Rooms are simple and comfortable, with hot showers and pleasant common areas; some guests noted occasional airplane noise. Breakfast is frequently described as delicious, though it costs extra. Several mention cash or PayPal only payments and parking that can be limited or tricky, while the area outside the gates feels basic or sketchy. Expect a friendly, no-frills stopover focused on convenience.

We booked 2 rooms at this b&b so our group could be close to the airport for an early morning flight. We were pleasantly surprised by the layout of the property. It was in a gated community. The building had a common area in the center and the rooms off to the sides. The common area was very relaxed and comfy. Next door was a little soda that sold delicious food so we didn't need to leave the gated community. Dora, the b&b manager, was very kind and explained all necessary info off the bat. The rooms were standard and comfortable. They do only take cash,which they are pretty clear about, so keep that in mind.

I felt well taken care of and was able to rest comfortably waiting for my flight. A ride to airport was provided and it was perfect for service to airport. The hotel is behind two gates and pickup is safe and secure. No need to wait on street with your belongings. I will be staying here again for sure. Love the great service and friendly welcoming atmosphere. Clean and nice accommodations more than met my standard and needs. However the best part was the staff. So glad a business has stepped up to fulfill this need and performs.

This is a reasonably priced boutique hotel close to the airport. They offer an airport shuttle for $5 (only leaving from the hotel) and breakfast is available for $11. The hotel works well for a quick overnight stay in San Jose before flying out or when flying back into the country and not wanting to make the long drive home at night. The hotel is behind a tall motorized gate and also within a small cul de sac that is also gated so it feels safe. We did not partake of the breakfast so we can't comment on that. Everything went smoothly and the owner was very friendly. The surrounding area beyond the cul de sac outside of the hotel compound is pretty basic. There aren't any lovely walks or interesting cafes or restaurants but there is a large mall within a 10 minute drive of the hotel and we enjoyed an excellent dinner at the Taj Mahal restaurant on both ends of our trip. Parking is available at the hotel and long term parking at a neighbour's property just down the cul de sac is also available for $5 a day.

Dora, the owner, was very friendly and helpful. The location was perfect- very close to the airport, car rental, and shops but in a quiet, gated community. We stayed for one night when we arrived in CR and one night before we left. We enjoyed 2 different rooms, both of which were clean, well-equipped, and comfortable. The dining area was charming & comfortable & breakfast was spectacular! Breakfast costs a little extra but is well worth it.

The place was decent. Staff were great and kind. I’d probably just spend extra to get a nicer hotel. The doors were paper thin and you could hear people talking outside and moving around. The beds were a bit uncomfortable and springy, but nothing too horrible. This place only accepts cash. Overall it’s a 6/10. You get what you pay for, and I think for the price, it was a decent stay.

The rooms are carefully planned with nice towels, bedding, drinking water. There are 2 restaurants in walking distance or Uber eats delivers to the gate. We heard one plane fly overhead in early evening, other than that quiet If you don't speak Spanish be sure to print out the directions Dota sends you for the taxi driver. Be prepared to pay USD or colones and they may not have change I would happily staythere again for flights from the airport

Short stay just to be close to the airport ahead of an early morning flight. Feels like a little refuge within an otherwise unremarkable area and the staff were great. For a 1-night stay near the airport was a great option

Dora was an amazing host! We were able to pay through PayPal for both our room and a breakfast the next morning. We greatly appreciated her hospitality!

We booked 2 rooms at this b&b so our group could be close to the airport for an early morning flight. We were pleasantly surprised by the layout of the property. It was in a gated community. The building had a common area in the center and the rooms off to the sides. The common area was very relaxed and comfy. Next door was a little soda that sold delicious food so we didn't need to leave the gated community. Dora, the b&b manager, was very kind and explained all necessary info off the bat. The rooms were standard and comfortable. They do only take cash,which they are pretty clear about, so keep that in mind.

We spent a night in Casa Maria upon our evening arrival to San Jose, and this place was perfect for us! It is just a short ride from the airport, the property is fenced, and it felt very safe. The place itself is charming and cozy, with a beautiful outdoor kitchen/dining area. Dora is a welcoming host, and the breakfast was delicious. We would definitely stay there again.

We had an amazing time at Casa Maria. It was the perfect place to unwind after a 4.5 hour drive. Dora greeted us and helped us easily get parked and checked in. She asked what time we would like breakfast and suggested places close by to get dinner or anything else we may need. The room was clean, the shower was spacious with HOT water and we enjoyed being able to access the coffee bar and mini kitchen at anytime. Breakfast was delicious - fresh fruit, eggs, gallo pinto, plantains(our favorite in CR), buttered toast and jelly, coffee and juice. Checkout was easy and we truly felt welcome and cared for by all. Thank you for a great stay! We will definitely be back. **Helpful tip to find the hotel** Once you cross the small bridge before the entrance, look for the first side street on the right - with the solid black gate and formal entry. (The main gate was already open when we arrived, so it was a bit confusing figuring out which one was the right gate to go in.) There is a directory/keypad located to the left of the main entrance gate on the wall. It's not a small keypad or single button, it's a directory with numbers of each business/hotel listed. The directions state that after you cross the bridge, to look for a black gate near a yellow pole on the right and then punch a number to alert the office you have arrived... unfortunately, there are 3 consecutive black gates immediately after crossing the bridge. Hope that helps :) !

This is a reasonably priced boutique hotel close to the airport. They offer an airport shuttle for $5 (only leaving from the hotel) and breakfast is available for $11. The hotel works well for a quick overnight stay in San Jose before flying out or when flying back into the country and not wanting to make the long drive home at night. The hotel is behind a tall motorized gate and also within a small cul de sac that is also gated so it feels safe. We did not partake of the breakfast so we can't comment on that. Everything went smoothly and the owner was very friendly. The surrounding area beyond the cul de sac outside of the hotel compound is pretty basic. There aren't any lovely walks or interesting cafes or restaurants but there is a large mall within a 10 minute drive of the hotel and we enjoyed an excellent dinner at the Taj Mahal restaurant on both ends of our trip. Parking is available at the hotel and long term parking at a neighbour's property just down the cul de sac is also available for $5 a day.

Dora, the owner, was very friendly and helpful. The location was perfect- very close to the airport, car rental, and shops but in a quiet, gated community. We stayed for one night when we arrived in CR and one night before we left. We enjoyed 2 different rooms, both of which were clean, well-equipped, and comfortable. The dining area was charming & comfortable & breakfast was spectacular! Breakfast costs a little extra but is well worth it.

Small and comfortable B&B, with a front gate. Felt safe as a solo traveler and breakfast was fantastic! Highly recommend staying here if coming from/going to the airport. Rooms were quiet (with some airplane noise above) and the staff was excellent.
