Nice hotel in San Jose but not near the airport
Came for one night in our way to La Fortuna. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Staff was friendly. They had excellent security. Felt very safe.
Not convenient to airport as traffic is terrible. Took one hour to get there from the airport. Not the hotel’s fault, but not the place to stay if traveling to or from SJO.

Personal touch
Raquel checked us in at the reception. She was excellent and expedient. Also she noted that the day of check-in was a day after my birthday and wished me a happy birthday. She then went above and beyond, reminiscent of olden days, and added a personal touch by surprising us with sending slices of cake to our room.
This was greatly appreciated and made us feel special.
