I spent a night here at the end of my Costa Rica trip before heading back to California. The place is clean and well maintained and the staff are friendly and helpful. But the facilities are a bit dated, particularly, the AC units are very noisy at the night.

Okay hotel close to the airport

Very friendly and helpful staff, but the hotel itself is adequate at best. The whole hotel had a musty odour, the toilet was of a commercial style, and you had to stand on a chair to adjust the A/C,

A wonderful accidental discovery

A missed flight caused us to need to stay the night in San Jose. This hotel was fantastic. The room was nice, the bed was comfortable, the staff was friendly and helpful, and the complimentary breakfast was amazing - the best we've ever gotten at a hotel. Next time we will book it on purpose.

Not a good experience

The hotel is OLD and odd. The bed was uncomfortable with old bedding. The towles had holes and were all scratchy and worn out. The bathroom was NASTY!!!! mold in ceiling and walls, balck stain on grout in shower, chippped and old mirror, lots of misquitos. Stay somewhere else.

We chose this hotel because of its proximity to the airport as on arrival we got in late and on departure we left early. The shuttle to the airport is free, and they had a very decent takeaway breakfast ready for us when we departed for the airport at 6:00am. The “pack and play” was all set up for our infant granddaughter. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The restaurant is quite good. We enjoyed delicious tuna tartare and fish and shrimp ceviche. The burger was good too.

When Expedia messed up my reservation (confirmed to me they had booked the two rooms I wanted but actually booked only one! Won’t use Expedia again!), the lovely staff at Adventure Inn came through and rescued the situation. They upgraded us to a larger room and put us on their wait list for a second room - and when we got there (tired after a long plane ride and with a very tired 8-month old), there was a second room for us. At their suggestion, we had preordered some dinner (as their restaurant closes at 9:30), and we enjoyed it in one of their pleasant communal seating areas. Being so close to the airport, this was the perfect place for us to spend our first night in Costa Rica, before setting out the next day on the long drive to Manuel Antonia.
