It is near the central market. Free nice breakfast though it is the same everyday. There is an elevator in the building but was on maintenance on the day I checked out. Chaotic surroundings. Unbearable sewage smell in room. Despite near the bus terminal for airport bus, it is not easy to get to the bus stop outside airport to board one. Keep your valuables tight when you are outside the hotel. Saw a tourist’s valuable being snatched and the quiet elderly man chased after the young thief, to no avail.

Hotel Novo is well located. The staff were friendly and helpful. However, my experience was that it is overpriced for what it is. The building and facilities are tired and showing their age. The 'included' breakfast was ordinary (contrast with my experiences beforehand in Ecuador, and afterwards in Nicaragua). Hotel Novo is located within a sea of overpriced products. I arrived late and had few meal options; I ate at McDonalds around the corner, where I paid nearly AU$20 for a hamburger and drink. I told a Tica, from Libera (CR), next day, of my experiences, and he simply wouldn't belive the prices in 'downtown' San Jose. I will strive to avoid going back to San Jose. I will plan my next trip to fly into Liberia (where we had good lunch next day for a sane [about] AU$7). Overall, for a country with, supposedly, one quarter the 'average' income of Australia, prices in San Jose are dearer than what I pay in Australia. I won't go back!

Hotel Novo is in a great location, very convent for shops and bus stops. The room was big and had good air conditioning and strong WIFI. The staff were very helpful and offered a good traditional breakfast. We found the accommodation difficult to find so would recommend using 'Maps.Me'. Overall a pleasant stay.

We stayed here just to crash for the night before our early departure flight to SJO. I picked this hotel because it is just ~2 walking blocks from the bus station to the airport. It is also walking distance to a street that is lined with shops/restaurants/sodas and no car traffic. Check in was quick. Check out was great too because we left at 3:45am and the receptionist was there (lightly asleep on the couch) to quickly process us out. The room was mostly clean and spacious. I will say a cockroach ran into the room with us but we just saw one. And this is the city. And the price is fantastic.

The hotel is pretty great all around. Great location walking distance to the bus stain that goes to the airport. Breakfast is included and it's delicious. The rooms are clean. Shops and restaurants are close by. The only thing i can think that might put people off is the sound of the street traffic but i don't mind it. I always stay here when I'm leaving Costa Rica

The coolness and the lack of sound in my room, coupled with the relative lack of noise.
