This hotel exceeded my expectations. I thought I’d get a convenient nights sleep before traveling out of SJO. Instead I got a touch of the kind and happy spirit of Costa Rica. The dinner at their little Italian restaurant was fantastic (beef lasagna & fresh strawberry juice). The sound of the fountain by the pool was a perfect way to create a calm atmosphere, which got interrupted by planes every 20 minutes, but the calming noise bought it back. And the staff is so friendly.

Be prepared for the noise of planes. It’s only 3 minutes from the airport, so it wasn’t a surprise. Ear plugs did the trick for me.

I stayed at this hotel the night I arrived in Costa Rica and again when I left Costa Rica. The hotel was great, but I learned on the first stay to make sure I did not get a room on the highway side on the way back. It was really noisy! They did accommodate me on my trip back with a room on the other side and I had no problems. Restaurant and breakfast waiter were wonderful. No pickup from the airport but there are taxis everywhere and it's about a 5-minute trip. They had a shuttle for the trip back to the airport every hour. Probably the best price hotel in the area. Overall good experience. Will use again.

I wish the restaurant was open a little later but I do not know if it is cost effective for the hotel. Maybe have a snack area for late arrivals?

It's very close to the airport, and the shuttle service is super useful. If it's not particularly busy I think they can help you get it at a custom time rather than just on the hour as advertised. Wifi is good too. Italian restaurant is fine, nothing special but good to have. Overall it was perfect for what we wanted - a quick stay before an early flight the following day.

The windows are quite thin given how close you are to the airport; they're not very thick so it can be a bit noisy (earplugs solves everything) and they rattled a lot when a plane would fly by. AC was a bit noisy and dripped everywhere during the night.

Handy hotel very close to the airport (5 min by taxi). Staff was kind, smooth check-in even at night. The room was big, comfortable bed. Clean room, very basic but still pleasant. They have a small yard with small pool, relax area. The breakfast was very good! Just remember that you are close to the airport so there is noise.

Just remember that you are close to the airport so there is noise! Some planes take off at night so you will hear it. I woke up just a few times, so it’s not impossible.

The hotel was extremely clean, the staff friendly, I didn't try the restaurant - I left too early for breakfast and went out as there are many places close by for dinner. The free airport transfer was also handy It is probably one of the closest hotels to the airport, so expect to hear the larger planes taking off overhead, fortunately they don't fly all the time but if you're a light sleeper, you will likely be woken by the 120am flight, it is also next to the road so you'll hear the large trucks rattling by

Both stylish and spotless. The staff is obsessive about cleanliness. One housekeeper was sweeping up a few leaves that had fallen overnight, another pulled the couch away from the wall so she could damp mop behind the couch.

On our second visit, we asked for a room overlooking the pool. As a result, the highway traffic noise was considerably less. We love everything about this place. The staff is extremely helpful, kind and friendly. We also fell in love with the family restaurant next door to Hotel Mango. The food was delicious!!!

The room was extremely clean and bigger than I expected. Stayed one night for a very early flight and it was perfect. Nice hot shower and amenities like body wash etc are provided. For someone who is a light sleeper the planes overhead actually didn't bother me. I also stayed during low season so maybe that could be why there weren't as many planes. Good wifi. Staff was very friendly. I think the price for accommodation could be lower, but overall perfect one night stay

Clean, nice environment. Friendly staff. Rooms were great including internet connection and hot water.

It is located conveniently close to the airport, but it is right next to a highway with heavy traffic, the noise from the trucks was pretty loud. They announce a free airport shuttle, but it is only to drop you off at the airport, not to pick you up. They recommend a rate of 3 USD for the taxi from the airport, but the actual cost is 10 USD.

We had flown into San Jose and had an early flight the next morning and also when we departed so Hotel Mango was a great choice for us. It is under 5 minutes to the airport. The hotel is close but behind walls that block out the traffic noise. All of the staff were wonderful and particularly, Sylvia and Rafaela, Both breakfast and dinner were great. Highly recommend if you wish to avoid the congested traffic of San Jose when you are trying to make your flight.

I stayed here before. Beautiful and homey, a few minutes to the airport SJO, Costa Rica. Very friendly staffs/Kevin was so knowledgeable and helpful, kind, friendly. Speaks fluent English. Location is great, clean room, poolside restaurant with Italian menu and pizzas. Love the pretty hotel dog, came to greet. The airport shuttle is awesome. You will get an email after reservation is made. Every corner of the property is so beautiful and cozy. The room is clean. Best staying before and after flights. Walking distance to Danny's restaurant. Hotel offers Breakfast menus option with fruits and drinks. Very good for me. It is what I saw on photos here.
