Carmen

"My preferred place to stay in San Jose (have probably stayed here at least 20 times, and I have stayed at many places in town so I have a fair idea of what's "normal" here even for the high-end hotels). Large and clean rooms, great location and staff. Only downside is there is no restaurant/bar in the hotel, rather in the separate casino which is a bit sleazy for my tastes. But there are decent restaurants within a short walk."

"The amenities were good, however the check in and out staff not so much, very hostile and unfriendly. The checkout time very early. I don’t see me staying there again."

"Excelente hotel en una ubicación muy conveniente."

Fairfield by Marriott San Jose Airport Alajuela

10/10 Excellent

"Extremely clean rooms, excellent service from all staff, from the front desk to restaurant to housekeeping. The front desk staff especially Leynor, offered so much assistance from my early check in to any question or guidance I needed. The restaurant staff were very friendly, especially Fernando. I especially loved the mini freebies like dessert or appetizer. Very cozy ambience, less crowd and traffic in lobby, bar and restaurant areas compared to larger hotels. The warmth of the hotel staff combined with the light aura of the cozy corners suited me perfectly. Will definitely return!"
