This is a great hotel to stay at for a night if you’re just getting or leaving from SJO. Free shuttle, free breakfast, spacious and clean rooms. The vending machines and store are kind of pricey but if you can, try and go to a nearby store for water. The only downside I can think of is maybe it doesn’t have a mini fridge but not a big deal.

Like...close to ATM (casino) and restaurant (Denny's). Big problem - hotel staff barged into room with only brief knock at 11 p m. As we were getting into bed, allegedly to check if room was clean. Only a brief apology, and Mgr did not follow up with me the next day as requested.

Services were readily available for Denny's, but not like you see here. The food was brought out steaming hot and tasted delicious. It appeared to be new and as always, the wait staff did not come back, so one issue we always had to work around, but other than that, the hotel was in immaculate shape and had all the amenities!

I had stayed at this hotel multiple times now, it’s my hotel of choice when I want to stay close to the airport in San José. The staff is very professional and helpful. The facilities and surroundings are very well maintained. The pool area is very nice. The rooms are always spotless. The breakfast was acceptable. The shuttle service from and to the airport is a huge plus. Will keep coming back!
