What a value for the little money spent! There is cable and satellite TV, although most programs are in Spanish. It has a hot shower which is an exception rather than the rule in a normal home here. Although it is cooler in the mountains, it was cozy sleeping in our multi-blanketed beds. We enjoyed dinner at this property and ate the local trout, as it is the freshest fish available in these pristine mountain locations. Very yummy! The cold, clear mountain water is delicious.... no chemicals here! We filled all our water bottles to take with us. We did not eat breakfast at the restaurant as we had a full kitchen. However, we did make use of the provided tea and coffee, which was locally produced and was so delicious that we purchased several bags to take home with us.

    Great location. Everything within easy walking distance. Great secure off street parking. Lovely old building with large rooms. Comfy bed. Loved the hot tub. Great breakfast - both food and ambience. Multiple areas for lounging etc. Gym was an added bonus. Although you are aware of outside sounds the whole place gives an air of escape from the bustle outside.

    We could not have been happier with the apartment , communication and location. Hannia was so accommodating and allowed us to check in very early which made our day. The apartment was sparkling clean and had a very cozy and homey feel to it. We loved having the terrace door open and getting a nice breeze all day long. The beds were clean and comfortable. The area is fantastic and so are the amenities of the Cosmopolitan Tower. Really a great value place

    I stayed here for one night on a layover in San Jose and it was absolutely delightful. The host is kind and friendly and helpful. The home is cozy and comfortable. The breakfast was hearty and delicious. The location is walking distance to a small shopping mall with ATM and grocery store. Also, a short ride to the airport. I will definitely stay here on my next visit to San Jose. :)

    We stayed in Dunn Inn for just one night following a late arrival into San Jose and before travelling to La Fortuna at lunchtime the next day. It was just what we needed. It’s a clean and charming hotel with friendly and helpful staff, who assisted us in booking a private transfer to La Fortuna at late notice. In terms of location it’s around a 10 minute walk to the centre of San Jose; and we found navigating easy due to the grid system. To note, the walk does involve a fairly steep hill so may not be doable for all travellers.

    Great Finca with a beautiful garden. Delicious breakfast with pancakes, fresh fruit, granola, yoghurt and toast. The garden bungalow was clean and cozy. Safe Barrio with lots of restaurants and bars close by. You can easily walk into the city center. I would definitely recommend staying here.
