My flight was delayed, and I arrived very late at night, around 2:30 a.m. Kenneth waited for me and made sure everything was ready. In the morning, he gave me great tips about transportation and the area. Excellent service and a warm welcome. Highly recommend!

We arrived earlier than expected and were admitted into our rooms which were spacious and comfortable. Great place to stay while waiting for a flight out of San Jose Airport. Beautiful secure grounds. Ideal for travelling families - plenty of space for children to run around after or before a plane journey.

The location is great- close to the Airport with no effect from it. Wonderful garden with a lot of birds (We saw our first Toucan there). The apartment is very clean, pleasant, comfortable and well equipped. Rolf, the host, was very nice and welcoming. We stayed there on our first and our last day in Costa Rica. Rolf gave us some good tips for the start of our trip and helped us a lot when we needed to do some arrangements before our flight back.

The owner was very helpful met us on arrival and answered all our questions. Great ;location for the airport only 10 mins away and a there is a food court with various styles of restaurants only ten minutes walk a way . The hotel does not look very inviting from the outside but once you enter the front door it is very sweet with a lovely lounge area and a very nice courtyard/garden. every thing is nicely decorated and clean.

We stayed after a long flight just for one night and it was perfect to rest and recover. This place has a great relaxed feel to it with comfortable communal areas. We were a family with 2 older teenagers and had 3 rooms, all well equipped and comfortable with excellent air-conditioning and bathroom facilities. The staff were very helpful and friendly and communication was excellent. The rooms were very comfortable and the ability to use the kitchen to make a little breakfast before we left was great. I wish we has stayed longer.

The staff was super friendly and helpful. I don’t know if there were other guests. The children were nice and well-behaving, but if you’re looking for a hostel-like place, this is not like that. I felt like staying in a family’s home.
