I stayed here for 4 days. Its very close to San Jose. It is close to a plaza with many food options and a country club. The staff was respectful and helpful. The pool didn't work for a couple of days of my stay, but the jacuzzi worked fine. Overall I would stay here again!

One of the main reasons we stay at this hotel is for the pool and it was closed down for a deep cleaning, which wasn’t mentioned at check in. I felt like they should be providing discounts particularly for families with kids. The beds were very hard and small.

Property is great. It has everything. Maybe the spa (massage) could be more friendly. We went for a relaxing massage , left a bit sore and unrelaxed. They could be a bit more responding to the customer needs. There we give 2.5 stars. Other than that , property was great!
