My stay at Inca Real was far from pleasant. I was deceived by a taxi driver upon arrival and ended up exhausted in a hotel that felt old and gloomy. The room had hair on the sheets, garbage still lingering, and a strong sewage smell wafting from the bathroom.

The hotel is in a good spot, close to tourist attractions and bus terminals, which made it convenient for getting around San Jose. However, that didn't make up for other shortcomings.

My stay at Inca Real was quite disappointing. The room had hair on the bed and rubbish left in the basket, which made me question the cleanliness. The smell in the bathroom was unbearable, and it felt like an outdated space. The only positive was the location which is close to downtown.

My stay at Inca Real had a mix of negatives and some minor positives. The location was convenient, close to the Caribeños bus station and various restaurants, but the overall experience was marred by cleanliness issues and an unpleasant atmosphere. The smell in the room was particularly off-putting, which made it hard to enjoy my stay. 😞
