Residence Inn By Marriott San Jose Alajuela El Coyol

10/10 Excellent
"BRAND NEW- That as of August 2026, the hotel and each room’s furnishing and thoughtful kitchen implements were so sparkling clean was really fun. Wish we could have stayed longer, but had to fly. Easy car park on ground level. Easy to find SJO and rental car return after a great night’s sleep."
