This was one of the coolest places we’ve ever rented. The house was spacious and simply beautiful. They’ve clearly put so much love into this home. Also, the owner was incredibly communicative and even suggested places to eat and fun activities nearby.

This unit is in the heart of a busy city, secure parking was fantastic - we had a pretty big van that fit just fine in the private garage. Laundry facilities came in handy and worked well. The condo is super cool and cute. It was a very comfy space.

This lodging is La Sabana is very wonderful. We particularly loved the sun room/covered porch on the second floor. The bedrooms were comfortable. The kitchen was relatively spacious. The lodging is close to a large park and not far from downtown San Jose. We appreciated that the lodging included a covered garage for 1 car. The host is very attentive and responsive.

Great little villa in the center of Sabana. Walking distance to all the things we wanted to see in downtown San Jose & very close to the park. Villa is equipped very nicely with all the comforts of home with a quaint little vide to it. Host was very easy to deal with, had a problem with a fan in one of the rooms & she brought in two floor fans in a couple hours. We loved our stay here.
