Away from the hubbub of the inner city but still easy access.
We liked the convenience of a nearby well stocked supermarket and proximity to major street with bus service. Bring your earplugs though as the sounds of the street/cars are quite loud at night.
All in all we had lots of room for us and the apartments’ kitchen was better outfitted than expected. Despite a snag in our checkin we would come back and stay here

Wonderful place to stay in every aspect -- recommend 200%!
Excellent communication with property owner from the very beginning. She went above and beyond, even offering airport transportation option. Apartment is literally next to a great grocery store, and is within easy walking distance of so many restaurants, several museums, the iconic Mercado Central, train station, very unique Starbucks, a mall, numerous parks, and more. So convenient. Very secure/safe property with remote-operated main entrance to building and solid lock on apartment door. Property is so well equipped -- super kitchen that lacked nothing for us. Many basic cooking consumables available (soaps, spices, cooking oil, coffee, filter, coffee maker, cleaning supplies). Very clean all around, spacious, and comfortable. Good closet space. Great wi-fi and TV channel options. We were thrilled to have a washing machine with plenty of detergent and fabric softener available. Laundry room has unique overhead clothes drying rack, vice clothes drying machine, but with a little planning, we easily had fresh, clean, and dry clothes just 24 hours after washing. Plenty of hot water for our group of six. Huge sliding glass door opens for such nice outside airflow. Very nice view to the mountains north of San Jose. Cannot say enough positive things about the property and its owner. The artwork is very unique and such a great touch. We feel so lucky to have found this gem, which got our 12-day trip off to a perfect first five days. We would immediately stay here again and will always look for that opportunity. We love, love, love this apartment.
