Top San José Hotel Reviews

Hotel Mango

Hotel Mango

8/10 Good
"The hotel was nice and clean. The location near the airport was very convenient but came with a few drawbacks. The hotel is located on a very busy street and it's very difficult to turn into the parking lot ( it took me 10 minutes and lots of patience to do it). Also, being so close to the airport, the load roars of flights departing and landing every few minutes can be rough. Otherwise, they offer free shuttle to airport which make it very convenient."
