      "Airport location" Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 26, 2013

      Room was very comfortable and the breakfast was very good. Lots of fresh fruit and choices of hot or cold items. The only reason I stayed here was because of the proximity to the airport and the free shuttle. But I enjoyed my one night there very much.

      "Golfer" Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 25, 2013

      This was my 2nd time staying at the B.W. Downtown and I was there on New year's eve 2012 and also back in August. The staff is pleasant, the hotel is clean, there is free internet and international calls. There is a Gray line tour office on site and the guy who runs it is extremely helpful. He set up a day trip for me to play golf at la Iguana golf course on the coast. For the price of the rooms it can't be beat. You are only 15min from the airport. The money you save here can be better used exploring the city and country.

      "across from walmart" Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 25, 2013

      the people were nice - there is plenty of places to eat within the secure complex. Im not rating higher due to A/C issues - they couldnt...or wouldnt re-program the temp to a lower setting. the lobby was nice and cool but my room stayed at a constant hot level. and windows dont open so my stay was quite uncomfortable. If you plan to book tours - they will make you take a taxi to other hotels as this one is out of the way and the tours dont pick up or drop off here.

    VERY VERY nice hotel. I was greeted by Alesandro (sp?) one of the bellmen, he was super nice and helpful. All of the staff were very nice. The hotel... adventure coordinator Richard was the best. He is super cool and a really great person. He hooked me up with the best tours and activities making my trip very exciting. THANKS RICHARD!!! You are the best. He likes to be called Richard and not Ricardo. by Rich  from New Jersey on 06/12/13

The breakfast food, selection and restaurant facility was excellent. I have chosen to give this hotel a 5.0 in all but quality because I wish we had not had difficulty […] 2 of our 3 night stay getting face wash clothes replaced. From our 10 days travel in Costa Rica it seems such items are not in common usage except in American chain hotels. Read more

    We stayed here because this is the hotel our tour left from the following day. Chose it because of the free shuttle, but shuttle was not available for at least an hour, so we spent $30 on a taxi from the airport. Room was great, but free wifi would have been nice, even if the cost was hidden in the room price. The buffet lunch was exorbitantly priced […] at $64 for limited choices and so-so food. Most staff was friendly except one desk guy who ignored me to speak Spanish to a guy who came in after me. Read more

    We checked in to the hotel which was full that night. One couple in our party had a problem in that their reservation was not found right off so the hotel asked if we would consider staying in a 2 room suite. They upgraded us for free to the Presidential Suite which was fine with us and very luxurious. What a nice welcome to Costa Rica!

    We only stayed here one night before heading to the coast, but our night there was great! The shuttle picked us up at the airport and the driver was really nice. The young lady who checked us in was extremely pleasant, and our room was clean & beautiful, with all sorts of amenities. I was thankful for the ice machine (didn't have one anywhere else in […] CR) The grounds are beautiful, well cared for. It was relaxing to sit at the restaurant by the pool, enjoying a cervesa & some dinner. Retired to a comfy bed early, watched a little english speaking TV, and in the morning had a fabulous breakfast buffet. We would absolutely return here again, and recommend it to friends! The only downside for us was that you can't walk around outside the property (we like to explore on foot), but I think is a problem throughout San Jose Read more

    The Hotel is located near a busy freeway and the suite we booked was not sound proof at all. So it made for a loud stay. Breakfast was less than desirable. The hotel seams to be understaffed. I would not recommend staying at this hotel if you are looking for a relaxing stay.

    This is a very nice hotel. I have stayed here many, many times during the last several years. However, last year became suspicious that the taxi cab drivers servicing this hotel were overcharging. Since they do not use meters, they charge whatever they want. Earlier this year I began comparing thier prices to the prices that the metered cabs charge. […] I have found that on short trips to places like Pavas they charge up to four times more than metered drivers. Trips across town are 50 - 60% higher thant he metered rate. When asking the drivers about the rates they conveniently forget to speak English and try to change the subject. I have had two confrontations with different drivers regarding thier overcharging. This is a very nice hotel and the rooms are priced very reasonably. However, if you need a taxi, you will lose anything you save on the room rate to these thieves. Read more

    Everything is OK, but the complementary shuttle service from the airport to the hotel was not good. We arrived at the airport around 9:30 pm and walked out to the shuttle bus station before 10:00 pm. We have callled to the hotel and advised that we needed the shuttle service earlier (instead of originally arranged 10:30 pm). But, the shuttle bus arrived […] at 10:55 pm. It only took us 15 mins to the hotel. We were not happy with the situation. Read more

    Breakfast was outstanding. The amount of choice staggering. The room was nice but the maids forgot to put any towels in the bathroom and there were no stirrers or sugar or creamers with the coffee pot. Staff behind the main desk were very helpful and friendly. We wanted to walk into town just half a kilometer away but couldn't because of the location. […] So we hopped into our rental car and got to town in two minutes. Read more

    I go back and forth between this and another hotel close to the international airport in Costa Rica. What works: rooms are comfortable and clean, great pool and gardens, buffets are a nice touch. What could be better: check-in/check-out are almost always slow, if you do not want a buffet it is necessary to chase down a waitress to get a menu, paying […] extra for internet is an annoyance, and the shuttle is not as convenient as I have experienced with other hotels providing this service. A good value and recommended because what works outweighs the few things that need improvement. Read more

    I booked this hotel for a single night stay before heading up to the Lake Arenal area and it was pleasantly comfortable and well appointed for the comparatively lower price than the major chains in the city. The only issues we had were a mini-fridge that did not work. The hotel offered to move us to a different room or replace the fridge with a working […] one, but as we were there for one night and didn't need it we declined. The shuttle picked us up on-time from the airport and it was a short trip to the hotel with a friendly driver. There was absolutely no issue with noise inside the room or in common areas. The free breakfast buffet was fantastic and offered everything from an omelet bar to fresh fruit, yogurt, juices, pastries, cereal, meats, quiche and native cuisine. The servers even accommodated special requests for a fruit smoothie and were friendly and attentive. I would definitely stay at this hotel again. Read more
