Great B&B just nextdoor to the airport

Small family owned B&B within minutes from the airport. Great value, friendly staff, clean basic rooms with a good shower. Perfect when you're exhausted after a long flight from europe.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

Die Unterkunft ist günstig, sicher und nahe bei den Autovermietern ( zu Fuss erreichbar) gelegen. Die Zimmer sind ringhörig, wenn im Restaurant vor den Zimmern jemand ein Gespräch führt bekommt man das praktisch 1/1 mit und es fliegen doch einige Flugzeuge gut hörbar über die Unterkunft
