A recommander lors d'une arrivée à San Jose.
Pros:

Bien situé dans un quartier calme mais à proximité de commerces. Bon rapport qualité prix. Le monsieur de l'accueil Herman est extrêmement sympathique et prêt à vous aider/conseiller si besoin. De plus le loueur auto Alamo est à proximité et Herman peut se charger de faire la réservation pour vous.

Cons:

Les escaliers pour accéder à la chambre un peu raide avec les valises.

Loved every part of it!
Pros:

The location is close to the airport, and within easy travel distances to other parts of Costa Rica. The hotel staff were very helpful, professional and friendly. The room and building is well maintained, clean, and comfortable. The neighbourhood of the hotel is rich, full of nature, and quiet, which makes it perfect for a great retreat. I will definitely revisit this location if I am in Costa Rica in the future.

Cons:

None

Lovely stay close to airport
Pros:

Loved the location close to the airport prior to flying home. Lovely villa turned into a boutique-like hotel. Bonus with pool too although not heated, but lovely view. Great walking distance to places for breakfast, lunch and dinner - even a grocery story just 10 minutes away on foot! Also the front desk was kind enough to let us stay a bit passed check out until our driver to airport arrive close to noon.

Cons:

Room was close to pool which in the morning had a lot of staff chatting early hours because breakfast set up was just outside that room.
