10/10 Excellent

"We arrived into SJO at 10pm, their 24 hour free shuttle was super easy to catch just after exiting customs. The bed was very comfortable and had amazing pillows. The partnership with Alamo Rental Cars was great as the next morning our car rental was dropped off to us. We’ll stay here again on our way out of the country as they have an easy drop-off for the keys of the rental. For anyone flying into San Jose, I would 100% recommend this location for your first night. Hotel staff was friendly and helpful. Morning breakfast included was pretty good. Thank you!"
