Not a Hotel
This is not a hotel it really should not be listed on Hotels.com I had an early morning flight and asked for a wake up call and taxi and got neither I missed my flight and it probably cost me an additional $500 The lady running the place was delightful and I couldn’t bring myself to complain about how she trashed my plans I agree to the wake up call and taxi and she could only respond “I’m sorry” when she forgot to do so

The host is extremely friendly and accommodating. If it wasn't for them, my girlfriend and I would have missed our flight back to the states. The room was clean and had a convenient private bathroom. The only downside was no AC, but the room stayed very cool at night. Should I return to San Jose, I will definitely stay here again.

Warm and Friendly Experience
Truly wonderful stay. Feels exactly as if to be visiting family and staying in the comfort and warmth of their home. The home is 10 minutes from airport using Uber or taxi. The atmosphere appeared to be safe and I did not feel uncomfortable as a solo traveling female. I had a private room with my own private bathroom. Rooms are super clean, as are the bathrooms. Breakfast is personalized and freshly cooked with a great selection of local fruit — Despite not speaking any Spanish, there dud not seem to be a major language barrier.

Host was fabulous! If you are expecting a hotel this is not you place. Instead it's a room in a house in a great neighborhood not far from the airport. We had to leave early so we missed the great looking breakfast the host was preparing!
