Exceptional

Easily the most convenient hotel if you have an overnight bus to pick up. Very close to both the Ticabus terminal and the Pulmitan one with buses that go to Guacanaste. Staff are very accommodating and the room is excellent value.

Fabulous

The people are very nice and helpful. The room is simple and comfortable.

The hotel is not in the best neighborhood, but the place is very secure in itself, and there are restaurants very close, so there is no need to walk far at night to eat. I went to a place right across the street, and all was good :)

El Descanso is a nice and affordable place to stay while visiting San José.

The hotel was very nice considering how little I paid. I did not expect it to come with a TV or for the room to be as clean as it was. I also slept very well and there was plenty of storage space. El Descanso is a wonderful hotel for solo travelers or couples in San José.

Something kept shaking the room, like a small earthquake. There was also a lot of noise from the room next to me and it sounded like there was construction going on. However, it was still pretty good.

Worked for what I needed

It was a good place to stay while going to the bus station bc it’s close.

It’s in a very sweet part of town. Room is tiny.

Basic But Functional

Very secure with staff having to buzz you through a gate 24/7. Great value for a capital city. Downstairs cafe is ideal. Strong wifi.
