The room was clean and quiet sufficient for our short stay. There is a fair amount of traffic noise, which was workable. The main problem was the pair of barking dogs also staying in the building. They barked loudly every 30-60 minutes all night long. It was not a restful night of sleep for us and would likely deter us from returning.

Room with no window about the size of a king size bed. Hard to find no signage. With help of neighbours were able to find address but it took a while to get host to respond, ended up we were standing out front still unsure of location. Found out we were given wrong room, as another guest was also confused .

A convenient smaller property located 5 mins from sjo Airport. Modern and clean rooms, but no a/c. Nice backyard to sit in with cooler air than room. Needs better signage or directions for uber/taxi.

No one was there cab driver could not find. I had no way to get ahold of anyone. I had to find another hotel. This is a bad way to run a business. I will be asking for a refund.Not sure this place is real.

Not what we expected. We won't go back.
First of all, this is not a hotel, it's a collection of bedrooms. There is a shared fridge out in the back and a small back yard, although no chairs to sit out there. Our room, with one double bed was very small, with no place to put anything - no shelf, no table, and only a couple of hooks on the walls. We had only one small suitcase. If you are traveling with a large suitcase or several pieces of luggage, you'll have difficulty. The room had one window which looked out into the garage. A vehicle arrived in the night and parked with its headlights inches away from the window. The place was hard to find because you have to find the number, there are no signs. The staff were very responsive, though, when we had a maintenance issue. The room was spotlessly clean, and the bed was very comfortable. The area was fine to walk during the day, but we were warned not to be out past 10 pm. Although it looks close to the large mall, the mall is not easily accessible because of a large highway in between. Although it seems close the the airport, with traffic the drive actually took 20-25 minutes. All in all, quite overpriced for what it is.

Scam
Not responsive host - sent several messages including through hotels.com. One link in confirmation message pointed out the wrong location. Fee transfer in confirmation message but I still had to pay 10 USD for the very short ride to the airport.

Lille værelse, dårlig lufthavnstransport
Meget lille værelse, så ret dyrt for hvad det er. Det var meget varmt. Der var 2 fans, men den ene duede ikke rigtig så kun 1 ud af 4 senge kunne få ventilation. De havde givet os den forkerte kode til døren, så vi kunne ikke komme ind. Heldigvis havde vi netværk og kunne kontakte dem på whatsapp. Det værste var dog lufthavnstransporten. Den kom 15 minutter for sent, kørte virkelig råddent og da vi ankom til lufthavnen sagde han at vi skulle skynde os at tage vores bagage ud nu, fordi der var politi? Rimelig skummel type.

Muy bonito y nítido todo. Excelente si llevas carro. Lo único es que hace bastante calor, no hay aire condicionado por lo menos en la habitación donde nos hospedamos. Bien limpio y bien cercano al aeropuerto.
