We originally reserved a room with shared bath, which was small and faced the street, and then splurged on a room facing the gorge. The rooms are medium size, clean, and lots of character. We had a small balcony from which to sip wine, and enjoy the view. it is centrally located in the town, and walking distance to all... More

First and foremost, the hospitality and customer service are outstanding. Jose and Alcides at the desk, thank you again for going above and beyond to make our stay so enjoyable. Our room was spacious, very clean, and comfortable with a nice ceiling fan to keep us cool at night. It also had a small balcony with a beautiful view of... More

We flew from NYC to San Jose on an evening flight, so we stayed at Posada El Quijote the night of our arrival. We also stayed here for our last night, before flying out early the next morning. We traveled with our two young daughters, ages 8 and 6. This place was just perfect for us -- and the staff,... More

Staff is friendly and helpful. Rooms were very comfortable and nice wood floors. Location is a $2-$3 taxi ride to Escazu. (only downfall) Great views from the lobby area (and some rooms) and lovely grounds. The included breakfast was delicious. Bacon, eggs (done perfect), toast, fried plantains, rice and beans, juice, coffee and wonderful bowl of fresh fruit. Yummy. Would... More

We stayed here in 2007 on our way to Tortuguero National Park and this time we were going to Arenal Volcano. It was like we were had never left - there is nothing like quite like being greeted by friendly familiary faces while travelling and as with last time José was a shining star. José once again ensured that our... More

We stayed here again for our first and last night of our holiday in Costa Rica and it was perfect again. It truly is a home away from home and the atmosphere there is so relaxing. Perfect location to get to the new highway towards the Pacific coast. Add the proximity to some great restaurants (Saga and Serutti) and the... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Posada El Quijote. From the moment we arrived, we were charmed by the gorgeous tile work and rich hues. The manager greeted us warmly and gave us a free upgrade to a suite with no extra charge, which was fantastic. The gardens and view of San Jose from the wide porch that stretched the... More

I spent a day at this B&B and felt at home. The grounds were beautiful. Keep in mind that there is no pool. There are mango trees in the yard that yield the most delightful mangoes. The manager was very attentive to our needs and the staff was very knowledgeable of surrounding area and gave recommendations for food. Once the... More

We only stayed for two nights, but the staff made our trip to Costa Rica much easier. They helped us rent a car, helped us find another hotel along our route and helped us book dinner reservations. Our room was spacious and clean and our breakfast was all fresh and very good. Our only complaint was that the bed was... More
