The hotel os convenient for the airport and there were multiple nearby dining options. The check in was very slow with some computer problems. Also the traffic noise in our room was very loud especially around 5-6pm. The front desk would have been willing to move us but they were no vacancy. Small bed and very basic room with no in room coffee.

I was SO impressed with this place. Clean, English speaking and very nice people. What impressed me the most was that they provide a taxi to the airport and will send a taxi to pick you up upon arrival of same. A first for me here. Breakfast was adequate, just a bit confusing for me. This is my go to from now on. Kudos Jose!!!

Do not rely on the “24/7 shuttle service” we had to find our way to and from the airport as they were not responsive or not available. I even tried asking them if I could schedule an airport pickup ahead of time and they said no just wait someone will answer, but that did not happen. However, the place was pretty clean and the breakfast was nice and convenient

The room was good, staff was nice my only complaint is the room is a bit noisy it faces a busy street, so it’s a bit loud to sleep. Other than that it’s a nice hotel

Hotel close to the airport. We stayed for 1 night because we had an early flight. They offer shuttle service to the airport which was great. We were able to walk to a close by bar to watch the Costa Rica football game. Very safe to walk and restaurants and bars close by. Rooms are clean. Breakfast is very minimal but is enough to fill you up. This is our 2nd time staying there for 1 night. Very convenient.
