Pros: The food was amazing in the restaurant, though definitely $$$. Loved how comfy the beds were, how super clean it was, loved the service, and really everything was 100%. The staff went out of their way to make sure that when breakfast only opened 30 min before our private transport was due to arrive, that they had everything mad for us quickly for breakfast and it tasted amazing! Had an excellent night of sleep here and they were just the friendliest and the cleanest. Worth it.

Cons: Given the age of the building the rooms are quite dated and to be honest let the hotel down a little. We had a very small bed that was not overly comfortable.

Cons: The nuns next door were having a crazy loud party. I was assured this is pretty unusual, and in fact the three other times I’ve stayed, it has been incredibly quiet there. Best sleep in San Jose.

Cons: Shower: the shower comes with the curtain and water easily gets on the floor Hair dryer: it’s broken in my room! Staff: the front-desk staff in the night shift needs to be retrained. We were waiting in the line for long time for an easy store shopping check out. His coworker was walking around without helping him despite of the line and he didn’t apologize for the long waiting at all

Pros: Personnel was incredibly helpful, polite, and caring. Mr. Alvino helped me changing a flat tire; I cannot thank him enough.
Cons: Other customers sat at my breakfast table without asking, and there were many other tables free to use. I felt my space and privacy violated. I wish the waiter had redirect them to a different table. But, it was not the waiter's fault really. The eggs were very runny. Maybe a more Costarican typical breakfast would be the cherry on top.

Pros: Excellent staff. Very accommodating. Restaurant has the best vegetarian sandwich...hands down (which was wonderful to have something on the menu for vegetarians). I may be a cheap skate I tend to book hotels based on price. After staying here, I decided that I will pay the little extra (because it really was a fair price for excellent accommodation) and make this hotel my regular stay over when in San Jose. It is a 20min ride from the airport so that has to be a consideration. But I ended up being very, very, pleased with the overall experience. I'm actually looking forward to going back and falling in the bed and ordering room service.

Cons: I booked because there was an indication that this hotel had a hotel shuttle to the airport included in the price ( it does offer this service BUT this is an extra $30). The hotel is a 20min or so drive from the airport so it was very important to me. I ended up taking an Uber ($10). The young lady at the front desk helped me out and relieved me of a lot of stress. This was true thoughtfulness and a show of excellent service indeed. One light by the bed didn't work but I was so very comfortable that this didn't matter much.

Pros: I stayed at Hotel Ambassador at the last minute because my husband was ill and in hospital close to Hotel Ambassador. My check in experience was difficult as I was distracted and booked the wrong day. The gentleman on reception managed to change it for me and was very helpful despite the fact that we had language difficulties. Definitely my problem and not his. The morning front desk attendant spoke English, was very personable and accommodating and called a taxi for me after breakfast.

Cons: As I showed up not prepared, the fact that there was no shampoo or hair dryer was a minor issue. The room was basic so no clock radio, toiletries except bar soap, no hot water in the bathroom sink so I guess I am a bit spoiled in that respect.
4.6 Okay
Pros: Friendly receptionist
Cons: Lousy lighting, shoddy furniture, floorboards warped, a cheap cheap room for to much money. And two bucks day for a safe box key, ridiculous when all hotels provide that free. Breakfast experience not good either: take this rice and beans or eggs and be happy
4.2 Okay
Pros: The breakfast was okay. The second staff member at the front desk (a lady) was very helpful and friendly
Cons: Upon first arriving the guy at the front desk came out to complain, about the car stopping in the front to let me off. No hello no help with bags, not even to help with bags to room. The shower walls was awful, noticeable grimes.
