Very nice name Hemingway, but not exactly what expected
Noisy, half clean, minimal bathroom, but good breakfast.

unforgettable charm
The artwork on the walls made Hemingway Inn a special place. I enjoyed the smiles and conversations I had with the staff who are prompt in their services. On my first morning, they set me on a day tour that I was interested in within the hour . They know well how the schedules run. Only a small place like this could have that special personal attention for me. Later in the week that I stayed there, I met another Canadian who had returned for his second visit to Costa Rica. I also met the artist, Charlsie, who did most of the beautiful murals which had left such good memories for me. Being a person who appreciates art, imagination and writing, I felt that the place was just where I wanted to be. It was peaceful as not all the rooms were taken. I like waking up to the sounds of tropical birds. I’ll never get to hear those again until I get back there like my fellow Canadian who was there for the second time.

Not bad, but needs some work
Staff was friendly and helpful. However, the bed in the room was very old and creaky; the merc. vapor street lights outside the window lit up the room like daylight at night and the promoted hot-tub doesn’t work. Overall, not a bad place but they need to upgrade some things for greater customer comfort. I also suggested better door locks and smoke alarms in rooms....
Traveller's tip
This hotel is in downtown S.J., at least 25-30 mins from the airport. If you’ve got an early international flight out, I’d suggest a hotel closer to the airport to avoid nervousness over the taxi arrival in the AM and possible traffic problems, which could complicate your departure.
