It was comfortable clean and quiet and convenient for the airport -but best of all the family were so welcoming and helpful - I was really touched by their kindness. They went above and beyond what they needed to do to make my stay good . I joined them for a BBQ and they helped me by being able to purchase transport to the airport and breakfast which made things very easy - and went out of their way to help me find an ATM .

We highly recommend the breakfast - it's delicious and you can choose if you would like to eat in the dining room of the farm house or outside in the garden. They also provide yoga mats to use in the garden.

    Safe and near airport location with kind host (who also helps with airport pick up and drop of). Grocery shop, pizza takeout near by. The room is quiet and it’s part of a family house. The room was clean and comfortable.

    I felt so welcome at Casa Granitas! From the accommodations to the free shuttle (to and from the airport) to the recommendations I received from my hosts. It’s also located in a beautiful, quiet neighbourhood not far from the airport.

    Friendly staff, very easy pickup from the airport at night and after a 10-15 minute drive arrived at the guest house. It was very comfortable, clean and quiet. Perfect if you’re flying in late and need a reliable and comfortable place to stay after your flight.

    Great host, made us feel very welcome. The property itself is like a home away from home, we planned on doing a day in San José but instead stayed the day in the house and the town as it felt like a home for us. Great kitchen to cook, cosy bedroom in a quaint town by the airport. Great stay!

    The place looked like it was a new renovation/ remodel. It was clean, bright, tastefully decorated. The location was in a quiet residential neighborhood. Across the street is a restaurant that serves mostly Chinese food. Down the street about a block and a half is a popular Costa Rican food restaurant. The host provided free wifi, was communicative before and after check in via whatsapp. Free pick up and drop off at the airport was a great service. We had to leave at 5 a.m. for our flight, but the host happily obliged.

    It was great to have the airport shuttle to and from the airport. The unit was very clean. The outside yard was lovely to sit out in the evening. Our hosts were amazing, from directing us to a nice restaurant to providing fresh coffee at 5:00 am. We felt comfortable just sitting and chatting with them. The casa is in a nice quiet neighborhood and we felt completely safe.
