didn't have air conditioning or hot water. I picked the place because of the proximity to the SJO airport (4 KM) since I had an early flight. Without AC or the ability to open the windows because of the city noise it was hard to sleep, but the cold shower at 3 am certainly woke me up fast.
