Rooms provide no privacy. Anyone can hear even if you fart. Bed sheets must be replaced [they are washed, but maybe because they're old]. No A/C. And once again, no privacy.

Cockroach party. Literally felt like I had to beg for room service, towels, toilet paper, garbage changes etc. we literally got in trouble for TALKING the room at late hours. The walls are extremely paper thin. And there is a “window” that faces towards the hallway in the bathroom so all noise carries throughout the building. There is no AC. The worst part of it all was I felt like I was being scammed because when my guest would come visit, one of the staff would charge 5,000 colones and some wouldn’t. So I wasn’t sure if the money was getting pocketed. The hotel is very close to San Jose central market and all the hot spots. But it is located on a weird one way corner that a lot of Ubers have difficulty picking up from therefore they would cancel a lot and no near by taxis :(.

No English speaking channels on the TVThe MTS did not work… frustratingGood clean economical roomWith private bath.

I like the location, halfway between the cathedral and Sabana park.There's always someone at the front desk.The gate is locked, so you ring a bell for someone to open it. Feels safe.I arrived at midnight, and was able to get into my room.I had some problem with an ATM machine, and one lady at the front desk helped me to call the bank.Fan works, but very noisy.Pretty good wifi.Now the negative: no place to hang anything. No cups. Street noise and the door bell are not good for light sleepers. Thin curtain.Overall, worth the price.

budget friendly helpful staff, convenient location

Not really worth it considering the price

I reserved 2 months before and text them 3 days before to ask about the check in because my flight arrived at 12 am and they answered that there is not problem but when we arrived at midnight under the rain the said: no reservations and no room available, then we had to paid a taxi to another hotel.

It is a great place for the price. We stayed there in a pinch when our travel plans didn't go as planned. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The rooms are a bit small, but that's fine if you're just looking for someplace clean to rest for the night on a budget. Also, the two restaurants on the first floor had very good food and great service.

Great Place to Stay on a Budget

The staff were really nice and helped me out but the rooms were really small. The price was very reasonable.
