Alajuela Hotels with Gym

The property is convenient to the airport and the rooms are decent and the breakfast is adequate. Overall, the staff there also seemed to be nice. We only stayed one night while transiting through SJO. Normally, I would have given them 4 stars but the primary reason I”m giving them 1 star is because their billing and management department seems to be atrocious. After, we checked out, we were supposed to receive our invoice by email but did not receive it. The elite nights and points for the stay also did not get posted despite the reservation being done directly through the marriott website. Multiple attempts to contact them and ask them for the invoice have failed. I have opened up a support request with Marriott helpdesk (i'm a Titanium elite) and they have been working for a week to get a simple invoice to be sent properly. It seems their billing and management is handled by someone from the adjacent courtyard and that person/team is totally incompetent.

The hotel is next to the airport. There is a shuttle that oicks you up and takes you there every 30 minutes; they should make it every 15 minutes being so close. There is a Walmart next to the hotel and 3 restaurants in fron of the lobby: peruvian, argentinian and costa rican. The gym had everything and breakfast was ok, but not great.

This hotel is a solid option by the San Jose, Costa Rica airport. We stayed here on the first and last nights of our vacation. The pros of this hotel are definitely the shuttle to and from the airport (runs 24/7 though we had to wait almost 45 minutes for the shuttle), the free breakfast and the proximity to the airport. The beds, however, are incredibly hard and springy. I slept in the bed with my teenager and every time he moved, the whole bed shook. The air conditioning is loud and the appointments are super basic. It was clean and I would stay here again, but be warned the beds are uncomfortable.

We stayed there for one night before flying back home, since our flight was early in the morning. The hotel is quite nice, some pieces are outdated, but still in good condition. The area is very quiet and well maintained. The staff at the reception is very friendly and helpful. That includes the cat who may walk with you to your room ;) Plenty of parking space. The rooms are different from other hotels, lots of wood, even wooden floors. I loved it, better feeling than ceramic tiles and plain white walls. The beds are comfortable and large. The bathrooms are a bit old but everything works and everything is spotless. The only thing I would mention is that there are no fridges and coffee makers in the room. You can actually ask for the coffee maker. But for the fridge - you will have to get some ice (near the pool table). Please note that this review does not cover the steak house, only the hotel.

I appreciated that the room was spotlessly clean, with all sorts of amenities. The staff was very proactive and helpful, and the location right across from the airport was the main reason I chose it. The problem, though, is that our room (#135) had no window curtains to block out light. All it had was a flimsy screen that you could easily see through. I imagine anyone passing by the first floor room would have been able to see inside the room, because it was easy to see outside through the screen. At night-which comes very early in the tropics-the light from eight powerfully bright lights in the parking lot lit up our room. There was no way to darken the room, the light was so bright you could have read by it. None. Hence I got NO sleep because the room was lit up. Please, put up black out curtains.

Good reception, availability, despite a short stay everything was there for us to feel good. We will come back with pleasure.

Ghost hotel, huge grounds but with minimal number of guests. Furniture and room, bathroom were very outdated. Smelled funny inside. Cleaning staff left cleaning supplies in the bathroom by accident. One of the bedrooms had no window and the lighting in the whole apartment was very dark. Air conditioning worked well. The rooms are large and comfortable however my mattress was lopsided and I kept falling off the bed all night. No shampoo or soap provided and shower had some animal poop. The restaurant staff was ok but not the friendliest. Minimal vegan options at the restaurants. Breakfast was also not the best. Rice and beans had minimal flavor, fruit was good but for a vegan not many other options such as bread or avocado. The pool looked great but didn’t have much shade provided with umbrellas or trees. The gym was closed. Would not stay here again as it didn’t feel very vacation like.
