Positive Reviews

positive:

Great central location

Most guests were very satisfied with the location of the hotel. They described it as being in the heart of San Jose, on a busy and vibrant street and with many restaurants, shops and bars in the immediate neighborhood.

positive:

Nice views from the higher floor

Guest’s allocated rooms higher up in the building mentioned that they had fantastic views out over the capital, which were especially attractive at night.

positive:

Very clean throughout

Many guests remarked that both their rooms and the public areas of the hotel were kept in tip top shape by the housekeeping staff for the duration of their stay.


Negative Reviews

negative:

Poor English language skills

A number of guests mentioned that the staff had exceptionally poor English language skills. Those without at least rudimentary Spanish had a very hard time both understanding staff and making their needs known to them.

negative:

Very poor Wi-Fi

It was hard trying to find a kind word written about the Wi-Fi system. On the contrary, many guests reported that it was both unreliable, not connecting at all at some times, as well as too slow for their purposes. Many felt it wasn’t even worth trying to use the system.

negative:

Rooms are very small

A number of guests reported that their room was very small. They felt that, given the price and general category of the hotel, the rooms should be a bit bigger. They did not like being crammed into a relatively small space, especially those traveling as a couple or otherwise sharing the room.
