Room had cockroaches and mold in the shower. Hard to overlook those two issues. Almost booked a different hotel, but wife convinced me to stick it out. They had a cappuccino machine in the room which was not plugged in and no outlet that I could find, I had to move it to the bathroom to plug it in. Very odd to have amenities with no outlet. Most of the staff was not super friendly, but that could be a general distaste for US travelers right now. Pool looked nice but we did not use it.

My daughter and I absolutely loved KC Hotel San José! It is just like an oasis in the middle of the city. Nice atmosphere, with natural plants everywhere. People can enjoy a delicious food at the Baraka restaurant with a relaxing view to the swimming pool, which is also warm! The hotel has a Gym and offers spa services. The rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. Amazing, friendly and helpful staff! I would stay again in my next visit to Costa Rica and recommend it 100%!

considering I paid only $60, this hotel is an amazing value. It's actually a unique boutique style hotel with an open air pool surrounded by restaurant which is a cool setup. The hotel has nice lighting, public seating areas, nicely decorated with plants and art - way above normal for this price. The rooms were really nicely appointed with lamps, carpet, and modern furnishings with lots of great pillows and sheets, very nice towels/soaps etc. There are lots of restaurants and bars to walk to. It took over 1 hour to reach the airport at 7am due to bad traffic though - beware. Uber ($15-25) is far cheaper than the taxi option ($35) to the airport.

We didn’t get to the hotel until 2:00am and whoever was at the desk was so helpful. There isn’t an elevator so they helped us with bags while we carried our sleeping kids. The hotel was quiet and beautiful- the breakfast delicious- service was beyond- would absolutely recommend for nice retreat!
