Top San Jose Hotel Reviews

Fairfield by Marriott San Jose Airport Alajuela

8/10 Good

"The property was clean. The staff were nice and welcoming. The location is conveniently located right next to a Walmart and down the road from the mall. The room was big and beautiful. My only issue was the fridge. It does not operate as a fridge; it does not keep anything cool. If you want something kept cool, you have to leave it downstairs with front desk. They will place it in the kitchen’s fridge. The onsite breakfast was okay, typical options with the addition of traditional Costa Rican breakfast."
