Parking was easy enough in a secure lot around the corner. Breakfast was a highlight, with an array of fresh fruits, gallo pinto, and scrambled eggs. Our room (35) had an exceedingly small bathroom and had windows facing the street, though noise was not bad. Our television did not work, but the bed was comfortable enough. ##### Sarah Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jul 12, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### One thing marred it Our room’s bathroom’s ceiling had black mold.

The place is clean but all the furniture in the common areas are very dirty. And please put a reading chair in the room. Our bathroom was new and beautiful. The breakfast was delicious. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mackenzie Jun 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### I would go back. But always want the facts upfront The positives: the breakfast was DELICIOUS! Friendly staff and clean environment. The rooms we were in did not have AC, although that was advertised. Be aware, it is an old hotel so only stairs (consider for luggage carrying purposes). Our first room would not lock due to a key being broken off into the lock but they were quick and accommodating and got us in another room. ##### Mackenzie Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mario Jul 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Door was flimsy. Pool was advertised ridiculously with wide angle lens photo. It’s more of a plunge/dip to cool off in than a pool to swim. Tv was impossible to figure out or turn on. ##### Mario Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Cheryl Aug 26, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Pool and pictures are outdated ##### Cheryl Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Marc Nov 16, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel reminds me something you would find in Morocco as it had that kind of architect. The hotel was in a convenient area that was walk-able to the most visited areas. Pool was in a weird spot where if people were dining, you would be looked at and we didn´t see anyone use it. Their hot tub in it was broken. I would suggest they should just renovate it and just make it into a sitting area with plants and flowers. Rooms were clean but there are no elevators so it would be difficult for those that have issues with stairs. They do have a very small quaint restaurant by the pool but we went out for dinner during our two night stay. Staff were very friendly. Thank you for the hospitality. ##### Marc Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Eva Oct 10, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The hotel service was not good. The pictures that are shown on the site do not reflect the actual property. Also, the hotel is a 3 start but everything provided in the room is more like a 2 star. We had a flooding from the shower and the price for 1 night is expensive considering they do not provide you with anything (besides towels and hand soap). The hotel needs to upgrade their rooms and service for the prices they charge per night/room. ##### Eva Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Aug 20, 2022 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities We were charged over $80 USD for breakfast. Later I checked my email receipt from the original reservation and it said breakfast was included. The hotel website also says breakfast is included. I’m very disappointed. All noises from the hallway and seating area carried into our room on the first floor. My kids were exhausted but couldn’t sleep because of other guests making noise in common areas at 9:30 pm. The guests in the common area finally left at 10 pm but we could hear dishes being washed in the kitchen and the pool being cleaned until after 11 pm. The hotel was not dull, so I wish we had been given a room further from the noisy front desk/ restaurant. Speaking of the pool, when we arrived The hotel pool was not usable - water was dirty. There is no A.C. Fine, but the ceiling fan was useless and the only window that opened up was in the bathroom. We had to close the bathroom door because of the noise but it became too hot in the room. Finally, our bathroom and bedroom flooded when I showered! Water flowed from the shower in the opposite direction of the drain, pouring onto the floor and insert the door halfway to the bed. And when my husband went to ask for more towels to replace the ones we had used to clean the mess, it became clear this is something that is a regular occurrence. If I had paid $100 USD for this I wouldn’t be too upset. But with the breakfast up charge, it’s almost $200 USD. Not worth it!!! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hector Oct 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excelente y muy bien ubicado.

In costa rica for a week with 4 different hotels throughout the country and this one by far the bad one. Lobby was cute but room was filthy. Old furniture that is scratched and beat up from the tables to the shelves. Super thin pillows and toilet paper. Walls had huge stains all over them. Nothing like the photos. Also the room doesnt seem to have AC, i turned it down to 20 and it never got cool, woke up in the middle of the night sweaty. I stood on the bed to feel the smallest trickle of air come out of a single vent. We went to take a shower and no hot water. Called front desk and they said they would check on the boiler, then a callback 5 minutes later they tell us its broken and there wont be any hot water. The breakfast was above my expectstions and thats because the night before was so bad i expected it to be on par eith the room. Would not recommend this place, and I've stayed all over latin america in all different kinds of hotels and hostels. This one not worth it in my opinion. ##### Juan Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Faby May 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excelente ubicacion ##### Faby Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Port Dover](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Dover-Hotels.d6352969.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Gran Hotel Costa Rica, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Gran-Hotel-Costa-Rica.h15745.Hotel-Information) > > [Casa Conde Hotel & Suites](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) > > [Sheraton Fallsview Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Sheraton-Fallsview-Hotel.h194534.Hotel-Information) > > [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) > > [Luxhigh Hotel San José](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hotel-Del-Rey-Casino.h13333495.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) > > [Adults Only Resorts & Hotels in Cancun](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Adults-Only-Resorts.0-0-d179995-tAdultsOnlyResorts.Travel-Guide-Filter-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) > > [Cottages Ontario](https://www.expedia.ca/Ontario-Cottages.d11178-aaCottages.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [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) > > [Hilton Garden Inn San Jose La Sabana](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-San-Jose-La-Sabana.h10579877.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Rocky Mountain House](https://www.expedia.ca/Rocky-Mountain-House-Hotels.d10606.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) > > [Hotel Mango](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Jose-Hotels-Hotel-Mango.h29702434.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [flights from billy bishop toronto city airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/ytz/flights-from-billy-bishop-toronto-city-airport) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Houston (IAH)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/iah/toronto-to-houston) > > [Air Canada](https://www.expedia.ca/Air-Canada-Flights.cAC.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Detroit](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/178255/flights-from-detroit) > > [Flights from Abbotsford (YXX) to Edmonton (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yxx/yeg/abbotsford-to-edmonton) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Oranjestad (AUA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/aua/toronto-to-oranjestad) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Edmonton (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/yeg/winnipeg-to-edmonton) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Charlottetown](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Charlottetown.d4675929.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Packages > [Nashville Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Nashville.d178291.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Disney Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Disney.d3000453867.Destination-Travel-Guides)
