“Hidden Jem”

Very friendly and welcoming staff. This hotel is an oasis located five minutes from the airport. Highly recommended especially for travellers arriving or departing Costa Rica.

“True Tico Hospitality!!”

This hotel was really amazing! To be so close to the airport but to feel like you are in a beautiful tropical setting is quite unique. I had looked at the other chain hotels near the airport and was so happy that we ultimately chose this Inn instead. The room was traditional and pleasant with a beautiful balcony overlooking the pool and the property was quite stunning. The dinner was absolutely delicious (try the beef and the fish!) as was the breakfast, which was included in the hotel price. It was served on the beautiful open air terrace by the lovely owner and included fresh fruit, eggs, rice & beans, etc. But the reason I absolutely must recommend this hotel is because the owners were so incredibly kind and concerned when we thought someone had stolen my ipad from our room. Both my mother and I had looked everywhere in the room and could not find it! The owners were incredibly concerned (they had never had anything stolen before) and immediately called the police and asked their staff if they had seen it, etc. They could not have been more helpful and nice. Imagine our surprise (and embarrassment!) when they called the shuttle driver and told us to come back to the hotel because they had found it!! It somehow slipped into a dark corner between the bed frame and mattress. I felt terrible!!! But I could not have been more happy with the true Tico warmth and hospitality displayed by the lovely owners. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!!! We will definitely return!

“very nic end to the trip”

Very clean and extremely safe gated enterance. Would recommend

“Costa Rica Charm Near the Airport”

We recently stayed at the Trapp Family Country Inn on two nights - when first arriving in Costa Rica and the night before leaving. We wanted something close to the airport, but not a chain hotel, and we were not disappointed. The hotel is an oasis of Costa Rica charm amidst the highways and factories surrounding the airport. We arrived late at night and someone was waiting at the gate to accompany us to our room. He even brought us cold beers. The room had a musty smell and the bathroom door was difficult to close, but otherwise was clean and comfortable with a large balcony overlooking the pool. No AC, but a ceiling fan and large doors that opened to the balcony made for comfortable sleeping. A full breakfast was included and served on a large porch outside the reception area. On our second night there, we ate a delicious dinner, also served outside on the porch. The hotel arranged for a free ride to the airport at 6 am the next morning. A nice way to end our Costa Rica vacation.

“Not much of a satisfaction”

I could not find even a shampoo in the morning. My bag was lost so I had to wash my hair with a soap. I could not turn on TV-there were no instructions how to use 2 remote controls. the room smelled with a mould.

“A Disappointing Experience”

This hotel is reasonably priced and conveniently located for anyone wishing to connect with the San Jose airport. Housed in an attractive building and grounds, including an outdoor pool, the rooms are large although very basic. A simple breakfast is included in the cost [and some food may be available up to a certain time - this wasn't clear] but after that there are no food options nearby which is problematic if you do not have a car. We were directed to two small, minimally stocked grocery shops about a 10-minute walk on an extremely busy main road that is very dangerous for anyone on foot, especially after dark.) The main problem lay with our room. As soon as night fell the room was full of mosquitoes and similar flying insects. With no air conditioning in the room and with no screens on the huge 'venetian doors' that opened onto the fresh air outside, we spent the night spraying and swatting bugs and choking on insect repellent in a sealed, hot stuffy room, with only an overhead fan to keep the air moving. I would gladly have paid more for a superior experience. It is unfortunate because a lot of attention has obviously been paid to developing this property.
