We booked here at the last minute because of a delayed flight causing us to miss HOU connection and arriving in SJO ten hours late. This property is very secure, and the restaurant meal we had was delicious (caught them just before closing). The restaurant and other staff we met were very friendly and welcoming. We arrived at night and left early in the morning so can't say much about the amenities as we were only onsight long enough to sleep and try to get back on our original itinerary.

I would highly recommend staying here if you're in San Jose. It's a quiet oasis amongst the outskirts of the city. The property is very clearly well-maintained. The staff were all amazing. We had a garden view room so although close to the road, we were not bothered at all by road noise. Beautiful & definitely recommend the restaurant as well. The included breakfast was great, but we also had dinner here and the food and service was superb!
