hotel de mauvaise condition loin de tout,
arrivé à l'aéroport aucun taxi ne connaît l'hotel, il ne trouve pas l'adresse. La chambre est dans un état délabrée. Aucune fenêtre pour voir dehors. Réfrigérateur pas branché. Aucun garde robe. Pas d'eau chaude pour la douche. Aucun téléphone dans la chambre, nous ne pouvons pas rejoindre expédia pour en discuter. Je ne recommande aucunement cet hotel. Nous avons réservés dans un autre hotel ou nous avons pu faire des réservations pour des expéditions.

Short term apartment in San Jose
I stayed in the apartments leased by the hotel; and while the apartment was clean and the staff friendly, it is not a typical hotel stay. I found the environment pleasing and in a good location around Universidad de Costa Rica. If you are looking for a traditional hotel, the apartments at this hotel are not your best option. If you are looking for a short term apartment while in San Jose, it is perfect because it offers the benefits of a kitchen, which will allow you to save on food expenses while in Costa Rica.

Hotel Is Just OK
Hotel is ok. No help with bags up two flights, no phone number supplied for hotel and emails asking for offered airport shuttle pickup went unanswered. Breakfasts were basic - weak coffee and milk made from powder. Bed had fitted sheet and a scratchy bedspread only. I asked for top sheet and was offered another fitted sheet and scratchy bedspread. Rooms were ok but stuffy with no air or overhead fan and no screens in windows (weak fan provided). Kitchenette was just fine.
