I had a wonderful stay here! The room was very clean, spacious, and comfortable. The whole house is beautifully kept and very well maintained. The host is incredibly welcoming and makes you feel at home rather than just a visitor. The Wi-Fi works great, and you can use the kitchen and living room. There’s also a lovely, friendly dog. The location is perfect close to the city center, with many restaurants and shops nearby. Alajuela feels safe and friendly, and I’d definitely come back!

Edward was a great host! On our way from the airport to Edward we got scammed by an unofficial “taxi” who tried to raise the price and drove in circles in a shady area. We called Edward from the way and he stayed on the line with us until we got to the place. He also waited outside and helped us with handling the payment to the scammers. He really made us feel secure and welcome in Costa Rica. Other than that we had a great stay, the room is big and accommodating and the breakfast was great. Edward offers shuttles from and to the airport which we will use next time around. Overall, We highly recommend Edward’s place

Location was good, close to airport- a cheap Uber ride for less than $4 to the airport was helpful. The late overnight staff member (after 10pm) was nice and friendly, as were the morning female staff members... this was in stark contrast to the guy who checked us in on arrival. The staff at the parking lot a block away were friendly and easy going. The balcony was cute and you can see the mountains in the distance.

hostess was amazing. she went above and beyond in helping me with many heavy pieces of luggage as I am disabled with back injuries. she prepared food to my preference (vegan) and offered to cook more. the room was adequate, quiet and clean. the bathroom was spotless, the shower had good water pressure and was hot. the location is great to get to the airport and the price is very affordable.
