The proximity to the airport, the price, the airport shuttle service is what brought me in to put my money down. This place is very clean very quiet and I would stay here again. The next time I come through.

Bare bones, but the room was clean and the bed comfortable. There was bottled water in the room and a hot shower (which in Costa Rica is not always a given). I was pleased, too, that they did come pick me up at the airport even though my plane arrived after stated shuttle hours.

Hotels.com failure

I did not stay. I was unable to arrange transport from airport even after calling, I took a taxi. I refused to stay because it is located in an unsavory area, looked like a regular house with fences--looked dangerous. Unable to contact Hotels.com for help; unable to cancel. Had taxi take me to a safe hotel where I felt safe.

A convenient smaller property located 5 mins from sjo Airport. Modern and clean rooms, but no a/c. Nice backyard to sit in with cooler air than room. Needs better signage or directions for uber/taxi.

Room with no window about the size of a king size bed. Hard to find no signage. With help of neighbours were able to find address but it took a while to get host to respond, ended up we were standing out front still unsure of location. Found out we were given wrong room, as another guest was also confused .

Scam

Not responsive host - sent several messages including through hotels.com. One link in confirmation message pointed out the wrong location. Fee transfer in confirmation message but I still had to pay 10 USD for the very short ride to the airport.

Not what we expected. We won't go back.

First of all, this is not a hotel, it's a collection of bedrooms. There is a shared fridge out in the back and a small back yard, although no chairs to sit out there. Our room, with one double bed was very small, with no place to put anything - no shelf, no table, and only a couple of hooks on the walls. We had only one small suitcase. If you are traveling with a large suitcase or several pieces of luggage, you'll have difficulty. The room had one window which looked out into the garage. A vehicle arrived in the night and parked with its headlights inches away from the window. The place was hard to find because you have to find the number, there are no signs. The staff were very responsive, though, when we had a maintenance issue. The room was spotlessly clean, and the bed was very comfortable. The area was fine to walk during the day, but we were warned not to be out past 10 pm. Although it looks close to the large mall, the mall is not easily accessible because of a large highway in between. Although it seems close the the airport, with traffic the drive actually took 20-25 minutes. All in all, quite overpriced for what it is.

Un buen lugar para pasar una noche al llegar o salir al aeropuerto. Debe mejorar su rotulación ya que ea difícil de encontrar. Podrían añadir aire ya que solo cuenta com ventilador y no tiene ventana aunque estuvo fresca la noche.

The room was clean and quiet sufficient for our short stay. There is a fair amount of traffic noise, which was workable. The main problem was the pair of barking dogs also staying in the building. They barked loudly every 30-60 minutes all night long. It was not a restful night of sleep for us and would likely deter us from returning.
