Beautiful little hotel, very nice rooms, friendly, helpful staff. Breakfast is good, not great, but there are a ton of places to eat around it, but definitely good for a morning pick-me-up. Pretty quiet for being right off a major throughfare, just jet traffic noise from SJO, but that's common. I would defintiely stay again next time I am in the area.
