    There are BED BUGS. Stayed 3 nights and itching started on second day. I thought it was mosquito bite but it's still itchy even after my stay. Property is generally clean but it seems very old and needs some renovation. Front staffs didn't really understand English.. well they're open 24 hours anyways. And the airport shuttle is too expensive. $27 for one ride but if u take uber, it's not even $20.

    Place is conviently located and good bang for your buck. I used my frequent flyer miles to pay for 3 out of 4 nights that I stayed. Friendly staff, comfortable beds, clean all the way around! Water for those cool morning showers could of been warmer! Lots of bars in the surrounding areas. Museums and shopping areas close by. Highly recommended!!!

    Nice hotel - spacious rooms and not to far from a lot of museums.

    Also, there is a cinema next door which is nice if you are into that. :)

    Consistently good service at the front desk and at the rest of the building. (We have been coming there for a number of years and also took a group there that had a positive experience with this accommodation). Breakfast is served in the large lobby and it's abundant. Free coffee, tea & goodies all day (Coffee tables are not so handy to use at breakfast, however). Great location, walking distance to downtown. Nearby cozzy coffee house & restaurant that serves conscious, interesting lunchs at affordable price. Also a general & hindu cuisine restaurant at about 100m distance is good for lunch or supper. Internet connection is very good (it has boosters around the building) An occassional trolley-train running the bell when passing nearby is not impressive but one gets used to it. Hotel Taxi services to and from the accommodation to the airport are reliable and fair in price. Some rooms do not have proper tables or support for luggage. Some downstairs rooms could get some noise from the upper ones. Nonetheless, two small patios with nice plants, table & chairs are a plus! Recommended

    A nice hostel with plenty of different types of room options. Good value. The wifi is really good and the free breakfast in the morning is good (your pic of meal options of pinto, eggs, toast, fruit, coffee, tea).

    Reasonably priced. It had a great lounge to hang out in and chill which felt very homely. Good breakfast although nothing spectacular. Great for an over night stay in San Jose in a safe part of town.

    The facilities and everything is good enough. Only the service here is horrible, be careful with Roman and Alexandre. They sold me a tour and some activities in the tour were not included, at the end they didn't solve me anything and it seemed kind of robbed us; because they didn't want to give us a solution.

    Our favorite place to stay in San Jose, some of the rooms we've had are really big, some with big bathrooms and huge showers. Clean, quiet, really nice staff, especially David at the front desk, nice free breakfast with lots of choice, dependable shower pressure and hot water, yay. Good location and walking distance to some nice restaurants and the main Avenue.

    The bed was big but the mattress not so good, no hot water in the night and our room was far away from WiFi. Was perfect for one night.

    Nice rooms, good breakfast. Free coffee (with actual milk not powder). We totally liked it.

    Love it so much but I did have a roach in my room last time I was there. The street that's it on is pretty dirty though.

    Location fair, spacious rooms, more than one lobby area and a secluded tv room, two great small patios to sit, service varies according to front desk operator but it's fair, rooms could be old or renovated but most are spacious with large bathrooms but, in two of the rooms, "deficient" electric hot shower system. Cleaning needs improvement. Good price and safe accommodation (safe controlled entry to hotel operated by front desk)

    Two stars because it was clean and they spoke English and French.

    Otherwise, this is a hostel masquerading as a hotel. You can pay for a private room for 50 USD OR 71 USD for a balcony. Total rip off, some rooms have full beds, some king, some have twin, some have TVs, others not, but the price difference is not reflected in the room disparity in any way.

    All in all, the staff were unobliging and somewhat rude. The train which runs approximately every 45 minutes is less than one block away and blows the horn incessantly beginning at around 5:30am (and constantly thoughout the day and into the night) which sounds like an air horn in the very room where most people are trying to sleep.

    Located in a very bad part of San Jose with razor wire on nearly every building.

    Would not recommend this 'hotel' to my worst enemy.

    If they only had a pool, but then it wouldn't be anywhere near the price. Excellent location, great staff, comfy bed, silky sheets. I don't know you can beat the place for value. Great resources within walking distance. Calle 21 is full of bars that locals hang at.
    The guesthouse had a real hostel vibe to it but with private rooms. I felt that my belongings were very safe there.

    Somewhat large and clean room. Good location. Old house, feels like a B&b or hostel.
