San José

F&M Guesthouse in San José provides adults-only accommodation with a garden and a shared lounge. This bed and breakfast offers free private parking, a lift and free WiFi. The accommodation provides full-day security and room service for guests. The breakfast was absolutely amazing! Additionally, Fabien went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable, got settled into Costa Rica, and literally went above and beyond in every single way to help me with whatever I needed. The home is small, but extremely clean. He was very respectful of my space and my needs and I felt completely safe and comfortable. This is a property I would highly recommend to anyone looking to spend a day or two in San Jose. His local knowledge and willingness to share that and assist me was truly exceptional. I will encourage any family and friends heading to Costa Rica to start their trip with him.

Complete with a private bathroom equipped with a a bath or shower and a hair dryer, the units at the bed and breakfast have a TV and air conditioning, and selected rooms are fitted with a seating area. At the bed and breakfast, all units come with bed linen and towels. My flight was going to land in SJ at 1am. Before the trip, I reached out to the property owners and asked them if I could check in so early. They were super kind and accommodating. Someone met me at the property at 2am, and that was a good reminder of just how nice Costa Ricans are. The property manager was really kind, welcoming, and gracious. She was very helpful and helped me with directions (she actually accompanied me to the location) and made my stay really comfortable. The location itself is nice and quiet. The property is beautiful, minimalistic, and eco-friendly. Rooms are really clean with tons of natural light and zero clutter. Really kind positive energy. I loved staying here. Namaste.

Poas National Park is 47 km from the bed and breakfast, while Estadio Nacional de Costa Rica is less than 1 km from the property. The nearest airport is Tobías Bolaños International Airport, 4 km from Corazón Sabana. Great place to stay. Quieter (and i think more expensive) part of town. Felt quite safe. The guest house itself is really comfortable, great beds and all the amenities available. Shared bathrooms are no issue, as there are a couple available per the limited number of rooms.
