A Jewel in Costa Rica, walking distance to all shops in city,shopping centres. Restaurant and Bar in house and so many activities are held. Rooftop out door lounging, recharging, kitchen and cooking area for your own needs. Many nooks and crannies for solo meditation and reading. Cafes across the road. Staff are the best, so helpful, spotlessly clean, overall it’s a top spot, I’d highly recommend The ViaJero

Excellent location. I commend the staff for waking me up for a tour that I booked before it was too late. The room could have been more spacious though.

Curtains on the bed which is a killer feature to get some intimacy and sleep better. Common spaces are well designed. Yoga class in the morning is highly recommended. People are welcoming but usually won't stay for long as San Jose is usually a step to go somewhere else. Except a few co-workers.

When I booked, I didn't expect to find such a good hotel. Pleasantly surprised… I'll be back.

The hostel is very nice and stylishly furnished and is very well located near the city center, so that all the big museums and the theater as well as many bars, cafes and restaurants are within walking distance. It is a hostel, so you can't expect absolute peace and quiet, but I didn't find it disturbing. Street noise is negligible. The staff is very friendly and helpful, everything is clean. By car from the airport, the journey takes about 40 minutes outside of rush hour.
