But pack ear plugs - it's close to the rail tracks and tooting starts at 5.30 but it's not unpleasant. ##### Kate Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Mar 24, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The staff is extremely accommodating and made us feel at home.

Delicious breakfast, convenient to many restaurants. We'll be back! ##### Janice Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daryl T Mar 21, 2023 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort A Good small hotel, that meets my basic needs for my short stays in San Jose. Small Clean rooms, good cafe with the breakfast, reasonable priced and in a secure location. Bonus for being in the trendy neighborhood of Escalante. Which may make it the biggest bargain in this trendy area that is know for it galleries, restaurants and bars... Glamorous it is not, but comfy it is, in this old architectural gem. ##### Daryl T Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### M Feb 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Very pleased! Very attentive service. Hotel had character—in a good way! Train did not disturb me at all. It’s a bit worn—a broken tile here, faded blankets…but we were safe and comfortable and enjoyed the neighborhood. The free parking was what sold me on the place. Very pleased, will stay again when in San José. ##### M Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Kate Feb 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Excellent location, wonderful staff, small rooms but with all that you need. Hotel is very near a noisy railway, so bring earplugs! My biggest problem was a snoring neighbour who was so loud he could be heard from three rooms away. His poor wife... ##### Kate Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### LILIANA Nov 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Cute super vintage place. There is a small police station on same street so you feel extra safe. Dining is walking distance and many options. Room smelled old and bedding sheets looked old so did the furniture. Hot water in shower worked for a few seconds then turned cold. It wasn’t horrible but if your looking for something other than a quick night stay probably not your place. You also have to be ok with the creepy vintage stuff lol. ##### LILIANA Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Myriam Nov 11, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful place, very well located. The common spaces are very nice, room are small but very clean. It's a great way to stay in a "typical" costa rican house at a very low price. Employees are nice, excellent service, although almost none spoke English or French. But they were very helpful and did everything to help in every situation. The environment is nice, great neighbour, lots of nice restaurants and bars, down-town 15 min walk. Fully recommend. ##### Myriam Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Tomer Sep 11, 2023 Good location, friendly staff. Unfortunately it was very noisy. Couldn’t sleep the whole night. The door bell kept buzzing and people were loud after midnight. Reception didn’t do nothing about it. ##### Tomer Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Ronald Sep 16, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities My wife and I stayed there for five nights in a standard room in the back next to the kitchen. The hotel is old but very clean and attractively decorated. At the back of the hotel there is a garden and kitchen with a microwave and kettle for the guests to use. The front desk was attentive. It was generally quiet except for a couple of mornings at 6:00 AM. The only negatives were the extremely weak internet (being at the back of the hotel), the small rooms and the very large legs of the wooden bed frame which I kept hitting with my knee. But the positives outweigh the negatives and we would return. ##### Ronald Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Isabella Aug 10, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beds only had fitted and top sheets no bed covers, mysterious stains on all the covers and pillow cases. Staff was very rude telling us we were crazy for thinking there needed to be a second bed cover underneath, towels were disgusting and stained, walls were stained and there seemed to be a footprint on the ceiling of the bathroom. ##### Isabella Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Qinglin Feb 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I like this property because of its location, boutique, quiet and reasonable price. It is a large house and felt more like a home than a hotel. The small garden breakfast area was nice. The staffs were all kind, smiling and helpful. The airport pickup service took a lot of worry out for my late evening arrival with a price similar to a taxi. Uber is not legal in San Jose, therefore airport pickup is troublesome. I used Uber at other times without problem. The location of the hotel is excellent with walking distance to tourist spots in downtown. The neighborhood is upper-middle class and felt safe. They have different sized rooms according to your needs. I found out later that Hillary Clinton stayed there in 2005. The wife of the owner was a painter. She gave Hillary a flower painting. I would recommend it. ##### Qinglin Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### 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) > > [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 Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Casa-Conde-Hotel-Suites.h1219064.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Killarney Provincial Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Killarney-Provincial-Park-Hotels.0-l553248621562269372-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hampton by Hilton San Jose Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Suites-By-Hilton-San-Jose-Airport.h921872.Hotel-Information) > > [Spa Hotels in Collingwood](https://www.expedia.ca/Collingwood-Hotels-Spa-Hotel.0-0-d11938-tSpaHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [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) > > [Wyndham San Jose Herradura Hotel & Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Wyndham-San-Jose-Herradura-Hotel-Convention-Center.h1377921.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Mango](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hotel-Mango.h29702434.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Scottsdale](https://www.expedia.ca/Scottsdale-Hotels.d9829.Travel-Guide-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) > > [Barceló San José](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Barcelo-San-Jose.h788912.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Presidente](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hotel-Presidente.h1126992.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels.d178314.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Crowne Plaza San Jose La Sabana by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-San-Jose-Corobici.h441323.Hotel-Information) > > [Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts Punta Cana, Gourmet All Inclusive by Karisma](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Nickelodeon-Hotels-Resorts-Punta-Cana.h13145542.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Prince George (YXS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/yxs/edmonton-to-prince-george) > > [Flights from Kelowna (YLW) to Los Angeles (LAX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ylw/lax/kelowna-to-los-angeles) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Goffs (YHZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/yhz/montreal-to-halifax) > > [Flights from Delhi (DEL) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/del/yvr/delhi-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Kelowna (YLW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/ylw/calgary-to-kelowna) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Nashville](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Nashville.d178291.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Packages > [Thailand Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Thailand.d178.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Mexico](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/117/Mexico) > > [all inclusive vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations) > > [Vancouver Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver.d178315.Destination-Travel-Guides) ### General > [Visit Johnston Canyon](https://www.expedia.ca/Johnston-Canyon.dx6078323) > > [Visit Cabo San Lucas](https://www.expedia.ca/Cabo-San-Lucas.dx180032)
