The staff was very kind and accommodating to my late arrival. The property is secure behind a gate. The courtyard is lush and offers space to gather. The walls and windows do allow for transfer of sound, but everything was quiet a bit 10:30 pm. I slept well, had a good breakfast and shower. I would stay at this property again, especially when coming through San Jose on to other destinations. Of note, I did use the provided fan, but I don’t think there is an air conditioner.

We paid for a 2 bedroom apartment and they gave us one bedroom. AC did not cool and the bathroom had drainage issues.

This place is absolutely disgusting!!! Do not spend your money here!!!!! 1. Our friends paid for a2 bedroom apartment and got a 1 bedroom. they gave away their room because of a delayed flight. Even though we booked our rooms over 6 months ago. They gave my friends a 1 bedroom apartment for 3 people…They also lied and told them that there was no price difference between a one bedroom and a two bedroom when they asked for a partial refund (the website clearly has them as separate prices). 2. The WiFi for the room only works if you keep your phone right next to the FREE-HANGING ROUTER THATS DANGLING BY CABLES NEAR THE FRONT DOOR!!! 3. The floor is warped because they put hardwood flooring right on top of the concrete slab. So every step you take on the hardwood feels like you’re going to fall into a crater. 4. Not only is the flooring messed up, they didn’t install trim around the house. So bugs got in every night. Spiders and roaches. Gross! 5. The floor is rotting in the corners. 6. This place is a huge fire hazard! There’s a live wire above the shower that powers the show. Dangerous! 7. The toilet didn’t work. I contacted the waitstaff via WhatsApp and in person to fix it. They said they did but did not. And when I reached out again, no response. I ended up fixing myself each time anyone had to flush. 8. Black mold behind the toilet!!!! 9. The safe was not working! 10. No hot water!!! This place is absolutely horrible! San Jose is beautiful. Find another hotel.

Bed bugs in the bed and roaches on the wall. I was locked in and told by the security guard I wasn’t able to leave at 11pm. I just wanted to get some water and food after a long flight. He walked me back to my room and directed me towards the bathroom sink and told me to drink from there, then when I said I want to get something to eat he just laughed and said no. Nightmare place to stay

Terrible mold/mildew in the room, poor ventilation, hot, and noisy. Actually left and stayed at another hotel after I'd checked in. Final straw was getting bit by a mosquito on top of the mildew and lack of AC.

The property is basic and had no frills but it was clean and provided what we needed for our one night in San Jose. There is a complimentary light breakfast which was appreciated and the staff was friendly. Overall if you are looking for an accommodation on a budget this is a good deal.

Sweet spot in San Jose!

This was where I stayed for my first few nights when I arrived in San Jose, and it was a welcome respite to the bustling city! The view below is the shared garden area between all of the rooms, which I unfortunately did not have time to enjoy because of the rain. My room was on the first floor, and had a comfy bed, a space to do some work, a TV (I didn't use), and a safe, which was great. In the morning, during the included breakfast, the staff was incredibly kind and attentive, and there were some other chatty guests to connect with. Overall, a good spot to stay!

Adjoining the two-story bank of rooms and the lobby/breakfast-dining-tables is a dense jungle where tropical birds chirp. An attractive setting. My single-bed room could have been brighter with stronger light bulbs, but when I requested a lamp to see my laptop keyboard, the desk clerk quickly and cheerfully supplied one. I probably should have asked for a wash cloth for showering, but that's a basic necessity. The bathroom-sink faucet had little pressure and the shower water was barely lukewarm or cooler; but those can be expected in quite inexpensive lodging. I asked for a paper cup to drink my wine, and a wine glass was readily provided. Every one of the staff members couldn't have been more accommodating and friendly. They even supplied me with an umbrella each time I ventured into the rain for food.
