Quick and easy location. Room was clean simple and all I needed for an overnight stay before an early am connecting flight. Very helpful and friendly owners who really looked after me and were very kind shuttling me to and from the airport. Highly recommend.

We booked this Studio for our last day before flying back. We really liked it here. It’s the perfect spot for the first and last night in San Jose. Is super close to the airport but also quite calm. The owners where just super nice and friendly. We even got some fresh fruits! We can just recommend it for everyone!

We loved staying at Casa del Cafe! The house has tons of charme and the property is incredible. We highly recommend the breakfast - it's delicious and you can choose if you would like to eat in the dining room of the farm house or outside in the garden. They also provide yoga mats to use in the garden.

Great stop for landing into the airport in the evening. Christopher picked us up at the airport, speaks excellent English and was very helpful with any questions we had for him. Clean, hot shower and he shuttled us back to the airport the next morning to pick up our rental car.
