We stayed here on our way back to the US. We had a flight at 0615 so we stayed the night before. The beds were very comfortable. The pillows were great. It was very clean and quiet. There is a gym and pool but we didn’t use them. We ate at the casino next door because the pollo place said the wait was 45 min. The wait at the casino was even more so eat at the pollo place! Since our flight was early they gave us snacks to take with us to the airport. The front desk was very nice. We will definitely stay here again.

I recently stayed at the Holiday Inn Express near the San Jose airport in Costa Rica and had a great experience. The location is incredibly convenient, especially for anyone needing quick access to the airport. The facility itself was fairly updated, and my room had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was cozy, and the space felt clean and well-maintained. The staff were friendly and accommodating, which made the experience even better. One of the highlights was the excellent fresh breakfast, which featured wonderful fruit and a variety of options to start the day right. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for its convenience, comfort, and quality service. I’ll definitely stay here again when traveling through San Jose!

The bed had springs sticking out of it and that was very uncomfortable making for a horrible sleep. The room next to the presidents suite room #6400 was flooded out and had immense mold in it. Our room 4400 had water damage in it and smelt like mold plus the window in the room also shows a hallway- a public hallway. We also went out for dinner at their restaurant. Service took over an hour to get our food (we were the only table in the restaurant) drinks were made with fake syrup and the food was poor. I wouldn’t recommend this place. And I would like a refund.
