El hotel se encuentra en el centro de San José por lo que caminando puedes llegar fácilmente a museos y lugares para comer y cenar. El desayuno es bueno, el estacionamiento un poco pequeño, personal amable. Un plus es su jugo de moras en el desayuno, buenisimo! El único inconveniente es que había un solo elevador funcionando por lo que era un poco tardado para subir/bajar.

Hotel is dated and not accessible
The hotel is older and could stand some safety repairs to access their restaurant, elevator, and rooms. They have removed what must have been 3-4 stairs and filled them in with a very steep dangerous narrow ramp which is not readily walkable. Current access is a safety hazard. Rooms are not generally accessible due to over-all stairs. My room had no window, no chair, no working refrigerator. It did have an AC unit which I did not need to use. It had a TV with some English programming. Hotel location is excellent in center of San Jose. Walking distance to Cathedral, Indoor Market, Jade Museum, Gold Museum, National Museum, National Theater.

I booked a queen size bed room for a 10-night stay and the hotel gave us a cheaper 1 double bed size room. The queen size bed room or 2 double bed size room were both not available. We cannot fit in the bed that was given to us and this is not the accommodation I booked and paid for. We were told by the reception that we have to PAY $200 MORE to upgrade to the bed size room we booked and already paid for. SCAM and deceiving advertising… listing and charging a queen size bed but gives a downgraded double size bed room! After contacting Expedia for 3 consecutive days and proving the hotel manager that the bed is too small to pass as queen bed, I got a refund on the 3rd day and moved to Holiday Inn nearby which was cheaper and much nicer and has a big pool.

Good value for the price! The hotel has a unique layout and some cool features - like translucent floors and automatic lighting. The front desk staff are friendly and helpful. The complimentary breakfast was pretty good and filling as well and the chef has a lovely personality that makes you feel welcome. It's important to note the ceiling height in the rooms is quite low. I'm short (5 foot) so it didn't bother me but if you're tall, it could be a problem.

San Jose is a rough town. Hotel staff was grand in every way. Need more outlets near the bed. Spa, sauna and gym all closed!

Professional staff who made check-in seemless. Location is central to most attractions in the core of the city. The room is spacious with a bedroom area separated from a living room area; a lot of space.

There are absolutely no windows in the rooms unless you pay extra. The ceilings are uncomfortably low if u get a room on a higher floor and there’s no proper ventilation so you will spend your first night congested and stuffy and uncomfortable. Our first room had no microwave and on the second night, bugs climbed up from the drains and crawled all over my hygiene items. Thankfully, the staff was nice enough to upgrade me to a better room after that and I was thankful that that one had a window. The elevator was also barely functional and quite frankly very scary to operate. It says there’s a spa, but it costs between 30-100 dollars a session depending on what you want done. It is not complimentary and there’s also no pool. This should not be considered a 4 star hotel. The location is quite literally horrendous but I only found out after my trip that San Jose is considered the “ghetto”. I learned from some locals that this area can be very dangerous and people will try to steal your phones. This hotel is an almost 30 minute drive from San Jose airport so it’s not really convenient. There’s a really amazing market next to it tho that made it a little worth it. If you have the opportunity, pick a different hotel our you will regret it. The staff are amazing but the hotel itself is… ick.

Dear Raeann,Kind regards from all the staff at Urban Green Hotel & Suites, Costa Rica.We appreciate your time spent on our satisfaction survey; It is very important to us to gain your insight into your experience during your first visit and highlight any relevant opportunities for improvement. We are very sorry that this first impression did not meet your expectations, and you can be fully assured that your comments and suggestions regarding the service in general are very well received;We are very sorry that you were not satisfied with the room you reserved; rooms with windows facing the outside are of a higher category than the one reserved by you; It is also worth mentioning that none of the windows in the entire building can be opened, this is due to security protocol, they are completely sealed.To offer a better experience, we granted a complimentary upgrade twice as high as your category, which is why the room had a microwave and other amenities.Our hotel offers complementary sauna, steam bath and gym service, the spa service is reserved in advance and at an additional cost.We are located in the Greater Metropolitan Area, just like most cities in other countries, it is the busiest place and we always advise traveling with caution, however, the city allows you to travel and enjoy the culture and infrastructure of our country.Our Management Committee is aware to avoid any future inconvenience or unpleasant and unusual situations like the ones you mentioned to us.Sincerely,

A great hotel. Modern, clean, very comfy, great wifi and superb bed. Staff extremely helpful and accomodating. Centrally located minutes from National Thetare and pre Columbian Museum. Near lots of eateries, shopping, phone shop for SIM card and supermarket round the corner. Is very quiet and in safe area. Loved my stay here and thorougly recommend it. Dennis and Liliana, the breakfast guys are so friendly, chatty and fun, a great asset to the hotel, as are they reception staff. There is superb free breakfast.

Very nice, centrally located, clean and very good breakfast. Only disappointed when my nephew, who booked a room shortly before we arrived, got one with no window and we had a balcony. Besides that I would return.

Close to main avenue and few attractions. Surround area must be very careful. Team was awesome at checking in and departure. Complementary breakfast was so good. Room was big, shower with great water pressure. Very clean, quiet at night. Garage was little hard to park but convenient.

Everything was ok. Sadly one of the guest was assaulted outside by a thief, the area is not bad but need to be aware. The front desk was kind, check in fast, hotel clean and well illuminated. Hotel close to main avenue, national theater, park and cathedral. Dennis in the restaurant was amazing. This young man prepare the breakfast every morning and the food is fantastic. To management, take care of Dennis, he is a great asset for the hotel.

I liked the modern design of the interior. The shower, bedding and furniture was topnotch. The picture I saw online of the exterior was deceiving. It was not nearly as appealing as pictured. This was disappointing. The food was mediocre. Is there a napkin shortage in Costa Rica? I probably wouldn't stay there again
