Parque del Lago is located right at the beginning of the main road in San Jose, right off of the Panamerican Highway. It is relatively convienient to the airport (about 15 minutes by cab) - Parque will give you a free cab ride to the airport if you communicate with them prior to your stay and let the know if your arrival. Stay also includes free, continental breakfast, which can be turned into a complete breakfast buffer with a wide selection of fruits and Costa Rican dishes.
Rooms are decorated with a modern flair - beds are somewhat comfortable. Rooms are apportioned with flat-screen TV's and high-speed (for Costa Rica) wireless internet access, which is slow at times, but good enough. Bathrooms are spartan, but clean.
Customer service is phenomenal - very helpful, speaking good English, and always able to provide the proper advice for any question - from how much time to get to a business destination, to restaurant suggestions. I must suggest the restaurant at the Grano de Oro hotel - just a few blocks away. Great atmosphere and decent prices for wonderful food.
I would return here again for a one or two night stay. Perfect for business travel or for the one night stay going to from other CR destinations on the way to/from the airport.
