The restaurant was the highlight of this place. Amazing brewery and really good food. Staff was so sweet. Relaxing atmosphere in the restaurant after traveling through San Jose, made us feel like we were in the n file for one more night before flying home. Easy to and from the airport.

Charming older hotel near the airport
We had a comfortable stay at the Hotel Aeropuerto. It is a charming hotel and I would have given it five stars if it hadn’t cost close so much and our tv didn’t work.

*****
Our first night stay in Costa Rica it was lovely, we got picked up at the airport in an old Mitsubishi van and they brought us to the beautiful hotel Aeropuerto. Everything was very clean our room had airconditioning and hot water. A nice quiet night and a good sleep. had the breakfast which was quite tasty and then took a cab to the Tracopa bus station in San Jose.

Mattresses are uncomfortable, rooms looks like they were last updated in the 80’s minus the tvs. Restaurant on site couldn’t get our order right and we tried repeatedly just ordering regular menu items we didn’t even ask for changed or substitutions. Property itself is gorgeous but 30ft off super busy highway so very noisy.

This was once a prime property (I think) and still has the old times charm. We enjoyed our stay and it is very close to the airport. The property has gardens and mature trees etc. The onsite restaurant/microbrewery was pretty good too the building and rooms are calling for some TLC: like internal plumbing updates...and updating the bathrooms. I understand such overhaul is very expensive for an independent property, but without it, it is performing way below its potential. Overall very satisfied, a steal for the price, I'd say . The checkin/out was smooth. The breakfast has room for improvement. Staff were attentive. Will stay again.

We didn’t really enjoy this hotel. We were only there for 1 night, but we arrived at the airport at 8:30 and had to wait until 9:30 for the shuttle. It was clean-ish and we didn’t really feel very welcome. No bottled water in the room. Very bare bones.

Great food, entertainment and drinks. The facility itself is in need of repairs and updates. When it rains the walkways internal and external flood.
The rooms are alittle dirty, but the floor plan in the family suites is excellent giving kids and parents separate but connected sleeping spaces.

Not bad for an airport hotel. The room was nice and comfortable and spacious. We liked that the restaurant was right there and it was very good. The free ride to the airport was great and we appreciated it. It was everything we needed. The staff was great and courteous.

The restaurant looked good and the property was a neat concept to have an old building as a hotel felt rich in history but the cleanliness was abismal. We encountered 5 live roaches and two dead ones. One of the dead roaches was so old it was stuck to the floor so it leads us to believe they never cleaned the room in between uses. The ceiling was decorated with hundreds of dead insects and the tv had a broken line all the way across so watching tv to help drown the mosquitoes out wasn’t an option. We were traveling with small children and they didn’t have anything to help with that aspect not even a mini fridge to help keep milk for the baby. I wouldn’t stay there ever again.
