Guest Reviews
- Madison (7/5): - Got in to the airport at 11pm. The hotel provided a free shuttle from the airport. It was really just a taxi but super easy. Recommend for an affordable place to stay!
- Solis Monguillo (10/5): Cómodo cerca de todo - Comodidad y atención del personal No había cable
- Peo (9/5): -
- Jean-luc Le Goff (10/5): Passage - Emplacement
Le personnel est très à l'écoute et de très bon conseils. Organisation des transferts au top Rien
- Price (10/5): Exceptional stay, budget friendly! - The staff was friendly and helpful, the location was easy to get to and there were restaurants within walking distance of the hotel. The hotel was very clean. The pool deck has covered seating and was very relaxing. My room had a little balcony with a chair. I was expecting some city noise during the night but it was actually quiet!
- Patricia (9/5): -
- Matteo (8/5): - La posizione è molto centrale, le camere sono pulite, il personale gentile, c'è un buon wifi e offrono un servizio di navetta gratuita per l'aeroporto. La colazione è abbastanza varia ma mi sarebbe piaciuto che ci fosse più frutta tropicale, come papaya, mango e ananas. E' solo un dettaglio ma penso che per molti turisti è piacevole iniziare la giornata con della frutta tropicale alla quale raramente sono abituati.
- Florangel (10/5): -
- Andrej (8/5): -
- Yvan (9/5): -
- Mike (5/5): Just about OK if you arrive at SJO late at night and need to leave early morning. - Sufficient for brief overnight stay, a few hours sleep. Tiny boxy room. Antique shower. Meagre pathetic breakfast - they really could have tried harder.
- RICARDO (9/5): Sanabria - Me encantó la ubicacion, la habitacion y camas bastante comodas, el baño muy limpio. El AC punto alto funcionó muy bien. Pedí una habitacion donde no escuchara ruido de la calle y me colaboraron con eso. La atencion al cliente del muchacho de Recepcion del Lunes 19/5/26 a las 545am que hice check out no fué el deseado pero nada que un buen refrescamiento o capacitacion en Servicio al Cliente no lo pueda mejorar. Le falta mas amabilidad y soltar el celular cuando llega un cliente al mostrador. Si no fuera por eso les hubiera dado el 10 en todo
- Raema (8/5): -
- rosanna (9/5): -
- Marie Noelle (9/5): - Every thing Nothing
- Paul (10/5): Very central to all amenities I had a great experience with my stay here highly recommend - Firstly the staff go above and beyond to make your stay easy and comfortable very relaxed and comfortable experience. The rooms are spacious clean and very comfortable.

- Strahinja (8/5): Short only one night excellent - Small cute very clean stuff very helpful Price ,very clean small very nice pool
- Rachel (10/5): The woman at the front desk was really nice, she helped us with our heavy bags. - Cleanliness! We called from the airport but no one answered the phone, that was disappointing. But, we had to go back to the airport the following morning so the hotel kindly took us.
- Jenyfer (10/5): -
- Claire (10/5): - Great stay for a night before the airport. 6 minute drive to San Jose international airport. Clean rooms, great shower pressure. Wonderful knowledge staff. Amazing food options just a walk down the road
- Ivonn Alfaro (1/5): - El lugar muy bonito El trato del personal no son amables ni colaboradores
- Norton (9/5): Clean , comfortable and great location for connection to airport. Staff gave 110% to make you comfortable and very frien - Just what I needed, close proximity to airport, shuttle connection included and very convenient to local restaurants for food.
- Joël (8/5): Boone option proche de l'aéroport mais calme. - Bon chic pour dormir pas loin de l'aéroport situé à 15 mn en voiture.
Petit déjeuner correct.
Nous n'avons pas testé la piscine.
Calme. Pas très moderne mais conforme aux photos.
- Peter (10/5): -
- Tamas (7/5): - Remek ár, jó elhelyezkedés és ingyen reptéri transzfer. Éjszaka a kintről bejövő gépzaj. Nem a mi klímánk zaja, mert azt éjszakára kikapcsoltuk.

- peter (9/5): Wouldn't hesitate to recommend for overnight before or after a flight. - La Guaria was able to accommodate us with 2 rooms at short notice after our Spirit flight was canceled. We needed an airport shuttle, as our rental car had been returned. Theirs was also free. Terrific staff advised us on what to do and where to eat within walking distance during our forced layover. 24 hour reception desk. Even recommended a minisuper open at 5am! Nice complimentary breakfast. Clean throughout, including the pool. Great location. Not deal breakers. Our 2 rooms each had one double bed, but comfortable. I'm 6 foot 4, but that's my fault! One of our rooms had a skylight that couldn't be screened off at night, and dawn was at 5 something (no DST in CR.) Noise level a little high during the day, as the city center is a busy place, but almost NO traffic after rush hour or at night.

- Kaj (8/5): -
- Sylvia (8/5): - La ubicación y precio accesible
- Martinez (10/5): - Nos hospedamos una noche en La Guaria Inn & Suites y la experiencia fue excelente. Desde nuestra llegada, el trato del personal fue muy amable y atento, haciendo que nos sintiéramos cómodos en todo momento.
Las habitaciones estaban limpias, ordenadas y muy cómodas, perfectas para descansar. Además, el ambiente del hotel es tranquilo y agradable. Todo durante la estadía fue maravilloso y cumplió completamente nuestras expectativas.
Sin duda lo recomiendo para quienes buscan un lugar cómodo, bonito y con muy buena atención en Alajuela. ¡Volveríamos otra vez! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
- Teresa (8/5): - All is good. It is near airport. Free transportation from and to airport. That saves at least $20.
The rates are really good. It is not a Hilton but very clean and courteous. Plus a lite breakfast.
Great AC. It will be my place when traveling to and from USA. Also nice pool area.
- Tony (8/5): Would recommend to anyone to stay - Had an enjoyable stay but only for 2 nights due to flights
Was great location to centre of town
Breakfast was more than adequate
Staff were more than happy to help out
- Frédéric (8/5): - Emplacement, déjeuner, accueil, transport vers aéroport Télé non fonctionnelle. Draps en polyester.
- ruth (8/5): - La ubicación,el trato q nos dió el personal. Era acogedor y estaba muy limpio
- Wlodarczyk (10/5): - It had exceptional value. With the passes to the hotsprings and free breakfast it felt like the room was basically free. The staff was very friendly and the rooms were comfortable.
- Jennifer (10/5): Staff was very helpful with my late check in and scheduling my airport transportation. Room and pool were well maintaine - Very sweet and helpful staff and the room was clean and well maintained. I enjoyed the pool and used their free shuttle service as well as breakfast Everything was great
- CERDAS (8/5): -
- Weronika (7/5): - The location is good, and the driver was very friendly. The breakfast was not worth the price. Airport pickup and drop-off are only available during limited hours. the AC & TV was not working
- Manisha (8/5): -
- Viktorija (5/5): It’s conveniently located to the airport and one transfer / per night booked is included in the price. The room was -
- Kraske (9/5): - Sehr nettes Personal. Zimmer waren sehr sauber und von der Größe ausreichend für 1 Nacht. Der Ventilator im Zimmer war sehr laut, deshalb haben wir die Klimaanlage angemacht. Frühstück war ausreichend für uns. Der Pool ist sehr schön, dort kann man bei de Hitze gut relaxen.
- marjan (8/5): - Comfortabel en netjes. Vriendelijk personeel. Relaxed en netjes zwembad. Ik was de tosti en toast van het ontbijt na 2 dagen wel beu. Voorkeur voor volkoren brood of yoghurt oid.
- Mirna Liz (8/5): -
- Vera (10/5): -
- Aguirre (10/5): -
- Everett (10/5): -
- Jérôme (7/5): Hôtel bien placé pour être à côté de l’aéroport. - Très proche de l’aéroport dans un cartier animé avec beaucoup de restaurant accessible à pied. Petite piscine rafraîchissante pour un moment de détente. L’hôtel est dans une rue passante et il y a le bruit des voitures et moto une bonne partie de la nuit.
- Ivy Hdez (9/5): - Cumplio con el objetivo Nada
- Kristina (7/5): -
- Marie-Laure (9/5): -
- fernandodelolmo (5/5): -
- Adan (10/5): -
- Philip (10/5): Ideal central san jose stopover - It was a one night stop, but was fine, with a free airport shuttle at an early time. It was fine for us.
- Pierce (8/5): Everything went well. - Close to the airport.
- Daniel (10/5): - Buen desayuno
- Tricia (10/5): -
- Gonzalez (9/5): - Ubicación, amabilidad, limpieza. Si tienen parqueo pero a una cuadra arriba.
- Michal (8/5): - Odvoz na letiště v ceně pokoje
- Miki (9/5): A very good hotel - This is my go-to hotel in Alajuela. It is very close to SJO (10 min by taxi), stores, a museum and restaurants. The hotel is clean, comfortable and quiet. The staff is friendly and helpful. None
- Ruben (4/5): -
- Roberta (6/5): - Convenient to airport Stained bed coverlet...I'd expect better attention to detail for $75!
- Andrey (8/5): -
- Heinz (7/5): Für 1 Nacht ideal, so muss nicht in Dunkelheit noch durch Costa Rica fahren. - Flughafen Nähe.
Bewachter Parkplatz inkl.
Frühstück inkl.
Kleiner Pool.
- Anna (8/5): - The room was comfortable, the pool and garden was very nice. Very good for short stays. Very close to the airport with the free shuttle
- Jim (10/5): Great spot for a night before catching our plane home - Great location, comfortable room good communication Nothing
- Adeline (4/5): Bien mieux ailleurs, des efforts à faire - L'hôtel est situé proche du marché, seul intérêt à proximité Personne à l'accueil pas franchement agréable au regard du reste du Costa Rica.
Il pleut souvent et la piscine est froide.
Humidité ++ dans les chambres et petit déjeuner franchement pauvre.
- Arianna (5/5): -
- Philip (7/5): Cannot recommend because I did not feel safe. - Clean and very reasonable. 24 hr security car parking one block away, nice people No smoke alarms, no building fire extinguisher system ( handheld one per floor), ( if a fire started my wife and I would be dead),no secondary lock on the door, poor excuse for“breakfast”, scattered bites on legs very suspiciously like bed bugs though none seen
- Kim (6/5): It served its purpose, for a night sleep, and shuttle to airport - It was reasonable It was a little out dated
- Corinna Steiner (8/5): -
- Vladlena (5/5): Kamer verouderd, te klein, lawaaierig want naast de trap en geen uitzicht uit het raam (muur). - Shuttle Kamer en ontbijt
- Horacio (8/5): Agradable y funcional - La habitación, amplia con ventilador de techo y aire acondicionado. La muy buena predisposición de Alberto, el responsable de mantenimiento, quién me ayudó con la TV.
El espacio de la pileta, muy agradable para cuando volves de una excursión. El desayuno cumple, pero se podría mejorar, a lo mejor con algún desayuno típico de Costa Rica. un gallo pinto, por ejemplo o una fruta como el mango, o esas típicas "tostadas" de plátano, tan ricas. Ofrecer alimentos que forman parte de las costumbres de la región es más valorado que un desayuno clasico de hotel.
- Gina (10/5): -
- Alexander (7/5): - Große Zimmer, bequeme Betten Extrem laut von der Starsse, miserables Frühstuck
- Raine (8/5): Good for a short airport stay, but a bit noisy in the morning. - Convenient for a one-night stay near the airport. The airport pickup worked smoothly with advance coordination and made arrival easy. The hotel is basic but functional, and breakfast was simple but adequate for a short stay. The main downside is that the hotel is located on a city street, so there was noticeable street noise early in the morning.
- Guisela (8/5): Hotel correcto y con buen precio - Hotel muy cerca del aeropuerto y con un precio correcto. La habitación estaba limpia e el desayuno era correcto. Buscábamos algo con un precio ajustado y es lo que queríamos. La ventana de la habitación da a la calle y se bastante oían los coches por la noche. No lo recomendaría para personas que les cueste dormir.
- Dana (7/5): Hostal de paso, aceptable. - Es un hostal de paso, por lo cual no ofrece mas que los servicios necesarios. Es ordenado, organizado, limpio, tiene el plus de la piscina. Poca cantidad de toallas (solo 1 de mano para habitacion doble), podrian poner mas almohadas, el desayuno es casi todo seco, poca fruta. Jugo muy artificial. Tuvimos que apagar el aire acond de noche porque hacia un fuertisimo ruido que no dejaba dormir. El personal no es tan predispuesto ni muy amable.
- Maeder (6/5): - Tal vez el desayuno Tamaño cuarto
Tv con 5 pesimos canales.
Ruido
- MONICA (5/5): -
- Mari (10/5): Great location and airport shuttle for a group of five overnight! - We had trouble finding a place that would offer our family of five a shuttle in the wee hours of the morning (3 am). Many hotels only offer shuttles until 10 or 11 pm. It was no problem at this hotel, which is about 10 minutes or less from the airport. Our six year old loved the courtyard pool, and we even had a family bedroom (two queens and a twin) rather than one person getting stuck with a couch. Thanks for the nice stay. It’s in Alajuela, right in town, so there is some usual city noise.
