“This adults-only hotel feels surprisingly fresh, with updated facilities and a restaurant that clearly takes pride in its food, especially the brunch. Set in a calmer, safer part of San José, it's near enough to downtown while offering a more relaxed vibe with some nice local spots; plus, the staff seems genuinely invested in making stays go smoothly. I would recommend it for travellers looking for a more personalized hotel experience.”

charming stay

the location proved convenient. i found the cafe within the building a real plus, though its early closing time is something to note.. next door, a very good pub offered tasty food and friendly staff.

I encountered an issue with the hot water heater in the shower. It produced only a trickle or no heat at all. there was no smaller lights, only one overhead lamp was installed in the room.

The included breakfast was quite good. I had the gallo pinto option with platanos maduros, bread, avocado, and eggs. The staff were friendly and helpful . The location is convenient, with a cafe on-site, though it closes early.

The noise from the traffic outside was a bit much. Big trucks caused the room to shake.
