We really enjoyed our stay at Casa 69. The rooms were very clean. You have an awesome view of the City from the rooftop balcony. It is also located within walking distance of downtown. The staff is also great. We had a walking tour of downtown and were uncertain of how to get there. So one of the hotel staff... More

I booked this place for one night a few weeks ago. Not only was the whole process seamless (from the booking emails, to the airport pickup, to check-in) but these people are genuine and want to make sure you have a good time. The room was large and clean. There was a bit of a smell from cats that another... More

I have stayed in this B&B three times while in San Jose and it is the staff that makes this place so wonderful. This B&B is located down a small back street and is very easy to miss, but don't let the surroundings fool you. Both sections of the hotel are gated and I would recommend staying in the biggest...

We recently completed our first trip to Costa Rica January 18-28, 2012. We decided to spend our first and last nights in San Jose. We stayed at Casa 69. This place is incredible! No its not super luxurious but it is very nice and clean. The rooftop has a deck that overlooks San Jose. The staff was very courteous and... More

I recently stayed at Casa 69. The staff could not have been more helpful and friendly, delightful. However the new owner Donna needs to work on her customer sevice skills. She is rather aloof and and disinterested. I don't require much other than a quick hello or a smile as I pass through and offer the same. I do recommend... More

Thank you for your review, and the many positive comments. I would like to apologize that we were not able to be at our best when you were here. Unfortunately Donna was needed to deal with a serious family illness in Canada. This required her to spend a great deal of her time on the phone and placed a lot... More

Nothing has changed other than the owner and some upgrades on the room decoration. The hotel is still gay managed, and same staff as I've seen for years. I had no problem with bringing guests to my room. Over half the guests are gay. The location is great, only 15 minutes walking from the National Theatre. 5 minutes walking to... More

Thank you for your very review. We are a gay friendly Hotel that welcomes everybody. I would like to list some of the activities in our area. We are a 5 minute walk to the National Museum, 10-15 minutes to several other museums, 10 minute walk to the downtown pedestrian mall, many other shopping areas, and close to many excellent... More

Casa 69 is a remarkable place - tranquil and beautifully decorated with fresh flowers and a peaceful garden courtyard - and the most amazing staff and service you could ever want. The manager, Ralph, was simply wonderful. He personally got on the phone with a shuttle driver who had ripped me off - then followed up by calling me days... More

This was the second time we stayed at Casa 69, the first was in February 2011. On both trips, we used this as our overnight stop on each end of a trip to the Carribean coast. Service was excellent, including the arranged airport pick up and drop off. Our driver filled us in on the sights in the city on... More

We needed an overnighter for our dash in and out of San Jose and did not care for the airport area options so, Casa 69 was our choice. Located somewhere in town, San Jose does not appear to make use of street signs(?!), and walking distance to everything we were looking for, this place was a super find and a... More

Probably the best hotel to stay in San Jose. Each room is uniquely designed, the living rooms is extremely cosy with a large LCD and a fast iMac (to accommodate all internet needs) and the breakfast is the best we had in CR (but additional payment is required for omelets and pancakes). The manager and staff was extremely nice and... More
