"We stayed here for a night prior to flying back home. It was just what we needed - pool, restaurant, breakfast. It’s a smaller hotel, and really cute - it doesn’t have that generic hotel feel to it. My only complaint is that the beds were as hard as a board, but we were all exhausted so it didn’t matter. It could’ve been an issue if staying multiple nights though. They also offer a free shuttle to the airport and since we were leaving before breakfast, they packed us a little snack to take to...

Hilton Garden Inn San Jose Airport City Mall

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was clean, spacious rooms, cute kids area, excellent front staff, including van driver and weight staff. I would definitely stay here again when in the area. The only thing is with the showers when they installed the tile they didn’t angle it enough to go toward the dream, which seems to be common in Costa Rica."
