Very charming hotel, ideally located just around the corner of the food district. The room was not big but nice and comfortable. Good hygiene. Staff was very friendly. Perfect for a short stay!

Because the rooms are not very well insulated and located next to the lobby, you can here what's going on in there quite well. Fortunately it's not a really busy and loud hotel so it didn't really bother us. Also there is an unguarded train track right behind the hotel, meaning the trains sound their horn every few minutes early in the morning... So earplugs are advised.

The enclosed garden was lovely and great for families with kids. Staff was very helpful and friendly. That was the highlight. As a single-level boutique hotel, we could put the kids to bed and stay in the common area with our room (and nearly all rooms) in sight. This is a big plus for parents with little kids. At the same time, the door blocked noise well and the hotel was quiet.

The rooms are not equipped with a coffee machine, mugs or glasses. The plugs are hard to access.

The building and reception area is a very pretty historic house and the style runs through the rooms with colourful touches like patterned tiles and brightly painted walls. Our room had thoughtful extras like a hairdryer, hidden wardrobe and the shower was hot and high pressure. The staff were lovely - held my parking space when we were late to arrive at night and the whole stay was very reasonably priced.

The building is very nice, the room was small but nice and clean, so was the bathroom. The patio was very beautiful. The location is good, the neighbourhood is rich and safe, so perfect if it's what you're looking for. Reception is open 24h and we were received at 3 in the morning, so, again, excellent service.

we couldn't have breakfast because it was just past 10. ok, a bit late maybe, but we arrived at 3 in the morning and we would have appreciated some flexibility. Neighbourhood is very expensive.

The staff was what made the different. All were helpful, courteous and effective. Breakfast was just right and convenient. I'll return here next time in San José.

The first night we were startled by the train passing nearby, but after that, it wasn't an issue anymore.

We were pleasantly surprised to find the hotel is located in a quiet street in the Barrio Escalante district, which has many hip restaurants, bars, and cafes. Our stay in this historical, charming hotel felt like staying in a home. The staff was helpful and super friendly; also, free parking for our rental car.

The hotel has a very good location close to Barrio Escalante, where you can find many nice cafes and restaurants. The hotel itself has a nice little backyard where you can have your breakfast outside. The rooms are simple but spacious. The hotel staff is super friendly.

A very cozy hotel at a low price. It is very good that it is possible with pets. It took us a long time to sort out the hot water, but still it is there, you just need to wait-drain the cold. The staff is kind and helpful. There was a small problem, but it was solved very quickly!

There is no mat in the shower, you walk around the room carrying water
