Guest Reviews

• Ismaela (10/5): -
• STACEY (10/5): Pura vida - Everything !! The location , the staff ! Spécial shoutout to Mauricio y Roxana ❤️ they were very Nice and took their time to explain us some things. I book twice that hotel
• Grisella (1/5): Pésima atención de la recepción una mujer, nos respondió de mala manera y mi persona llevaba un niño de meses y con las - Que indican que tiene parqueo y a la hora llegada no tienen Y lo mandan a uno y lo cobran por aparte Eso deberían de indicarlo y no decir que tiene parqueo cuando no es así
• Katherine (7/5): Muy buena ubicación y servicio al cliente. Desayuno rico. Oportunidad de mejorar higiene en camas. Cobran en el momento - La ubicación Higiene, habían hormigas en las mesas y había polvo, ropa de cama se puede mejorar. Señal de tu y wifi débil y con intermitencias.
• david (7/5): Great short term stay - Great Argentinian resturant next door
• Juan (10/5): -
• Angela (7/5): On reflection 1 night would have been adequate - It was a beautiful building and the restaurant/ breakfast area was seated in a lovely area. Staff were very friendly. We stayed 2 nights and no fresh towels were given resulting in drying with wet/damp towels after showering. No shower gel provided only bars of soap, also the tiled shower was slippery, needed a bath/shower mat to stand on.
• Jason (10/5): - Would highly recommend, nice friendly staff, nice clean room and good breakfast options included. Good central location for downtown San Jose.
• t (8/5): - Quant hotel, small and very clean. Small pool, which I did not use. Next to China Town and main sites in the centre of San Jose..very friendly staff. I was in room 26 to front of the Hotel, noisy on the Friday night, mainly from motor bikes !. Argentinian Restaurant across the road, which was very busy and poplar given the amount of people who were in the Restaurant. There was no room for me when I tried to book! Very large bed, very comfortable. Breakfast was good. Plenty of eating and drinking places near by. Central Market, 5 minute walk. Alas, I lasted about 3 minutes before I exited, everyone inviting you to their shop! Not for me ! If you want a small-scale hotel, book here
• sergio (8/5): -
• STACEY (10/5): Nice place to stay - Everything ! The staff the location and the breakfast 😍
• Aguilar (8/5): Pura vida. - La atención del personal, muy amables,. Fue todo muy bien.
• O'Reilly (10/5): - The person who greeted us was cheerful and pleasant to interact with. Our room was a clean quiet space. Breakfast was amazing, with a lovely view of the pool and a huge bouquet of flowers growing along the back wall. The pool area was open air with a view of the dyrtiunding area from the 2nd and 3rd floor.
• Alberto (8/5): Buena opción de hospedaje - La habitación es cómoda y la ubicación del alojamiento es aducuada Todo bien
• Alexandra (9/5): - Restaurant in house, lekkere cocktail, heerlijke douche, nette en ruime kamer, fijn met de open gang en daardoor binnenvallende daglicht in de kamer, vriendelijk personeel. In het restaurant was het best koud en moest ik best lang wachten voor ik kon betalen. Geen lift voor de valiezen naar boven te brengen. Gelukkig hielp er iemand van het personeel.
• Yelena (10/5): Totally worth it - Excellent location Clean and neat Great amazing staff!!! N/a
• Clare (9/5): Great staff, fabulous shower and air con! - The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, I arrived late and had to check out early so didn’t have much of a chance to experience a full stay, but the showers especially were good and the air con very handy for my first night in Costa Rica
• Mischa (9/5): -
• Mera (10/5): Perfect place , great price - Great room, breakfast, staff, all was great . The price was amazing too. All was great !
• isabelle (7/5): - Le paiement en colónes avec un taux de change erroné
• Jaramillo (7/5): -
• Guest (4/5): -
• gamboa novo (10/5): - El café y el servicio en general todo muy limpio el personal excelente 👌 El saber que no hay parqueo propio hay que dejarlo en otro parqueo público que hay que pagar y generalmente esta lleno.
• Umana (10/5): -
• Elisa Beatriz (8/5): San Jose - Ubicado en el centro o casco antiguo, se podía recorrer caminando distintos puntos de interes Quizás un poco ruidoso ya que elnpersonsl llega tipo 5,45. Y mi habitación en PB al.lado del restoran se escuchaban las charlas
• ChristinaCP89 (6/5): - Die Lage des Hotels war sehr gut, man war schnell beim Zentralmarkt. Badezimmer war sauber. Die Bettdecken waren voller Flecken und uns kam es so vor, dass diese schon sehr alt sind. Der Boden im Zimmer war ebenfalls nicht sehr sauber. Der Pool war sehr kalt und das Wasser war leider auch nicht ganz sauber.
• Cristian (10/5): Excelente opción! - Excelente ubicación cerca del centro. Desayuno completo incluido. Hotel tipo casa colonial muy hermoso, con piscina si se quedan varios días. Parking incluido a media cuadra y personal muy amable. Sin comentarios.
• Monica (10/5): Todo estuvo muy bonito - Todo Hace mucho frío para poder entrar a la piscina 😅😅
• florian (7/5): - Emplacement Vieillissant
• Favi (1/5): -
• Elisa Beatriz (4/5): - Solo me quede x 1 noche, vuelvo del 16 al 18, habitación, son cada de seguridad, vasos, frigobar, 2 pisos x escalera nadie que te suba ls maleta, luces quemadas en el baño, desayuno basico Todo l9 detallado anteriormente, debo ver la zona que no me gusto mucho, por otro lado ustedes me pasan tarifa en dólares, me aparece en la página pesos argentinos, y el hotel te cobra en colones, un lío barbaro
• Esteban (10/5): - Excelente ubicación cerca de todo, el personal muy amable y las instalaciones cómodas y muy limpias
• 76David (7/5): Perfekt für eine Nacht - Schönes historisches Gebäude, großes sauberes Zimmer mit modernem Bad, freundliches Personal. Wir hatten ein leckeres Abendessen im Restaurant. Personal im Restaurant war unaufmerksam und sehr langsam. Frühstückskaffee leider ungenießbar, wir konnten Espresso bestellen, kostete aber extra.
• Esteban (8/5): Correcto - Habitacion amplia y limpia. Esta centrico La piscina es muy pequeña
• Pablo_pmp (10/5): Muy buena relación calidad/precio - Muy bien ubicado para hacer turismo por San José, y justo frente a un restaurante argentino muy bueno El desayuno no es nada excepcional, pero alimenta
• Sandrinoauriault (6/5): -
• Michael (9/5): -
• Santi Ongaro (1/5): - Gravísimo: luego de nuestra estadía intentaron estafarnos. Nos contactaron por WhatsApp de la "recepción del hotel", afirmando falsamente que el pago no se había acreditado y exigiendo los datos completos de la tarjeta. Al desconfiar, pedimos continuar por el chat de Booking y desde allí siguieron insistiendo con el mismo pedido. Días después confirmamos que el pago estaba correctamente realizado. Es un intento de fraude. No compartan datos de tarjeta
• Peter (5/5): -
• Modestti Clau (7/5): - El señor de recepción en la mañana, el fue muy gentil y muy solidario. La chica que nos recibió, que ante un problema con una puerta de baño, solo lo soluciono sintiéndolo mucho.
• Jo (7/5): Comfortable for one night. - The staff were lovely and very helpful. It was very clean and breakfast was delicious. It was a bit noisy in our room as it was by the pool but it did not go on too late. We had requested a double bed and had two singles. It wasn’t the end of the world as we were just there one night so we did not ask for it to be changed.
• Claude (7/5): un bon emplacement pour y demeurer une nui. Près de la ville et des différents services - le déjeuner est bien ainsi que l'emplacement et la chambre était très propre Rien
• Molina Matarrita (9/5): - La cercanía de todo Todo bueno
• donna (10/5): - The building is beautiful historic home built by furniture maker, all the wood work is incredible. Comfortable room and bed. Liked it all
• Robert (8/5): -
• Wolfgang (9/5): -
• marilize (9/5): - Internet in the bedroom
• Georganne (8/5): Lovely little hotel, good room and excellent staff. - excellent little hotel with small pool... my room was excellent - think recently refurbished (would have been perfect if had tea making facilities) Breakfast good. Tea making in room would have made this hotel truly exceptional.
• Claudia (4/5): Zentral aber nicht schön - Das einzig Gute an diesem Hotel ist die zentrale Lage Extrem ignorantes Personal beim Frühstück, Buffet sehr dürftig, Pool nicht nutzbar da schmutzig, vergilbte und teilweise schmutzige Bettwäsche, Bilder total aufgehübscht
• Anaïs (10/5): - Les gens surtout ils -elles sont très gentils
• andrew (6/5): Good base for an overnight stopover - It’s in a good central location, the staff are friendly and helpful and the bed was comfortable The room was very dated and whilst the bed was comfortable there isn’t much by way of comfort in the room
• Martin (10/5): Thanks, guys - Really helped me out
• Regis (7/5): - Belle situation de l'hotel pour visiter San josé .Personel acceuillant Les photos sont trompeuses L 'hotel est petit comme la piscine d'ailleurs
• Clive (1/5): Unable to sleep because of noise. - Close to city centre and main tourist sights. Noise from street all day and most of night.
• Rastislav (8/5): -
• Vagator (8/5): -
• Frank (9/5): Convenient for the purpose of our visit to San José - Location is very convenient for our purposes; but there is no parking lot. Restaurant OK to have in a place like this… For the price we paid, most of it was very good
• Mendez Blanco (9/5): Exc ubicación con extadia tranquila en medio de la ciudad. - La exc disposición en recepción, siempre proponen comodidad y agilizar la estadía de la mejor manera.
• Gilberte (8/5): - Le cadre. La proximité du centre culturel. Salle de bain exigue et mal éclairée.
• Nicola (8/5): -
• Nicola (8/5): Great position - Location, friendly staff and secure. As very central could be noisy with vehicle noise early morning when in the front rooms
• Larry (10/5): - Very nice decor
• Birthe (9/5): -
• Imtiaz (2/5): Check the area for safely before you book, I rushed and didn't do my homework. - The staff were very helpful and accommodating. Breakfast was decent. The shower in the room was nice even though everything else in the room was sub-par. 1. Location: not a safe area, it seems. The streets were empty at ~7pm with no pedestrians. The restaurants/hotels used safety locks (won't open door and you had to buzz in, even for a restaurant) and seemed like any outside walk after dark is discouraged. 2. Sound of trains: this hotel is very close to a railway track and there were trains running all night. If you are a light sleeper, you will NOT get any sleep. Also, lots of bus making a lot of sound. 3. Not clean room: room was big, but not really clean. There were not cups/glass for water inside the room, which I think is a bare necessity. The floor, under bed was dirty. The room was dated and had plaster falling off at corners. Bathroom was leaking water which made the floor wet. Shower was very nice though... the best part. 4. Electrical outlet: no plug points to plug in phone chargers, etc. 5. Since we couldn't go out to eat dinner (safely concern), we had to eat at the on-site restaurant. The food quality was bad. Ceviche consisted of smelly fish, couldn't eat and had to waste. Chicken soup was extremely bland (yes, chicken soup CAN be flavorful and tasty). Sea bass was not tasty. Prices were not cheap but dinner experience was bad. The drinks were okay.

• marco (7/5): - Super schön gestaltetes Hotel...allein das Bad ist wunderschön mit der aber zu großen Dusche San Jose ist nicht Safe nachts...
• Bora (9/5): -
• Isabelle (8/5): Bon emplacement - Cet hôtel est bien situé car très proche du centre-ville et en même temps un peu en retrait donc plus calme. Il y a une petite piscine sympathique et juste en face un excellent resto argentin. Nous avons séjourné 2 fois et avons pu bénéficier la seconde fois d’une chambre plus grande et calme coté piscine. Le train passe pas très loin et klaxonne mais on s’y fait
• CAPONE (8/5): agradable - todo resulto bien nada que criticar
• Kvetoslava (8/5): Good location for a short stay in San Jose. - Great location for a short stay in San Jose. The location is great for visiting on foot the lovely, well curated Museum of Costa Rica. Having an Argentinian restaurant popular with the locals was a bonus. Make sure to make a reservation well in advance! You will be rewarded with great food and service. Hotel did look better on the picture. Breakfast was dissapointing, but the soul at lunch time was nice…
• Eliecer (10/5): -
• Jovany (9/5): I recommend this place! - Good location, breakfast and room all for a good price! We found a group of ants on one of our beds.
• ASADA LOS SANTOS UPALA (9/5): SE DUERME CON TRANQUILIDAD - TODO FUE MUY BUENO. EL PARQUEO, NO SÉ SI FUE QUE NO LEI BIEN EN LAS INDICACIONES, CUANDO BUSQUE INDIQUE QUE TUVIERA PARQUEO E INDICABA QUE SI; EN EFECTO SI TIENE PERO NO INDICABA A LO QUE PUEDE VER YO QUE FUERA UNA TARIFA POR APARTE, CREO QUE EN LA PARTE DE SERVICIOS QUE DAN DEBERÍA DECIR PARQUEO ( COSTO ADICIONAL).

• Alain (8/5): -
• Pawel (9/5): - super lokalizacja i dobre sniadania
• Marijke (7/5): - De locatie t.o.v.de weg naar Tortuguero. Wat zeker erg goed was,was de behulpzaamheid van de receptionist. Hij deed erg zijn best om vragen te beantwoorden en ons op weg te helpen We hadden de kamer aan de voorkant van het hotel. Zeer lawaaierig.Verkeer dendert de hele nacht voorbij.Zeer slecht geslapen hierdoor
• HIROYUKI (8/5): - 国立劇場など中心部に近く徒歩圏内 レストランのディナーがおいしい ホテルの規模は大きくはない
• Jean (7/5): Thank you, good location for a transit period in San José - Good location, friendly staff, good to average value for money, a good transit hotel for one or 2 days I think an extra effort could be done on room cleaning
• Patty (6/5): We were close to everything. We took walks to downtown every day. - The buffet breakfast in the morning is good. Good location. In downtown.
• IsaBru (9/5): Great place to unwind away from the city bustle - Familial hotel right in the city center (behind cathedral, close to pedestrian street and all museum, restaurants etc). Everything was clean, spacious and comfortable. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Amazing buffet breakfast and we also had a very good late lunch! Rooms on ground floor lacked sound-proofing. Pool look good but isn't for swimming (too small).
• Zsofia (7/5): -
• Marc-Philipp (10/5): -
• Stephen (8/5): -
• Keita (10/5): -
• Lise (9/5): Classic and beautiful old-school hotel - This is a classic hotel from last century. Beautiful building. Small, classic rooms with a brand new remodeled bathroom which was nice. Free breakfast is always a good thing. The pool is small and the weather was chilly in January. So we didn't bother. It would be good on a very hot summer day to dip into the pool just to cool down.
• Isabelle (8/5): Bonne adresse - Un petit hôtel calme pas trop loin du centre-ville. Il est préférable d’avoir une chambre côté piscine, c’est plus calme
