Great amenities, Great people in the reception, awesome view on the 14th floor and the gym was perfect. Everything about this property was superb. Very friendly people working and willing to go the extra mile, I needed a waterboiler and Victoria in the reception made sure to give me one that they had although it's not included in the room.

I can not say enough good things about Casa 69 and Winston. We were supposed to stay there one night upon arrival to Costa Rica and had to cancel at the last minute because we didn't make our flight. Although at that point they could have charged us full fare, they gave us a full refund. Then we did stay there on our last night. I had fallen the day before and couldn't walk. Winston had our room ready by 11:00 and although I had crutches I couldn't use them on the few steps that they had. Winston practically lifted me up over them, taught me how to use the crutches and gave me so much positive vibes he was like my own personal Physical therapist. The room was comfy and breakfast is in a charming little courtyard. I will definitely recommend Casa 69 to my friends and would stay there again in a heartbeat. Thank you Winston!

Calm, laid back family run place in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance to barrio Escalante and city center.. wifi was good, breakfast was awesome, First time I've experienced dorm beds getting made everyday with clean bedsheets and towel! The garden area was a nice place to chill. The family was very humble and welcoming.. will definitely stay again.

As we stepped into Tierra Magica, there was a gentle breeze with a sweet calmness surrounded by beautiful gardens, lovely architecture and divine earthy art. The room was impecable with a great shower in a beautifully designed solarium and I loved that the room had a fridge! The Breakfast was excellent in a beautiful courtyard.

    It was the ideal spot to relax after a long plane trip. It was very close to the airport. The room was great. Especially nice were all the restaurants and the pool, which was very nice and family friendly. I was on a Windstar Cruise, and the next day we left for the cruise. It would be a nice jump off for any tour schedule, or to stay for a few days.

    We only used it as a place to get our head down before getting away from San Jose. Which it was perfect for, pool was fun for the kids, breakfast was great and the staff were helpful in organising a taxi to leave.

    We stayed here the night before an early morning flight - family or 4 with kids aged 12 & 14 Let’s be clear - the hotel needs some work, it looks tired in places but for us it was just what we needed. We had an upgraded room with plenty of room, coffee and teak making and a microwave. The kids enjoyed the swimming pool and hot pools, The pool table (even though it needs new cues) and the games tables. We ate in the Pirates bar - food not expensive and just acceptable. We used free shuttle to airport. Very good.
