Hotel Novo

The Hotel Novo was as described, great staff, hotel could do with some tlc but I was only one night here arriving late from the airport and heading to the Pacific next day. Room was clean, bed was comfy, WiFi worked fine and breakfast was much appreciated. Couldn't adjust the air con but that could have been user error from my side. Can't really complain from a price/quality point of view. Also there was no noise but I was not on the street side. Really handy if you are using the bus station.

It was ok for the price. Breakfast was ok. It's in a dodgy area, so don't go outside after dark on your own and keep phones, jewellery and valuables out of sight

It sufficed. Some of the fixtures and fittings (electrical sockets) did not work, could be cleaner, a bit run down and in a run down neighbourhood. Not too bad a place, also not too good

The Hotel is located in the worst part of San Jose, there were people sleeping on the sidewalks which was piled with garbage, you were warned not to go out the Hotel during the night, I requested a refund of part of the fees, but they refused, I spent three nights and had to move to a safer area in San Juan, San Jose.

Great staff. The only con was the low water pressure in the shower. Bear in mind that there's constant music from shops around during the whole day, if your room faces the street (it didn't matter to me in general, just when I had online meetings 😂)
