The Nirvana Hostal was the perfect oasis for me before my departure and Kenneth was a super friendly host. He also offered me the chance to stay for the day as my flight wasn't until the evening. So I was able to rest and relax. I had dinner nearby in the evening and breakfast at a soda. Both on Kenneth's good recommendation. The apartment also had its own small kitchen with coffee and tea included. I have already made a reservation, will be back and am happy to recommend Nirvana Apartement to others.

    We stayed after a long flight just for one night and it was perfect to rest and recover. This place has a great relaxed feel to it with comfortable communal areas. We were a family with 2 older teenagers and had 3 rooms, all well equipped and comfortable with excellent air-conditioning and bathroom facilities. The staff were very helpful and friendly and communication was excellent. The rooms were very comfortable and the ability to use the kitchen to make a little breakfast before we left was great. I wish we has stayed longer.

    The staff was super friendly and helpful. I don’t know if there were other guests. The children were nice and well-behaving, but if you’re looking for a hostel-like place, this is not like that. I felt like staying in a family’s home.

    We arrived earlier than expected and were admitted into our rooms which were spacious and comfortable. Great place to stay while waiting for a flight out of San Jose Airport. Beautiful secure grounds. Ideal for travelling families - plenty of space for children to run around after or before a plane journey.
