This lodging is La Sabana is very wonderful. We particularly loved the sun room/covered porch on the second floor. The bedrooms were comfortable. The kitchen was relatively spacious. The lodging is close to a large park and not far from downtown San Jose. We appreciated that the lodging included a covered garage for 1 car. The host is very attentive and responsive.
