Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The service was prompt and courteous, room was spotless, bed was perfect, air conditioning made a perfect nights sleep. The hotel was well designed along a hilltop with gorgeous views of San Jose in a quiet neighborhood from all the rooms and lobby. Art accents added personality. Wish I had time to dip in the pool overlooking the city. Breakfast was delightful. Can’t say enough positive about Posada El Quixote! Definitely would return.

My wife and I stayed here for one night before flying out of SJO. The property is beautiful and the views from the pool and living room are incredible both day and night. The property is in a great location and the history behind it is really interesting. There are a few friendly cats that live on the property (one of them hung out under the pool chairs we were sitting on). The free, made to order breakfast was delicious and quick. The only minor inconvenience we had was that the manual gates to enter the parking area were closed and it was unclear whether we were expected to keep them closed after entering/leaving the property

First impressions was “what have I got us into”! Location was not near much and not nearly what was depicted in photos. Booked a Superior Garden view that was in the basement but did have a walkout patio that was dirty and under water. Maids only cleaned when requested. Breakfast was minimal and tasteless. On the positive side the city view from the top floor was spectacular!

The whole facility was incredible - super clean, breakfast was great, view and grounds were spectacular, and the staff - Andreas and Ivan were so helpful and wonderful to chat with! Only improvement my wife suggests is providing a mattress topper option as the beds were firm. (No issue for me!) Oh need to mention the cats - she loved them!

Absolutely beautiful inside and out!! Staff was wonderful. We were so tired from driving from Puerto Viejo to San Jose that we just stayed at the hotel the whole night. So we didn't venture out, we just doordashed dinner to the hotel. Breakfast was great! Quiet area away from the hussle of the big city. Great views. The only downfall was parking but we didn't have any real issues with it because the staff had it organized, there was just limited space. Would definitely recommend and we would not hesitate to stay again!
