"Excelente localización para ver todo lo relevante de San José, caminando si así lo deseas. El personal del hotel es muy atento. Las comidas en su restaurante El Patio, muy buenas, al igual que el desayuno incluido. Hasta un desayuno carry-out nos dieron el día de nuestra salida, que era a las 4:00 am. Tuvimos un inconveniente con el aire acondicionado de la habitación y nos resolvieron de manera atenta y rápida. Hasta un upgrade de la habitación nos dieron. 100% recomendado!"
