The location was convenient to all the places I wanted to visit, but it felt a bit sketchy at night. The dining options were very good with a variety of choices. Overall, a comfortable and budget-friendly choice.

I found the hotel to be a mixed experience. While the rooms were basic and underwhelming compared to the rest of the property, they were spacious and comfortable. Unfortunately, the double and twin beds were not as cozy as I had hoped for. The service was kind and accommodating, although a bit vague at times. The hotel's location was perfect for exploring downtown San Jose, but I found the dining options to be lacking. Overall, it was a decent stay with some room for improvement.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positive and negative experiences. The room, although large and pretty with a nice bathroom, was occasionally noisy at night due to various disturbances. The service was incredibly accommodating and courteous, with a nice touch of complimentary truffles in the room. The location, though central and perfect for exploring, had some sketchy aspects. The dining experience was very good but could get busy. Overall, the facilities provided added value to my stay.

I was impressed by the spacious rooms in the heart of the city center, perfect for exploring tourist attractions. However, the room ambiance was a bit basic and depressing for the price point. The service was exceptional, with kind and helpful staff going above and beyond, even surprising us with a room upgrade on our honeymoon. The location was convenient with shops and restaurants nearby, but lacked the vibrant charm of San José. The dining experience offered a rich variety of tropical fruits and Costa Rican specialties, though some dishes were just okay.

The hotel had stylish rooms, but some practicality issues like no bedside table or alarm clock shelf. Although clean and tidy, the room lacked information on the hotel or areas. The cleanliness was excellent with a comfortable bed and a free safe box. However, noise from a generator and other bathrooms could be bothersome. The location was great for exploring San Jose with proximity to major attractions, museums, and restaurants. The dining experience was very good with freshly made eggs any style, though traditional meals were limited. The service was impressive, with English-proficient and friendly staff who exhibited patience with customers. The facilities were satisfactory overall.
