    Perfect little oasis in San Jose”

    The place was really clean and spacious. The staff was extremely friendly, I had a little cold and the lady who made my check in help me with a tea. The water in the shower was warm, and the hotel offers a convenient service of restaurant. I have my breakfast there on the day that I left for the airport and it was really good
    I’ve learned that the owners of the establishment own a coffee plantation. I was a bit disappointed to learn that it was not possible at the time to purchase the coffee, but I was told that the hotel organizes tour to visit cell plantation if booked in advance

    We had a very great stay at the hotel. The welcome is very friendly, the smiling and helpful staff answer all your questions to make your stay easier. The extra breakfast is very good and plentiful. The rooms and common areas are very clean and comfortable, plus the pleasant little terrace. The location 20 minutes walk from the city center is convenient. And the cat (if you have the chance to meet her) is sooo cute !!! I recommend this hostel without hesitation! Pura Vida

    Great for a night in San Jose”

    The staff at Del Cafetal was incredible. Even with the language barrier, they were able to arrange an airport pickup from us, help us get a bus to La Fortuna the next morning, got us set up with Costa Rican SIM cards right away and offered to cook dinner for us late at night. I cannot say enough about how incredible the staff is here. The room is small, but comfortable and the bathroom is clean. It was great for our short stop in San Jose before carrying on.

    It´s a cliché to speak about a "family atmosphere" in a hotel but if you get stuck there for the whole of 11 days due to the covid quarantaine and the personnel starts to treat you as a member of their own family, rebooking other guests to ensure your privacy, collecting your contaminated garbage from the doorstep, sharing their own exquisite meals and pointing out they make them "extra nutritive" because of you, that´s quite a different story. I wish every traveller not to have to experience what I have (positive test result on the day of departure...) but if for fortune´s sake you do, bless you God with getting you to a place similar to Delcafetal. Pura vida!

    The Host & Hostess, along with all their staff were most accommodating, arranging every comfort!”

    The meals were exceptional, well done with a Costa Rican flare! The home was quiet and peaceful, all staff and guests were equally respectful.
    A longer stay would have been preferred, however, there is always next time! I understand January, February, and March are all great months to visit Costa Rica.
