Staff was very friendly, the facility was very nice, and very clean. They could use some sort of air freshener for the rooms but other than that no issues. Not that there was unpleasant smell but just a bit stale. Nonetheless, I would definitely stay here again.

Great location to all central sites. Spacious rooms! A/C units very loud though. Staff were friendly. Easy to park your car also.
Great breakfast, spacious rooms, parking was very tight in the underground area. Location is awesome.

Staff was very nice. The breakfast was nice, and the serving staff was also very nice.
The property can use some care though. The carpet in common areas is musty and dirty. The curtains are broken and irreparable, toilet door was completely removed.
Breakfast was a fantastic introduction to Costa Rican food and the guy who served us was very friendly and helpful
Location is in the centre of town within walking distance of /near the sights
Our room was a big claen room with plenty of room with a safe coffee filter ironing board and iron all of which we did not expect
There is a communal area on the landings for people to use too
Staff were friendly and helpful
Super high ceilings. Amazing common lounge areas on each floor. Very friendly and helpful staff. Nice breakfast. The kitchenette in the suite is lacking amenities (just a microwave, stovetop, and mini fridge). No dishware, glasses, or utensils. Tight and chaotic parking lot.
Very enjoyable stay! Highly recommend if you're in this part of town.
Stay was great, hotel impeccable. Staff super friendly. The area is not the nicest, but we knew that to begin with.

Perfect location if you want to see actual wildlife with out having to search for it extensively. Location provides a peaceful spot as it’s not on the main road. Many other tourists we met said they could sleep well because traffic a people were so loud along the strip/main road. We saw monkeys on a mango tree right outside our room and many exotic birds too. There’s also a beautiful peacock that greets you every time you come back to the property. Very safe spot too. This is the place to stay in cahuita/pueto vargas for sure. The owner is also very educated with the area and gave us many suggestions for adventures and sight seeing that never disappointed.
Amazing front desk and breakfast Staff. So professional and welcoming. Everything was spotless! The entire Hotel was extremely clean - Spotless!! Breakfast was fabulous and cooked to order. Would absolutely recommend this hotel. Loved the simple tranquility. It is truly the calm oasis in the heart of the city they promise. Close to market, bus station, and restaurants.
Everything was fantastic about staying at Urban Green, from the delicious free breakfasts to the helpful staff. In the center of town, within walking distance to the museums, banks, restaurants and shops. I booked for five days and stayed fifteen, and will stay there next time I go to San Jose.

Nice spacious room for the price with good staff service and great food as well.
Modern, clean and spacious room. Very well located, within 1 block of the center of town.
We stayed for one night, but did not have hot water. They attempted to restart the water heater, but apparently didn’t work. An inconvenience that I hope was temporary and the next guests did not have that problem.
Hotel was good. Large rooms, clean and great bathroom. Staff were very good and helpful too, advising us where to go visit and eat. I was very happy with the hotel and location is perfect.
