Nicely decorated room in a great neighborhood of San José! Erika is a nice host.

Leuk ingerichte kamer in een toffe wijk van San José! Erika is een fijne host.

This is such an exquisite home, every detail is thoughtfully curated and I felt as though our bedroom was an extension of the home's artistic space and the neighborhood's energy. Cozy, clean, peaceful, and I loved the hammock in the garden.

I am very happy to have "met" this corner of art and hospitality. I really appreciated the style of the house, the hospitality and silence... I slept like a baby. Thanks to Erika and Gabriel, two hosts who exude art, and you can see it in every choice of objects, colors, and sensations. Thank you for creating a magical place. I will definitely return.

Felicissima di aver "incontrato" questo angolo d'arte ed ospitalitá. ho apprezzato molto lo stile della casa, l'accoglienza e silenzio.. ho dormito come una bimba. grazie a Erika e Gabriel due afitrioni che trasudano arte  e si vede in ogni scelta di oggetti colori sensazioni. grazie per aver creato un luogo magico. tornerò sicuramente

Cozy room in a great location in San José. The neighborhood is quiet and still has many restaurants nearby. Erika and her roommates are very nice, friendly hosts.

Gemütliches Zimmer in toller Lage in San José. Das Quartier ist ruhig und hat trotzdem viele Restaurants in der Nähe. Erika und ihre Mitbewohner sind sehr nette, freundliche Gastgeber.

Lovely quiet annex in a great area- lots of delicious cafes and restaurants. A great spot to start or end your Costa Rica trip.

Very nice accommodation in Erika's garden, we recommend it!!

Logement très agréable dans le jardin d’Erika, on recommande !!

The room is as described, in a quiet area, with restaurants. I was able to walk to the city entirely from the accommodation. Erika and her friend helped me organize the rest of the trip. Thank you 🙏

La chambre est conforme à la description, dans un quartier calme, avec des restaurants. J’ai pu visiter la ville entièrement à pied depuis le logement. Erika et son ami m’ont aidé à m’organiser pour la suite du voyage. Merci 🙏

Erika is a really amazing host! Our flight didn’t arrive until so late and she really went above and beyond to accommodate that as well as recommend so many amazing places to check out in San Jose. The space is so beautiful and cozy and it feels like a really positive and creative space to get to rest in. The gallery she curates is also incredible and really made for such an inspiring and nice start to our trip. We are very grateful to have had the opportunity to stay here. Miigwetch Erika!

Great area, lovely accommodation. I felt very comfortable and Erika greeted me warmly

Tolle Gegend, schöne Unterkunft. Ich hab mich sehr wohl gefühlt und Erika mich herzlich begrüßt

Such a lovely place to stay! The hosts were extremely kind and always willing to help, plus their dog was just the sweetest girl ever. The location is beautiful and pretty quiet for how close it is to attractions and restaurants. 11/10!

I only had one night with Erika and slept very well in the comfortable bed. The patio is a green oasis, I could relax there in the morning with a coffee. Erika was very eager to help me with organizational matters. Thank you!

Ich hatte nur eine Übernachtung bei Erika und habe in dem komfortabelen Bett sehr gut geschlafen. Der Patio ist eine grüne Oase , ich konnte dort morgens entspannt einen Kaffee trinken. Erika war sehr bemüht, mir bei organisatorischen Dingen zu helfen. Danke!

Very nice place, everything clean and as described! We will be happy to come back😊

Sehr schöne Unterkunft, alles sauber und wie beschrieben! Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder😊

Place was great! Would definitely stay again if I'm in the area. Erika and her partner are very friendly.

The place is even nicer than it looks in the photos. Erika and her roommates are very friendly and gave us great tips for the area.  The eat-in kitchen is very cozy, the garden is charming and all in all a beautiful place that is kept very clean and tidy.

Die Unterkunft ist noch schöner, als sie auf den Fotos aussieht. Erika und ihre Mitbewohner sind sehr freundlich und haben uns tolle Tips für die Umgebung gegeben.  Die Wohnküche ist sehr gemütlich, der Garten ist bezaubernd und alles in allem ein wunderschöner Ort, der sehr sauber und ordentlich gehalten wird.

Amazing accommodation, it is in the right area to visit restaurants in Barrio Escalante. Ericka is very helpful and has the best recommendations for a very helpful stay. I highly recommend it 100/100

Increíble alojamiento, está en la zona indicada para conocer restaurantes en Barrio Escalante. Ericka es muy atenta y tiene las mejores recomendaciones para tener una estadía muy provechosa. Lo super recomiendo 100/100

Erica is a very hospitable, friendly and helpful person, she also provided us with useful information about our travel itinerary in Costa Rica. We hope to be back. Thank you

Erica è una persona molto ospitale, cordiale e disponibile, ci ha fornito utili informazioni anche sul nostro percorso di viaggio in Costa Rica. Speriamo di tornare. Grazie

Only stayed here for a night coming back from Puntarenas and headed out to the airport the next morning. With that said, I did enjoy the one night at Erika's. She came out to meet me when I messaged, told me where I could park, showed me how to get in and out, and did a quick tour of the space. Everyone else at the artist's refuge was also nice. Room and half bath were clean and comfortable. I enjoyed the art around. I took one shower in the shared bathroom and the drain was very slow to drain, but that's my only complaint. Neighborhood was quiet and Erika gave great local recommendations for food. Also, she has a cute dog! This is a good place to stay short-term for a solo traveller.

Perfect space close to a lot of facilities as good restaurantes and market nearby. Erika was kind and helped us with everything. I was travelling with my father and he had an injury. Erika helped us with first aid. So glad we've found this place.

Erika has a beautiful home with a very special energy. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to stay and experience the amazing creative energy that surrounds her home and gallery space. Even though you're in the city, the little courtyard makes it feel like you've escaped into a tranquil sanctuary. So close to everything and definitely the best neighborhood in San Jose, no comparison!

Erika’s home and space is so beautiful! I wish I had planned to stay here more than one night. The room is really cozy, charming and has a lot of natural light. I would definitely book next time I’m in San Jose.

it was the best place to spend my last night at in Costa Rica. not only was it very beautiful and peaceful, even secludedly seeming, but also because I was so lucky to be able and stay a few hours longer since no guest arrived in the same day and I could really enjoy my last hours in San José. Erika and her partner recommended a great local designer market that luckily was happening on that day and Erika was so nice to send something I had forgotten at the apartment via Uber to the airport to me. thank you!

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The room was beautiful, and I particularly loved the stunning courtyard – it's so peaceful and serene, offering a perfect retreat after a day of exploring. The interior design has a great sense of style that made the space feel warm and inviting. The architecture of the property was also a highlight – it's clear that a lot of thought has gone into creating a space that feels warm and open. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed. The hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming, always ready to help with any questions or recommendations. The location was perfect too – with easy access to lovely restaurants within walking distance. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful, stylish, and conveniently located stay!

Great Airbnb in a quiet environment as well as in a great, safe neighborhood. Stylishly furnished & we enjoyed it very much!

Tolles Airbnb in ruhiger Umgebung sowie in einem tollen, sicheren Viertel. Stilvoll eingerichtet & wir haben es sehr genossen!

Perfect stay for a few days in San Jose. We really liked it at Erika's and it was all perfect

perfekter Aufenthalt für ein paar Tage in San Jose. Uns hat es bei Erika sehr gefallen und es war alles perfekt

Erika’s place was amazing! The room   was spacious, clean and private. Perhaps the best aspect of staying at Erika’s was her kind hospitality and also the wonderful art & artists who are part of her home. I happened to arrive while there was an art exposition, where I connected with talented artists in multiple mediums. Fabulous people, a fun neighborhood and a kind host!

I had a short but wonderful stay at Erika’s cool, comfortable place. I hope to return soon!

A very nice room located in an ideal area of San José. We were able to walk to the National Museum of San José, and the neighborhood has many restaurants and supermarkets. We were able to park on the street without any problems. The room is comfortable and very quiet in the backyard. We can only recommend this place if you pass through San Jose.

Une chambre très agréable située dans un quartier idéal de San José. Nous avons pu nous rendre à pied au Musée National de San José, et le quartier dispose de nombreux restaurants et supermarchés. Nous avons pu nous garer sans problème dans la rue. La chambre est confortable et bien au calme dans l'arrière cour. Nous ne pouvons que vous conseiller ce logement si vous passez par San Jose.

We were here for the second time and would definitely do it again. It's just a beautiful place to stay.

Wir waren zum zweiten Mal hier und würden es auf jeden Fall wieder tun. Es ist einfach eine wunderschöne Unterkunft.

I loved Erika‘s home and the garden, Barrio Escalante is a great neighbourhood, there are lots of restaurants close by but the house is on a quiet street.

Erika is a very welcoming person, attentive to our needs, the accommodation is in a good location, not far from this city, I recommend this property

Erika est une personne très accueillante, a notre écoute, le logement est bien situé, pas loin de cette ville, je recommande cette adresse

I stayed here twice, would stay here again in a heartbeat! :)

a beautiful and creative place in a lively neighbourhood!

A beautiful space and stay with these accommodating and understanding hosts, highly recommend! :)

I arrived exhausted after a long flight in a haven of peace and creativity. Erika is adorable and has ahead of my organizational questions (yes it takes an adapter for the outlets). The annex is a small cocoon open to the garden. In the house, there is not a square centimeter that does not attract attention, surprise, emotion, reflection, question or wishlist.

Je suis arrivée épuisée après un long vol dans un havre de paix et de créativité. Erika est adorable et a devancé mes questions d’organisation (oui il faut un adaptateur pour les prises). L’annexe est un petit cocon ouvert sur le jardin. Dans la maison, il n’y a pas un centimètre carré qui ne suscite pas attention, surprise, émotion, réflexion, question ou coup de cœur.

We loved staying at Erika’s. It was perfect for what we needed. Ideal location, safe walking distance to restaurants and everything we needed, close to downtown. The aesthetic was curated so intentionally, you can tell she put thought into every detail. Great art. Felt good to see this side of Costa Rica, the urban arts scene. Erika & her partner were welcoming and warm. The room was private enough. We enjoyed the view of the garden, was grounding and peaceful after long flights. I would stay here again. Thanks!

I absolutely loved this spot. It was the perfect place to spend a couple of days in San Jose. A very cute and safe neighbourhood with a ton of restaurants! It was also only about a 15-20 min walk into downtown. I loved the decor and the art in the space and the host was very friendly and had amazing recommendations. I would 100% stay here again next time I come to SJ!

Thank you Erika for a great start to my Costa Rica adventure! 🇨🇷 A great lovely place to explore San Jose. The home is in the middle of the Escalante area, which is filled with great cafes and bars. Easy to walk into the city center. Erika took me at the local market and was a really sweet and welcoming host with the sweetest dog 🐶 I can only recommend this place if you are going to San José.

Tak Erika for en rigtig god start på mit Costa Rica eventyr! 🇨🇷 Et fantastisk dejligt sted til at udforske San Jose. Boligen er midt i Escalante området, som er fyldt med gode caféer og barer. Nemt at gå ind til centrum. Erika tog mig med på det lokale marked og var en rigtig sød og imødekommende vært med den sødeste hund 🐶 Jeg kan kun anbefale det her sted, hvis du skal til San José.

We were received in a very friendly manner. Erika is extremely helpful and helped us with a problem quickly and easily. Located in a quiet area. There are great restaurants and shopping facilities nearby. We will definitely book here again, for our next stop in San José.

Wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen. Erika ist äußerst hilfsbereit und hat uns bei einem Problem schnell und unkompliziert geholfen. Die Unterkunft liegt in einer ruhigen Gegend. Umliegend finden sich tolle Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Wir werden auf jeden Fall, für unsern nächsten Stopp in San José, wieder hier buchen.

Great location and wonderful atmosphere full of creativity.

Erika's apartment is in the heart of the Escalante Quarter, a stone's throw from downtown. The neighborhood is very lively, full of bars and restaurants to spend the evening quietly. The room is located in the back of the main house and enjoys a small well-maintained garden that guarantees tranquility and privacy. Erika is a very welcoming host, a source of knowledge about the city and the country in general. He told us a lot about Costa Rica and made us discover places we would hardly have been able to discover on our own. Talking to her about her city was a huge pleasure. I highly recommend everyone to stay at their home to face this trip with an extra gear!

L’appartamento di Erika si trova nel cuore del Barrio Escalante, a due passi dal downtown. Il quartiere è molto animato, pieno di bar e ristoranti in cui passare tranquillamente la serata. La camera si trova nel retro della casa principale e gode di un piccolo giardino ben tenuto che garantisce tranquillità e riservatezza. Erika è un host molto accogliente, fonte di conoscenza sulla città e sul paese in generale. Ci ha parlato molto del Costa Rica e ci ha fatto scoprire luoghi che difficilmente saremmo stati in grado di scoprire da soli. Parlare con lei per scoprire la sua città è stato un enorme piacere. Consiglio vivamente a tutti dí soggiornare a casa sua per affrontare questo viaggio con una marcia in più!

The room was very cozy, overlooking the house’s inner garden in a stimulating artistic environment. The host was friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this artistic immersion.

Very beautiful and peaceful home. Amazing with all the local tips and recommendation. Erika was a very friendly and welcoming host and helpful with local practicalities. Definitely recommend!

Great place, both the room and the garden. Erika was relaxed and easy to communicate with. I strongly suggest her place for a stay in San Jose!

Great place for creative inspiration-  finished most of my writing project while staying here - felt very inspired!

Erika was a very welcoming host. The space is absolutely beautiful and would definitely recommend due to the home's location. Lots of great restaurants and park nearby!

Erika was a great host to us when we stayed for the night in San Jose. She was super communicative and made it incredibly easy to access our room. We even purchased some of the local art that was hanging all throughout the home and attached annex. Would recommend this stay for anyone looking for an affordable, quiet, low-key place to sleep and park your stuff. There are several cafes and restaurants all within walking distance but if you want to check out some of the historical sites I'd suggest taking Ubers to those.

I had a wonderful time staying at Erika‘s place. It feels like a peaceful oasis in the city. The apartment is beautifully decorated, reflecting Erika's artistic talent, and was very clean and cozy. Erika and her partner Gabriel were incredibly attentive, always ensuring I was comfortable, and Erika responded quickly to any questions. Their dog was also very cute and friendly, even tough she didn’t know me. The neighborhood of Barrio Escalante has great restaurants and felt safe, even as a solo traveler.  I highly recommend Erika’s Airbnb!

Pretty annex as part of an art space. Full of works from local artists. Really great recommendations to see art in the City (from pre-Columbian to contemporary). Erika is friendly too

Enjoyed my time at Erika’s place. The location was great. I was able to walk everywhere and there were many delicious options for food amd grocery.

Beloved you will love your time here. Erika and her partner are full of life, joy, brilliance, and creativity. The space itself is cozy and I slept like a baby in the bed, also really enjoyed the hammock in the garden. There are humming birds. The art on the wall is witty and beautiful, you should buy some! I’m excited to return and visit the myriad of wonderful pop ups Erika curates in the space. She also fed me and her food was delicious, offered me endless recommendations and she has good taste so everything was amazing. A friendly creative space great for writers and artist. You will feel cozy and at home. Great place to land in Costa Rica and all the best places in San Jose are walking distance. I also love her dog! Put your money here and enjoy yourself.

Erika’s spot is such a great location! Walkable to the university, downtown area, bars and restaurants, literally everything you need. Erika is super kind, responsive, flexible and helpful. She also has such a sweet dog. With the green backyard set up, feels like you are not in the city. Lovely stay here!

Very beautiful and comfortable accommodation in one of the most beautiful areas of San José!

Très beau et confortable logement dans l'un des plus beau quartier de San José !

Erika was always quick to respond to any questions.

Erika hat immer schnell auf Fragen reagiert.

Erika's place is great. It was a little difficult to locate the entrance of the place but she came right out and helped us get settled in. Her little pamphlet of recommendations was really useful. The room was clean and comfortable, with nice artwork around. It was close to the city centre but far enough away to not be noisy. There were lots of restaurants and shops around to explore. Will definitely recommend!

Super cozy room with views of the countryside despite being in the middle of the city and in the best location in San José, hosts are very nice and helpful! We will be happy to come back :)

Super gemütliches Zimmer mit Ausblick ins Grüne trotz mitten in der Stadt und in bester Lage in San José, Gastgeber sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit! Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder :)

We stayed at Erika’s beautifully designed, cozy spot in Barrio Escalante for a night during a quick layover to explore the neighborhood. While it's a bit of a drive from the airport (about 1.5 hours in rush hour), we loved the chance to walk around and experience the area. Erika was very friendly, greeted us on arrival and reached out in advance to ensure a smooth stay. The place is tucked at the back of the property, past a lovely garden, offering a quiet retreat. Plus, we enjoyed the company of Dasa, the sweet resident dog!

It was really a pleasure to stay with Erika. Easy and super nice communication, very good location, charming decor, quality amenities. I recommend ++

C’était vraiment un plaisir de séjourner chez Erika. Communication facile et super sympa, très bon emplacement, décoration charmante, équipements de qualité. Je recommande ++

Erika's space was unique and inviting.  The area was quiet, the bed was comfortable and we enjoyed a restful night sleep.  It was great chatting with Erika and discussing the unique details of her well-curated space.

Erika was a helpful and responsive host who let us come and go through her home with ease. It was a 25 minute drive from the airport without traffic. Parking is easy on the street. The room was private and felt very safe, and we loved the design of her home which is full of from various artists. She provided restaurant/cafe recommendations and there were many walkable spots!

We only got to enjoy this gem for 1 night as we had an early shuttle out of san jose. Will definitely be back and stay at Erika's -- for artists or creatives especially, it is a truly lovely space. Muchas gracias!!

Our stay was great! The space is beautiful, peaceful, and close to lots of cafes and restaurants! Would highly recommend!

It's a super cute room in a house full of art and Erika is a very friendly person. The only point that could be strengthened according to my point of view would be to make a full private bathroom (shower is needed in the room and you have to enter the house). Highly recommended!

Es una habitación super linda en una casa llena de arte y Erika es una persona muy amable. El único punto que se podría fortalecer según mi punto de vista sería realizar un baño privado completo (en la habitación hace falta la ducha y se tiene que entrar en casa). Muy recomendado!

A little artistic haven in a quaint neighbourhood. Erika’s place is even more wonderful than described. After a 24 hour journey (multiple flights and layovers), it was the perfect place to start my Costa Rican adventure. My flight was super delayed meaning I didn’t arrive until midnight, but Erika was understanding and responsive. Erika was super hospitable and even hosted a wonderful dinner with a few of her friends on my final night. The gallery space is wonderfully curated and the shared / communal spaces were clean and welcoming. If you like dogs, you’ll be in for a treat as Erika’s dog is the sweetest, cuddliest little thing! There’s a supermarket a short walk away and an array of cafes and restaurants. It’s a perfect spot to stay for a short while to start or end your Costa Rican adventure 💛✨ As a solo female traveller, I felt more than safe! Only downside was that the room itself doesn’t lock properly.

A very charming apartment and welcoming hosts. Great location in a lively area of San José. Thank you for hosting us.

Un appartement très charmant et des hôtes accueillants. Emplacement idéal dans un quartier animé de San José. Merci pour l’accueil.

This is such a unique listing that I would recommend to anyone staying in the city. Their little courtyard feels like a natural sanctuary, and the property is decorated with such vibrant art. Erika is very helpful, responsive and knowledgable about the city, which was super helpful for us as it was our first time there. I would absolutely consider coming back to stay at Erika's property.

We felt very welcome and comfortable. Bars, supermarket and restaurants are nearby or you just enjoy the little garden with the hammock.

It was really nice staying here it is such a nice neighbourhood! And ofcourse the bnb was really cosy and comfortable.

The room is immersed in an amazing atmosphere. You can feel Erika's passion for art and sharing her space with likeminded people!

It was really great at Erika's house. We would be warmly welcomed, could use everything in the kitchen and still had a separate private area. We enjoyed the hammock in the garden, the quiet area and proximity to the center.

Es war wirklich toll im Erikas Haus. Wir würden herzlich empfangen, konnten alles verwenden in der Küche und hatten trotzdem einen abgetrennten privaten Bereich. Die hängematte im Garten, die ruhige Gegend und Nähe zum Zentrum haben wir sehr genossen.

Very nice backyard nook in Barrio Escalante, perfect for a short stay! We stayed at Erika’s for one night, and wished it would’ve been more - clean, pretty, artsy space, comfy bed, place looks like the pictures, we saw hummingbirds in the garden, and Erika & her partner were super friendly hosts! Also, the vicinity (Barrio Escalante) boasts a lot of great cafés, restaurants etc., walking around there in the morning was a treat! Definitely highly recommended for a Costa Rica trip kick-off!

Very artsy - quiet - comfortable- a refugium in the city with character and style. Nice garden , lots of artwork. Very nice hosts . 100% recommendation !!!

Erika's place is a true hidden gem! Her beautifully designed home and gallery exude creativity, coziness, and a tranquil oasis in the city. While I had not realised the shower is located in the main house, this minor inconvenience pales in comparison to the overall experience. Her fantastic recommendations, combined with the fun, safe, and peaceful area, made my visit truly unforgettable. Meeting Erika was undoubtedly a highlight, and her kind and welcoming nature made me feel right at home. I will be sure to stay again soon.

Erika's house is very well located and allows you to go out quietly day and night. If you like the party you can visit many places just minutes away. Sleeps quietly. If you are carrying a vehicle, you must pay the site in front of the house in hours between 7 AM and 7 PM

La casa de Erika está muy bien ubicada y permite salir tranquilamente de día y de noche. Si te gusta la fiesta puedes visitar muchos lugares a pocos minutos. Se duerme tranquilo. Si llevas vehículo, debes pagar el sitio frente a la casa en horario entre 7 AM y 7 PM

The place is BEAUTIFUL!! Erika is very responsive and accommodating. She provided lots of recommendations in terms of places to eat and see and they were 100% worth it! I would totally recommend staying here!

We had a great stay here, really recommend it for anyone traveling to San Jose! 🤗

We loved the place very much - Erika is super nice, we liked her tips & we immediately felt at home. When we are back in San José we will definitely return! Area is great too!

Wir haben die Unterkunft sehr geliebt - Erika ist supernett, ihre Tipps haben uns gut gefallen & wir haben uns sofort Zuhause gefühlt. Wenn wir wieder in San José sind kommen wir auf jeden Fall wieder! Die Gegend ist auch toll!

Great location, interesting set-up, communicative host!

Erika is an excellent host! She was very helpful and proactive with our check-in. Our room was nice and private and had an info card with things to do in the area - we especially enjoyed the back courtyard. If you're an artist/creative type you might especially enjoy the shared living/kitchen space - when we were there we met some cool artists working away on their upcoming projects. Thanks Erika!

I always enjoy my stays at Erika's house.

Great little hide away in a cool part of town!

A very nice space, tidy, clean and full of art. Great location. Hosts are friendly and respectful people. I recommend not leaving the vehicle outside during the evenings as the area is lonely and can sometimes become unsafe. Thanks a lot. Have a great time in my stay.

Un espacio muy lindo, ordenado, limpio y lleno de arte. Buena ubicación. Los hosts son personas amables y respetuosas. Recomiendo no dejar el el vehiculo afuera durante las noches, ya que la zona es solitaria y en algunas ocasiones puede tornarse insegura. Muchas gracias, la pase muy bien en mi estadía.

Erika is an awesome host and the space was exceptional and unique. The property is rich in both artistic expression and comfort. She offered great recommendations and it's located in a premier location. I'd highly recommend this gem.

Thanks, Michael!! It was lovely meeting you, all the best!!!

Here for the second time, now at the end of my trip. Can say for sure now the coziest, most creative and warm place I have been. Hope to see you again. All the best!

I will be coming to the Amsterdam in April! I want to see your shop!!

Loved our stay here! The space was beautiful, clean, and just what we needed for our brief stay in San Jose. Loved all the art in the room as well as Erika’s house. The neighborhood was also very cool and had lots to do within walking distance!

I quickly felt at home at Erika's place in her beautiful and artistic home. She was very sweet and accommodating. I stayed in a cozy room in the garden and there were good cafes and restaurants in the area. I would recommend it!

Jeg følte mig hurtigt godt tilpas hjemme hos Erika i hendes smukke og kunstneriske hjem. Hun var meget sød og imødekommende. Jeg boede i et hyggeligt værelse i haven og der var gode caféer og restauranter i området. Jeg vil anbefalde det!

The room is really nicely decorated, clean and the bed is very cozy. I was also allowed to use Erika's beautiful kitchen and felt completely welcome.

Das Zimmer ist wirklich schön eingerichtet, sauber und das Bett ist sehr gemütlich. Außerdem durfte ich Erikas wunderschöne Küche mitbenutzen und habe mich rundum willkommen gefühlt.

Erika’s main home feels very alive. The sliding doors on each let in a beautiful breeze, rich art lines the walls, and friendly faces from Erika’s personal or art world pop in occasionally to say hello. The annex where guest stay is just a few steps away through the garden, providing a private retreat when needed. The location is hard to beat. In my one week stay I only used a car a handful of times. Dozens of restaurants/cafes are just a few minutes away while downtown is still an enjoyable 15-20 min walk. Would recommend!

Stylishly furnished stay in a nice location in San José, recommended!

Stijlvol ingericht verblijf op mooie locatie in San José, aanrader!

Easy to feel at home, with enough privacy. Beautiful place and kind folks! And the best neighborhood you can find.

Brilliant location, friendly hosts and walkable to everything we wanted to do. Basically a perfect stay to kick off our honeymoon! We’d definitely recommend. Mil gracias 🙏🏼

Nice stay, in a cozy environment. Perfect to start for a further trip in CR. Beautiful art available. Erika was not there herself, but we were perfectly welcomed by friends of hers. Upon arrival, a delicious beer was drunk and we received a plate of homemade cheviche. Nice people, nice atmosphere, what else do you want?

Fijn verblijf, in een gezellige omgeving. Perfect om te starten voor een verdere reis in CR. Mooie kunst aanwezig. Erika was er zelf niet, maar wij werden perfect ontvangen door vriendinnen van haar. Bij aankomst een heerlijk biertje gedronken en we kregen een bordje zelfgemaakte cheviche. Fijne mensen, fijne sfeer, wat wil je nog meer.

Beautiful spot in Barrio Escalante. The annex was so comfortable and beautiful and featured gorgeous artworks. the garden was peaceful and we saw many hummingbirds. Erica was really helpful in accommodating us when our flight was delayed and giving great recommendations for where to eat and go out. highly recommend if in San Jose.

We thought Erika's place was a treat. Would definitely return.

A really beautiful and quite escape in a neighbourhood full of restaurants, cafes and arts. We really liked our stop here. Erika made us feel welcome and we had everything we needed

Erika's place is a relaxing place to be and her positive energy fills the place. A homely place to stay, comfy bed, great shower, nice outlook on to the garden...quiet place but so close to the great restaurants of Barrio Escalante if you walk a couple of blocks. I will be back sooner than I think.

A beautiful place filled with art at every step, if you love art, you have to visit this place. Erika will tell you about every item and recommend the best exhibits in the area and beyond. In the evenings, you can talk to her about art and travel. Beautiful place and gallery behind the wall ;) recommend !!!

Piękne miejsce wypełnione sztuką na każdym kroku, jeśli kochasz sztukę to musisz odwiedzić to miejsce. Erika opowie Ci z zaciekawieniem o każdym przedmiocie oraz poleci najlepsze wystawy w okolicy i nie tylko. Wieczorami możesz z nią porozmawiać o sztuce oraz podróżach. Przepiękne miejsce oraz galeria za ścianą ;) polecam !!!
