Hotel Capital in San Jose, Costa Rica -

Hey Everyone! On this visit to San Jose we decided to try and do it on the cheap and see what hotels and hostels were BEST for backpackers and people traveling Costa Rica on a budget, while still getting a bang for the buck.

We stayed 2 nights at Hotel Capital. Hotel Capital boasts the best location in all of San Jose, were they right? Is it all about location, location, location, and what about the orthopedic beds… would they be ideal for a good nights sleep or would it be like sleeping on a piece of cardboard? The Hotel Capital was only $28./ night for the both of us… was it worth it, would we recommend Hotel Capital to our friends and family? Check out this video and see if Hotel Capital is all that and more.
