A great hotel for a night near the airport. The area looks rough....window bars and razor wire abound, but I think it's just because it's inner city. No AC, and the fan didn't do much to cool the room. Room was small. Breakfast was a nice surprise, simple but good and delivered to the table.

Near the airport and quaint little town.
My husband and I stayed here for the night before we headed onward. The hotel is located 1.3k from the airport and if you are ambitious enough to walk it, you could. Hotel provided us with taxi help in the morning with taxi cab costung no more $4-$5. Our one night stay was perfect. In the evening when we got in we walked around the square and the near by mercado. There are lots of great coffee shops and restaurants around. The following morning we woke up to a free continental breakfast. Fresh fruits, toast and coffee. The owners are really nice and attententive and really want you to feel at home. Definitely recommend staying here especially if you have a layover or early flight. Or even if you want to check out San Jose area.

Hot night\Cold wake up.
Staff was very nice but somehow I missed that it is in the city (I knew) and didn't have air conditioning or hot water. I picked the place because of the proximity to the SJO airport (4 KM) since I had an early flight. Without AC or the ability to open the windows because of the city noise it was hard to sleep, but the cold shower at 3 am certainly woke me up fast.

Not sure how the value compares to other hotels
The man at the front desk was very nice and helpful. The room was small, bed was uncomfortable and the sheets were paper thin. There was a fan, but no a/c. Had to pay for overnight parking at a lot a couple of blocks away. Breakfast was toast with butter/jam, coffee, juice, and fresh fruit.
