I broke my phone during my trip and the lady that runs it went out of her way to help me order a taxi ride on a local ride app with her phone to make sure I got the airport safely to get home. She didn’t speak English but that didn’t stop her being a great person and helping me out. Showers could use more warmer water but overall not issues ##### Ryan Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ivette Feb 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is a friendly place to meet other people. Travelers are pretty easy going; they come and go and are pretty sociable there, so I really enjoyed that. Especially if you're coming by yourself, you won't feel alone there. You get to meet people from all over the world; it was a phenomenal experience overall for me. The only thing I would like to add is that they do serve a light breakfast so don't expect eggs, bacon or anything like that. Breakfast is mostly 2 types of fruit, bread, butter, jam, cereal, milk, coffee and tea, that's all but you are welcome to cook anything you want for yourself in the kitchen. The host Federico and his mother Rita are wonderful and have a wealth of knowledge about what to go and what to do Just remember to stay safe no matter where you go! ##### Ivette Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Carlos Dec 4, 2024 ##### Carlos Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, San Jose Aeropuerto, Costa Rica](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Country-Inn-Suites-By-Radisson.h1039787.Hotel-Information) > > [Casa Conde Apartamentos](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Casa-Conde-Hotel-Suites.h1219064.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham San Jose Herradura Hotel & Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Wyndham-San-Jose-Herradura-Hotel-Convention-Center.h1377921.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Belleville](https://www.expedia.ca/Belleville-Hotels.d6057820.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Cariari - San Jose Costa Rica](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Cariari-San-Jose-Costa-Rica.h118803.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn San Jose La Sabana](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-San-Jose-La-Sabana.h10579877.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express San Jose Costa Rica Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-San-Jose-Costa-Rica-Airport.h2303711.Hotel-Information) > > [Barceló San José](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Barcelo-San-Jose.h788912.Hotel-Information) > > [Inn At The Forks](https://www.expedia.ca/Winnipeg-Hotels-Inn-At-The-Forks.h1089238.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Lisbon](https://www.expedia.ca/Humberto-Delgado-Airport-Hotels.0-aLIS-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Costa Rica Backpackers - Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Costa-Rica-Backpackers-Hostel.h9411196.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Grano de Oro](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hotel-Grano-De-Oro.h994383.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton San Jose Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Suites-By-Hilton-San-Jose-Airport.h921872.Hotel-Information) > > [Dreams Huatulco Resort & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Maria-Huatulco-Hotels-Dreams-Huatulco-Resort-Spa.h889398.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Presidente](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hotel-Presidente.h1126992.Hotel-Information) > > [Gran Hotel Costa Rica, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Gran-Hotel-Costa-Rica.h15745.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza San Jose La Sabana by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-San-Jose-Corobici.h441323.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Mango](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hotel-Mango.h29702434.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Jeju City (CJU) to Busan (PUS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/cju/pus/jeju-to-busan) > > [flights from los angeles intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/lax/flights-from-los-angeles-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Budapest (BUD)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/bud/toronto-to-budapest) ### Activities ### Packages > [Las Vegas Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas.d178276.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas Sign](https://www.expedia.ca/Welcome-To-Fabulous-Las-Vegas-Sign-Las-Vegas-Strip.d6232224.Vacation-Attraction) ### Vacation Rentals
