We had a lovely stay—thank you so much to Melissa and to Claudia from the restaurant next door for all your help! The apartment was clean, secure, quiet, and very close to the airport, which was super convenient. We ended up needing to stay an extra night, and Claudia kindly made sure everything was sorted for us. Check-in and check-out were smooth and self-service, which made things really easy. We left the apartment just as we found it. Thank you again for a great stay in San José!

We would go here again! We had a super relaxing time! The Finca is rustic, but so peaceful and we thoroughly enjoyed hanging out on the front porch enjoying the magnificent views and local breakfasts in the morning

It was an excellent choice for my last night before leaving Costa Rica via SJO. The hotel is so nice, peaceful and green, I enjoyed the garden and the pool so much and didn‘t even feel like going anywhere else on that day. The room was spacious and nicely decorated, with indoor and outdoor shower and large terrace. Very friendly staff! I would definitely stay there again and highly recommend this hotel.

Excellent location, just about 15 minutes from the airport. The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful, offering great advice on everything we asked. Our room was very spacious, and the beds were super comfortable. We especially loved the terrace and the delicious breakfast served directly to our room, which we enjoyed with a lovely view of the jungle. Overall, everything was perfect, room was very clean and we would definitely recommend this place!

For us this is the ideal combination to get adjusted to the time difference, have the restaurant Raw&Co Irgun 100m walk and a shopping mall Multi plaza within a 25 min walk.
