"My preferred place to stay in San Jose (have probably stayed here at least 20 times, and I have stayed at many places in town so I have a fair idea of what's "normal" here even for the high-end hotels). Large and clean rooms, great location and staff. Only downside is there is no restaurant/bar in the hotel, rather in the separate casino which is a bit sleazy for my tastes. But there are decent restaurants within a short walk."

10/10 Excellent
"The staff was amazing and courteous. The bartender Humberto was awesome. The staff remembered my birthday and did a great display with a piece of cake in my room. Area is convenient. The only down side was that the pool was closed due to renovations but that's ok. Would definitely recommend."
