What should I consider when booking a 1-star hotel in San José?
When booking a 1-star hotel in San José, think about what level of comfort and service you'll need. These properties offer a functional place to stay but often don't include certain extras. For example, no daily housekeeping may mean you'll need to pack some spare towels. While you'll have a comfortable bed and storage space, there may not be extras like hair dryers, desk space, and in-room Wi-Fi, either. You may also want to consider packing travel-sized toiletries, as these aren't always provided. The front desk usually operates during business hours rather than 24/7, so make sure you check the check-in times beforehand.
