For what we needed, it was sufficient. Lots of holes in the walls, not all of the lights worked, but the price was very good. The location was not far from the airport, but it looked like it was in a rough side of town. The staff was fantastic.
Very nice and extremely safe place, highly underrated hotel, so much nicer and safer that expected, definitely going to using every time while in San José
Staff super friendly
Good location if you have a car to drive, not walkable to anywhere. Excellent accommodations and cleanliness, breakfast is good. Service is good

Great and relaxing place to unwind.
Excellent experience! Ive stayed all over Costa Rica and have found the service only just acceptable. However, Laura, at the front desk was very helpful and nice. The rooms were spacious and comfortable and the dtay includwd a decent breakfasy from staff with a smile on their faces!
The only minor downside was the location, being a ways away from anyrhing worth visiting.
I would stay here again without hesitation!
The staff was super friendly & accommodating. In a good location, 7 min walk to restaurants, grocery store & ATM. Breakfast was really good in the mornings & very much appreciated. This spot is a hidden gem.
Staff are awesome every little detail is thought of. It is close to the highway so you can head to anywhere. Secured parking but it is also in a very quiet area.
Property was just as listed spacious and clean excellent service the front desk women allowed early
Access and was truly professional she was an excellent service
The property is extremely sterile and appears almost prison like. The front desk staff was fantastic and extremely friendly. Don’t judge a book by its cover.
Pretty good place to stay for the money, some areas need a little Maintenace and to be upgraded.
For example i stay in a suite one of the TV’s was very obsolete a square box from the 90’s definitely wasn’t a flat screen TV, plus they should upgrade to smart TV’s as well.
Overall for the money does worth it to stay nice secure location.
The staff is very friendly definitely will stay again.
Plaza Real and Suites is not a corporate chain. It is unique because it is a large property but has the atmosphere of a B&B. It has large nicely furnished rooms which are verry comfortable. It is centrally located and close to an entrance of a main artery of the highway systems. You can quickly get to the airport or to the shopping or hospitals of Escazu and Santa Ana and downtown. I could see the national stadium from my window.
