What guests think
Hotel Casa 69 is a small, colorful boutique stay where travelers consistently praise the exceptionally friendly staff, generous cooked to order breakfasts, and a walkable location near Barrio Escalante and central sights, offering good value and a welcoming, homey vibe.
Rooms are generally spacious and comfortable with unique decor, though some rooms lack air conditioning and a few feel simple. A recurring drawback is city and train noise, and multiple reviews note the hotel accepts cash only. Facilities are modest but pleasant, with rooftop and garden areas; parking is available yet tight or best reserved. Expect a friendly, characterful base for exploring San Jose.

Friendly staff. Good recommendations for local areas. Really cute and unique property. Would stay again for sure. Excellent breakfast. Parking was tight, but owner was helpful in getting the car in. Security for the room was a potential issue as you could put your arm through the gate to unlock it at anytime; risk is mitigated by no one being allowed into the property that isn't a guest. Still, I'd put valuables in the safe. Overall was a great stay. Highly recommended and would be glad to go back. Price was great as well.

This is a no frills property where rooms are clean, large enough but rudimentary. The common areas are nice but small and the people in charge are the real draw. Very nice and helpful. You feel like you are in someone's large home. No pool or restaurant, and only takes cash but certainly I would go back on my way to or from the area.

My flight was late getting in and I arrived after 10pm. The host was very nice and accomodating and got me into my room quickly. Parking was tricky but he very patiently guided me into a safe spot. There is road noise because its a city but the hotel was very quiet overall. Breakfast was great! All staff were so nice.

Casa 69 is a boutique hotel with the warm, homey feel of an Airbnb. The owner, is on site. The email communications were very good. Please note that the hotel payment must be made at the hotel in cash. When you arrive, you are warmly greeted and shown to your room. The breakfast eating area is alive with colour and artwork as well as plants and a tree growing up beyond the roof. It is a perfect setting for a relaxing breakfast. Assistance for tourists is available all day. The staff, are particularly helpful in providing suggestions. If you have difficulty climbing stairs, just ask for a room on the main floor. Breakfast consists of blended juices, warm, crusty rolls, your choice of eggs, rice and beans and amazing red papaya and sweet pineapple. The breakfast menu doesn't vary from day today and is always delicious. There is a good-sized relaxing space with couches and a variety of tour books for this country. We had an extended day of over a week and enjoyed the comfortable accommodations and service. Highly recommended! You can walk into the city and see a small park, the national library and the contemporary art museum (MADC), all of which are great tourist sites. The library had two art exhibits. Two major train stations are nearby. There is a restaurant area with many restaurants within a 10 min. Walk. Also try Sopitas for a lunch or light dinner. Please like this review.

Really nice atmosphere and traditional house. Everything was clean, we had enough space and especially liked the great breakfast and rooftop terrace 😊 even tho we didn’t feel safe in San Jose itself, the accommodation provided us with great safety measures at the entrance. The service staff was super kind and the location is perfect for get a glimpse of the city. Nearby neighborhood Bario Escalante was our favorite. You can walk there and get to cool restaurants and bars! Thanks to the hosts again and especially the fair price having breakfast included!

Wenn ich je wieder nach San Jose reise, werde ich dieses Hotel auf jeden Fall wieder buchen!! Lage - ca. 15min Fussweg von Zentrum entfernt! Service - sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit! Frühstück - Kaffee/Tee und frische Früchte kann jeder sich selber nehmen, so viel er möchte! Es werden frisch aufgebackene Brötchen mit Butter und Marmelade und dazu ein typisches Frühstück serviert! Ausstattung - die Zimmer sind gepflegt, dauber und verfügen über genügend Platz und haben sogar eine Klimaanlage. Auf dem Dach des Hauptgebäudes befindet sich eine Dachterrasse mit einer gigantischen Aussicht! Würde dieses Hotel jedem empfehlen, da es klein und überschaubar ist, aber trotzdem hat das Hotel alles, was es zum wohlfühlen braucht!

The hotel is quite centrally located. However, this makes it extremely noisy. The sound of traffic is deafening at night even with windows closed. If you are a light sleeper, think again. The property looks lovely when you come in, the area where you have breakfast is very nice too and the staff are so so kind. Food was delicious too. Cons: The worst part is that they only tell you they accept cash only payment on arrival. Not ideal and really inconvenient. Had to withdraw cash from an ATM nearby with a commission The rooms need some work. There were some crusty stains in inside of the bed cover and I could not bring myself to use them which made for an uncomfortable night

Great bed! Very clean room and bathroom. We had the king overlooking the roof patio and it was perfect for us. Very nice staff / family (seemed like a family run place). I left myself no time before the airport and was sorry to miss the breakfast, as they make it to order. No complaints, would stay again.

It was a fun stay. The staff are lovely. The room itself was very hot, with only a ceiling fan to cool it - and oddly, the sliding door didn’t lock, only the security gate outside the door, which felt a bit odd. Breakfast was lovely and service was good. As long as you don’t mind a bit ‘rustic’ then it is a good place to stay, easy walking distance to the city and Barrio Escalante.

The property is very safe behind a nondescript door accessible only by key. All the staff are so welcoming, friendly, and helpful. The rooms have no air conditioning and it is located in a noisy area, but the city cools down enough in the evening and coupled with the fan in the room, I didn’t think AC was necessary. I was also able to sleep fine with the street din. The property is gorgeous.

Extremely friendly staffs, really well talking care of guests. I had mismanaged my reservation and overstayed without knowing. Staff had been understanding and handled my mistake so elegantly and professionally. It was embarrassing for me, while the hotel manager had handled the situation extremely well which made me feel welcomed and appreciated. Personally i have never been more appreciated and welcomed. Would love to stay in touch and visit again.

It was embarrassing for me, while the hotel manager had handled the situation extremely well which made me feel welcomed and appreciated. Personally i have never been more appreciated and welcomed. Would love to stay in touch and visit again.

Location
Central and walkable for downtown sights and Barrio Escalante, with restaurants, museums, and transport close by. Some guests found the surroundings noisy and a few felt less comfortable at night.

Stayed one night but if we were in San Jose longer, would have loved to stay here and use it as our hub. Clean, friendly, safe. Short walk to downtown.

Winston and his team were amazing - they were friendly and helpful. The property was great - reasonably priced, nice breakfast, clean, colorful and located very close to Barrio Escalante - great coffee and dining options. The train ran by during the day and early evening but didn’t bother us. We stayed for 3 nights and would definitely return!

Little gem on the edge of downtown. Tucked behind a walked entrance within walking distance from museums, shopping, restaurants and bars (Barrio Escalente).

It was a fun stay. The staff are lovely. The room itself was very hot, with only a ceiling fan to cool it - and oddly, the sliding door didn’t lock, only the security gate outside the door, which felt a bit odd. Breakfast was lovely and service was good. As long as you don’t mind a bit ‘rustic’ then it is a good place to stay, easy walking distance to the city and Barrio Escalante.

Casa 69 is a boutique hotel with the warm, homey feel of an Airbnb. The owner, is on site. The email communications were very good. Please note that the hotel payment must be made at the hotel in cash. When you arrive, you are warmly greeted and shown to your room. The breakfast eating area is alive with colour and artwork as well as plants and a tree growing up beyond the roof. It is a perfect setting for a relaxing breakfast. Assistance for tourists is available all day. The staff, are particularly helpful in providing suggestions. If you have difficulty climbing stairs, just ask for a room on the main floor. Breakfast consists of blended juices, warm, crusty rolls, your choice of eggs, rice and beans and amazing red papaya and sweet pineapple. The breakfast menu doesn't vary from day today and is always delicious. There is a good-sized relaxing space with couches and a variety of tour books for this country. We had an extended day of over a week and enjoyed the comfortable accommodations and service. Highly recommended! You can walk into the city and see a small park, the national library and the contemporary art museum (MADC), all of which are great tourist sites. The library had two art exhibits. Two major train stations are nearby. There is a restaurant area with many restaurants within a 10 min. Walk. Also try Sopitas for a lunch or light dinner. Please like this review.

The hotel is quite centrally located. However, this makes it extremely noisy. The sound of traffic is deafening at night even with windows closed. If you are a light sleeper, think again. The property looks lovely when you come in, the area where you have breakfast is very nice too and the staff are so so kind. Food was delicious too. Cons: The worst part is that they only tell you they accept cash only payment on arrival. Not ideal and really inconvenient. Had to withdraw cash from an ATM nearby with a commission The rooms need some work. There were some crusty stains in inside of the bed cover and I could not bring myself to use them which made for an uncomfortable night
