Breakfast was a full tico style breakfast and the service was excellent. There are trains running nearby so a little noise but that’s probably everywhere in this neighborhood. I highly recommend. Great value for the price.
A great little hotel in a pleasant neighborhood. Easy check-in and rooms were as seen in photos. Walking distance to any restaurants or bars

Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. Room has very minimal comforts. Lots of street and train noise and noise from room above. Parking area is literally 5 feet from the bed and the walls are paper thin. Good access to restaurants.
Small nice hotel in the heart in San Jose on barrio Escalante, very convenient to stay 1-2 nights to enjoy the city and/or night life . Room is average, beds, beddings, towels, soap in the bathroom, no fan or AC, it was a cool weather, so no needed. No elevator for the second floor, about 10 steps. The breakfast is great with traditional Costa Rican gallo pinto, coffee and fruits to start the day. Easy to walk everywhere or call Uber/taxi
Nice stay but no AC in the rooms and they didn’t have fans available upon request so the room was quite hot and it was very loud outside in the morning

Doing your laundry in San Jose’ can be hassle and it’s expensive. Also, the light above the bathroom sink, that I need to shave, was out and it wasn’t the bulb.

The bathroom don't have hooks to the towels and clothes.
I came to check in with my 83 year old handicapped parents and there were no elevators, no handicapped parking accessible and my father was very unimpressed with the quality of this hotel (it’s old and very plain) and its sketchy location. We stayed at the Hyatt Place previously and this is a 2 star in comparison for the same rate. I didn’t know when I booked there would not be an elevator and the staff refused to refund. I did not cancel the reservation but someone on their end did for me because it showed as cancel in Orbitz when I opened the app. While trying to acquire another hotel, this hotel came up as a choice on Orbitz but when I clicked on it to “try to book”, there were no rooms available.
Helpful staff, flexible, and located in a safe neighborhood . However the room I was in was not well maintained, there was no ventilation, bathroom fixture was broken, the sheets were stained even though they smelled washed. I would def not recommend staying here for an extended period of time
My partner stayed there and for the price it is just perfect.

A equipe é muito atenciosa e cordial, porém os quartos são muito modestos, os colchões são extremamente ruins, de péssimas condições e totalmente deformados por já terem ultrapasssfo o prazo de uso, assim como os travesseiros.
