Pros: Our room was comfortable with double doors opening on to a little planted area with a small fountain. All very nice. The bed was comfortable and it was quiet, so we slept well. Everywhere was very clean with wood and tiled floors. Bathroom was small with a shower over the bath and no bidet. There is a large and attractive restaurant with both internal and courtyard tables.

Pros: Our room was comfortable with double doors opening on to a little planted area with a small fountain. All very nice. The bed was comfortable and it was quiet, so we slept well. Everywhere was very clean with wood and tiled floors. Bathroom was small with a shower over the bath and no bidet. There is a large and attractive restaurant with both internal and courtyard tables.
Cons: This is a city centre hotel so outside space is bound to be limited, but other than a small enclosed “terrace” there is no outside space. There is a small seating area in the restaurant but it is dark and not welcoming. Carpets in the corridors need replacing. My major criticism would however be the price of food and wine in the restaurant. The food is fine without being great, but is twice as expensive as it should be. Service was again fine rather than good. When I’ve spent $65 on a bottle of Argentinian wine (!), I don’t think I should have to pour it myself. Curiously we got the impression that most of the staff left at 21.00. Service is probably better if you eat earlier. In truth, San Jose is a tatty unattractive city (although the three principal museums are excellent) and I would be in no hurry to return. If I did I would stay here again, but I would not look when I signed the restaurant bill!

Pros: We had dinner in the restaurant and it was excellent. All of us liked it.
Cons: When we checked in the person who met us at the counter seemed uneasy with our request to stow our suitcases and arrange someone to pick us up at the rental car drop off. (Our suite was not ready, but it was early.) He handed us off to a younger man (Daniel, I believe) who was extremely helpful and pleasant. We were not offered the fresh juice cocktail that was offered to other patrons as they checked in and we wondered why the first agent didn't do that.

Pros: Ok so the staff is so nice but room 414 had little to no water pressure and trickle of hot water...... I asked the front to change rooms but because they were full no possible.... So sucked it up and took Luke warm shower for two days.... Manager said he would comp a dinner at hotel eatery .... Didn't happen and no one seemed to know how it would work.

Cons: The reception staff were horrendous. Unwelcoming, uninformative, uninterested. Not forth coming with any information, like pulling teeth to get any details about the hostel; when the restaurant would be open or their procedures with check in and check out. The kitchen is poorly equipped given the size of the hostel and very little attention is given to keeping it in order.

Pros: Proprietor Thomas Douglas is a warm, welcoming presence at breakfast. Circulating among tables of guests, he's chock full of stories and suggestions. When he heard about my difficulty in obtaining a rental car, he made an immediate call and booked one for the following day. Our room was comfortable and spacious--the high ceilings speak to the hotel's former life as a magnificent private residence. The hotel's ideally situated for walking to the Central Market, the National Theater, and the Pre-Columbian Gold Museum.

Only window opens to the public patio. No safe. The description has professional photos that make this hotel look fabulous. It’s not. Worse, they required prepayment for 10 day stay, I stayed 1 day. No refund. Fraud. Deception. Advance booking for excellent Holiday Inn is just $12 more. Awful experience.

Cons: We had a ground floor room in the apartment block and there was a LOT of noise from the street from early morning. Walls also super thin we could hear next door room chatting away late at night, their phone ring at dawn, coffee machine switch on etc. We are light sleepers so didn’t get a good night sleep at all sadly. Would definitely stay again but in superior plus room over in main hotel area round back of hotel which looked to be quiet - room 22 I think. Would be good to have bath towel as floor slippery on getting out of shower.

The menu at the restaurant and the bar menu also offered a lot of choice with a range of prices, and most of our meals were very tasty. Staff were also polite and friendly and doing a great job in difficult circumstances.

Pros: Had an unexpectedly long stay at The Radisson when Costa Rica tour cut short due to Coronavirus, including several days alone once the rest of my tour group left on earlier flights. Staff exceptionally friendly and helpful throughout, from reception & concierge, to housekeeping and all the restaurant staff - despite the fact that their colleagues were being laid off and the hotel was winding down as tourists leave Costa Rica. Entire hotel spotlessly clean. Lovely pool areas.

Staff were also polite and friendly and doing a great job in difficult circumstances.
Cons: The room was very dimly lit, so could benefit from more lighting options. The level of cleaning that our room received on a daily basis also seemed to be quite sporadic - some days we received fresh bottled water and refills on tea/coffee, and some days we didn’t. We were also given a different number of towels sometimes. Also, the tea/coffee machine on the fourth floor stopped working several times during our stay - however, this was quickly fixed when reported to reception.

Entire hotel spotlessly clean. Lovely pool areas.
Cons: Although close to centre of town (15-20 mins walk), not the prettiest of surroundings - especially compared with the breathtaking beauty of the rest of the country. However, I always felt safe walking into town, but wouldn't chance it at night as pavements a bit treacherous (not the hotel's fault)!

Pros: I liked he location.

6,0 Good
Pros: Good location. Big rooms, friendly reception staff. Secure off road parking.
Cons: No hot water in our room. When we complained, they moved us and upgraded us to a much better room. They had known when they put us in that room that there was no hot water, but did not tell us, and still put us in the room. I found I had been charged twice as they used the original booking card as well as the card I gave on arrival. To be fair they realised before I did, but I had to query it to be told this. The hotel claims to be 4 stars, but it’s nowhere near that.

Pros: The location and breakfast!

Pros: The staff
Cons: When we got to the room we didn't have power for the lights or the ac so I called downstairs (the phone worked) and they informed me you have to insert your keycard in a slot by the door to get power. Weird but ok, I'll play along. After a couple hours of trying to get the ac to work and trying to sleep without it, I ended up calling the desk and having them take a look. They couldn't figure it out and moved us to a room right next door, which was an upgrade. The staff was great and helpful with the situation but the new ac didn't work much better. All in all, not a bad hotel. Great location, there was free breakfast we didn't get to enjoy, they opened my bottle of wine, and took great care of my complaint. However, there was a lot of construction which was a little weird to deal with and the ac is a huge thing for me. From the north and my house is constantly freezing.

Cons: The ride I scheduled from the airport never showed. I called and they told me to just catch one from there. They charged my credit card three times. They miss typed the amount two times and charged both those times before finally charging the correct amount and they did NOT tell me! My master bathroom shower floor was not cleaned. The staff were terrible with instructions (but the language barrier)

2,0 Mediocre
Pros: The staff was professional and breakfast was ok
Cons: This hotel is dirty and very outdated. Rooms need an upgrade. The bathroom ceiling fan was half hanging down. The sheets and bath towels had dried blood and stains all over. The walls are super thin. The couple next to me had sex for 2 hours and the headboard was hitting the wall. Woke me up from my sleep because they were super loud! You could even hear the woman’s moaning in the hotel hallway! They advertise a shuttle but the hotel doesn’t have one! They also do not have an iron or ironing board in the room. You have to use their laundry service to get your clothes pressed and ironed....but their amenities mention a guest laundry room! I will not stay here again when I come back to Costa Rica.

Cons: It gets super noisy, at the day time but also at night! There is some night club almost next door that attracts all kind of dodgy personas ... If you are looking for a good sleep, stay away from this place as much as you can. Some say you can ask for a room on the inside, but ... it does not have windows (at least the one I was offered). You don't want to stay at a basement-like room, so it's a no-no. The whole building/rooms is old and worn out, but well .. what can you do about it?

Pros: Enjoyed the near by park and museums, also the local casino was next door and had a black jack table. The hotel had three bar areas, with lots of people to enjoy. I'd book my next visit to this hotel again.
Cons:
7,0 Good
Pros: Old stile busy hotel centrally located. Bars, Resto etc 24hrs available. Helpfull tourdesk staff. Room location shall be requested at the upper floors 5,6,) since noise of casino and bar lasts 24 hrs. In upper floors, no disturbance.
Cons: Hotel admin got confused about my breakfast, which was included in the rate. The breakfast is a tasty set dish local stile (Gallo pinto). Anyhow there is a small buffet in the dining room, offering fruits, croissants tomatoe juice. One staff told me, it gas to be paid separately. Thats rediculous as it is nothing special ! In the evening , caused by stupid tourists, plenty of pimps, drugsellers, taxi touts around. Simply to be ignored but unconvenient feeling.
8,0 Excellent
Pros: There was quite a buzz about the place and so that was particularly good when travelling alone. Very easy to meet people.
Cons: There were a few unsavoury characters outside and near the entrance doors but they didn't bother me too much.
1,0 Poor
Pros: Only thing good is it's location. DON'T BOOK! DON'T BOOK! DON'T BOOK!.
Cons: This hotel is only concerned with taking your money. The refrigerator is locked and there is a $100 deposit to use it. The rooms are old and smelly. Beds are old and lumpy. Not worth $50/night.

Pros: Hostel is nice and if you are in the back rooms it is quiet most of the time. no idea what type of brakes does they serve and that's my specialty so can recommend. Really in the middle of everything you're close to most attractions in downtown San Jose so it is convenient the location.

Pros: No me gustó el alojamiento en absoluto y faltaba mucho agua, no tienes agua para bañarte, viejo muy sucio y lleno de cucarachas, mi cama tenía un agujero que me dejó con dolor todo el viaje. el servicio es muy malo al amanecer Estuve dos días afuera sin que nadie abriera y todavía hacen una mueca porque llegas al amanecer. toman su dinero sin su consentimiento. tan pronto como reserve la habitación. El desayuno no está mal todos los días. ¡es eso mismo! muchas veces vas allí y no solo tienes días que no lo haces y no importa si pagaste el alojamiento con desayuno. Dejé una toalla en el baño en lugar de preguntar si era mía, la tomaron, la lavaron y la dejaron en su casa para uso personal que está al lado del hotel. El hotel se está desmoronando. no hay salida cerca como anuncia la cama y no hay ventilador ya que también I didn’t like the accommodation at all and badly lacking water, you don’t have water to bathe, very dirty old man full of cockroaches, my bed had a hole that left me in pain the entire trip. the service is very bad at dawn I stayed two days outside without anyone opening and they still make a face because you arrive at dawn. they take your money without your consent. as soon as you book the room. breakfast is not bad every day. that's right! many times you go there and you don’t just have days that don’t do and it doesn’t matter if you paid for accommodation with breakfast. I left a towel in the bathroom instead of asking if it was mine, they took it and washed it and were leaving it at their home for personal use that is next to the hotel. the hotel is falling apart. there is no outlet nearby as it announces the announcement of the bed and there is no fan as it also informs

Cons: Breakfast not offered or advised that even though it's a bed and breakfast they don't give breakfast with your stay automatically. Didn't ask for the keys when I was leaving, I forgot and when calling to ask them to come where I was or meet in a location inbetween the hostal and where I was, nobody answered the phone and had to walk all the way down there again just to leave the keys. The day that I woke up early to get the races that was not offered I got out and I forgot something, I stay almost 20 minutes outside the hostel, trying to get in again but nobody was at the front desk.

Pros: Nice place, comfortable room, friendly staff, good location.
Cons: Little bit noisy place, we could hear every step from the hallway.
4,0 Okay
Pros: Hotel personnel helpful when asking for another room.
Cons: Our first room was with broken window, so we asked to change it which was fortunately possible. The kitchen "opening hours" were very limited so the question is when the kitchen is actually available. Overall a general maintanance of the entire place would be recommended.

Pros: First things first. Property is in a decent location, and if you stay in the triple room as we did, it’s pretty spacious. That’s all the positive things I can say.
Cons: I’m not picky at all and hardly give bad reviews, but in this case it deserves it. 1. The staff: the owner of this place is to the least, annoying, rude and the least helpful person you can find. Disgusting comments have been made during my stay and also to my girlfriend, treating us like we were stupid and creating an unnecessarily toxic environment 2. Management: so bathrooms themselves are dirty. No hot water. During our stay there was a planned water cut. No one from the staff noticed us about this and we were without water for a whole day. The easiest thing to do? Just place a sign in the bathroom door stating the water cut and the time scheduled. Also to mention, the guy laughed at us when telling us so. All in all, do not recommend and in fact, would suggest to avoid. Oh, there’s a 10% fee if you want to pay by card. Only because the owner wanted some cash I guess, due to a problem he created for other guests. Btw horrible breakfast
