This clean and comfortable apartment is located in one of the safest areas of San José province next to two shopping mall that offer all you need from supermarkets to restaurants and different shops. The gym and pool with a stunning view over the city are wonderful, access to the building is easy, WiFi is fast, and Illeana, the owner of the flat, is super responsive and polite. Absolutely recommended.

Good location. Since there are a lot of homeless people in San Jose, it can be scary at first. But the place was safe and good value, clean and friendly service. The breakfast team would be especially praised!
