"This hotel is conveniently located in downtown San Jose. Parking was easy enough in a secure lot around the corner. Breakfast was a highlight, with an array of fresh fruits, gallo pinto, and scrambled eggs. Our room (35) had an exceedingly small bathroom and had windows facing the street, though noise was not bad. Our television did not work, but the bed was comfortable enough. "

"We purchased a day pass to enjoy the beautiful hot springs at Rio Perlas Thermal Resort & Spa, and it was absolutely worth it! The pools were relaxing and well-maintained, and we also went on a scenic hike that made the experience even more special. One of the highlights was visiting the farm and getting to pet the animals—it added such a fun, unique touch. We had an amazing time overall and definitely plan to return when we’re back in Costa Rica!"
