Peaceful in the city

The location of this condo was near to all the craziness of the city, but really felt quiet and lovely on the outskirts. View of a green belt, creek, and a dog park. Nice balcony for coffee in the morning. Restaurants across the street. Groceries nearby. The condo was comfortable, spacious, and clean. This was our first trip to Costa Rica, and we were very grateful for this "oasis in the city."

Not tourist area. I

Nothing impressive about location. Condo is located in industrial area. Gas trucks coming and going. Located down steep hill which creates wind tunnel. The shower has no place for toiletries. Restaurants are just ok. No cleaning supplies.

Response from VrboOwner on Feb 26, 2025
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not match your expectations. However, we’d like to clarify a few points for future guests. Our condo is located in one of the most exclusive areas of San José, as highlighted in our listing title: "An oasis in the middle of the city." Far from being in an industrial zone, the building is surrounded by nature, which enhances its charm and provides a unique atmosphere within the urban landscape. Regarding amenities, in Costa Rica, it is not customary to provide guests with cleaning supplies for bathrooms or laundry. However, we do ensure that guests have essential toiletries such as shampoo, shower gel, and toilet paper. Additionally, our kitchen—something quite rare in local accommodations—is stocked with a variety of teas, three types of sugar, coffee, salt, pepper, and oil for your convenience. We regret that your experience did not fully reflect the effort we put into creating a welcoming and comfortable stay. We appreciate your comments and will continue striving to provide the best possible experience for our guests.
