Hotel El Descanso
3.7/510 Reviews
Good and cheap for one night if you going from/to airport. Bus stop nearby. 2 cafes right downstairs of hotel so it’s convenient to have breakfast before you check out. Hotel workers are friendly and helpful
Hotel 1492
3.9/531 Reviews
The appearance from the outside was deceptive compared to the inside. Rooms were small and basic with dated decor. Beds were very uncomfortable and the bathroom was quite dirty with bad, cold shower and toilet that leaked. I would not stay again. The only positives were the price, communal areas and its location within a less busy neighbourhood about 20 minutes walk away from the main bus station.
Casa Jardin del Mango
4.3/536 Reviews
Firstly if you’re considering staying in this hotel perhaps have a look at its reviews on booking dot com where is has a 9/10 rating from 391 reviews. For some reason it’s listing on TripAdvisor seems to be minimal. We spent a night there as a group of three while transiting through San Jose. PROS - ROOMs/COMMON AREAS - This is more a guesthouse than hotel. The common spaces are particularly large - huge kitchen, large living room with tv and couches, fish tank, resident hedgehog, small workout area, garden, etc. Would be a particularly nice place for someone staying in San Jose for an extended period as it feels like a home not a hotel. Our room also was nice. Comfortable beds. Clean. No air conditioning but San Jose is at such elevation that this doesn’t matter. - LOCATION - There was ampm convenience store only five minutes walk away. Not too far from bus station - short Uber ride. - WIFI - Worked well. - SERVICE - friendly. - SECURITY- suburb felt safe. Metal door at entrance. Room locked. - VALUE - only 43USD for the night which was very reasonable. Was hard to find budget-mid range options in San Jose. CONS - Bathroom situation is a little hectic. There are two showers but they are in the same room with some frosted glass so don’t really offer much privacy. As a result people lock the door to access both and so you can a bit of a line up in the morning.
