Liked: Staff & service
It was just a very simple place with not a lot of extras. We had no hand towel for the sink but there was a wash cloth hanging--wasnt sure if it was clean or not....but did have a few towels for the shower. The staff was amazing and communicated well prior to our arrival and were waiting for us when we arrived after midnight after our plane was delayed 3 hours. They were very helpful and welcoming. Breakfast was included and simple but delicous.
it was very clean and everything you needed. It was in the room awesome.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Property is not as described nor located where indicated. Too dangerous and not local to the airport
Tiffany on the desk was brilliant, so helpful and her English was amazing, as was the young man who was there as well. Tiffany sorted a taxi for us and was so helpful. The room was clean and comfortable.
Great spot to stay when either arriving to San Jose or getting ready to leave the country. Some one at the desk 24/7. Will definitely stay again when traveling to Costa Rica!
