The staff and owner of Casa Lima are friendly and accommodating. They even loaned us the owner's GPS when we rented a car for a day trip. Between the attentive staff and the two cats, one parrot, capucin monkey and daring squirrel, we always felt at home and entertained. Good location, close to good restaurants and a big shopping center within walking distance.

I would recommend Casa Lima. beutiful tropical courtyard gets you in the mood of Costa Rica. Good food, service and people. close to all, especially if you are connecting to Nature Air departures to other parts of the country as it near the Pavas airport.
4.0 out of 5A fantastic experience and warm atmosphere!
March 31, 2013
My experience in Casa Lima was very good. It was my first time being outside the US for an over night extended stay of over a week. The room I had was nice and comfortable and very clean. The shower was a new experience to get used to, but the shower is typical in Costa Rica and was just fine once you learn how to use it. What really made this an amazing experience was the live animals and a rainforest type atmosphere which was only superceded by the owner and staff. They became friends more than the owner and "hired help". Except for staying at the homes of friends I would choose Casa Lima as a home away from home again. Thank you Casa Lima for a great introduction to Costa Rica.

March 24, 2013
The rooms are a bit old & there is no place to put anything, but they are clean & comfortable. The interior of the Casa Lima is hard to describe, you have to see it to appreciate it, so much hard work goes into maintaining such a tropical paradise in the middle of the city. Nelson. the owner/manager is very hospitable, informative, & helpful. The housekeeping ladies do an excellent job & are friendly & will be patient with you if you want to practice your Spanish. Danny also makes the effort to make your stay enjoyable. They have an excellent restaurant with authentic Cuban food & the breakfast will get your day started just fine! And they can provide reliable tours.

I booked into Casablanca Lima based on the photos that showed a lush, green central courtyard surrounded by clean and well appointed rooms at a very reasonable rate, and that's exactly what I found on my arrival there. What I hadn't anticipated was the open friendliness of the staff, who were available aalnd eager to do their part in seeing to it that I enjoyed my stay not only while at Casa Lima, but also while I was out and about in San Jose and the rest of the country. Daniel met me at the front desk and soon proved himself to possess a wealth of knowledge about places to see, both in the city and the country at large. More importantly, he never treated me as a friend as did Nelson the proprietor. On the night of my second day at Casa Lima, I joined Danny and Nelson in the kitchen and we cooked a meal of fresh caught dorado together, then sat down and ate together with a few other guests, laughing and talking as if we were old friends, not people who had met only the day before. This feeling of easy comradery apparently was felt by the other guests, as I left there with a pocketful of business cards and exhortations to call when I was in their area. There are two friendly cats that wander the grounds, a very friendly white -faced monkey named Don Timon, a green macaw who will let you scratch her head with a minimum of encouragement, and budgies and a pond full of goldfish that is fed by a charming waterfall, and a wild squirrel that comes down every morning fornfruit and tontaunt the cats.
5 out of 5My stay at Casa Lima, wonderful experience!
February 23, 2013
My stay at Casa Lima was wonderful! I have stayed there twice and they have the best food and atmosphere! Nelson the owner will do everything and anything you need to make your stay enjoyable. He goes out of his way to help you and then some. He even went to the market with me, the bank you name it, he will do it. Everyone who works there are so nice and so kind. It really shows to. If you are looking for a five star hotel,then this is not the place for you, it is neat, clean and it was good enough for me. I was there having Dental Work at Prisma Dental. It is very close and easy to get to. When Nelson was not busy which is rare he would run me over there. It is cozy and a family run business. Just do not get to close to Kiko the Monkey. He is adorable and like a human. I wanted to take his picture he he decided to throw his arm out the cage at me. It startled me and I went into the fish pond with my camera as well. It broke my camera submerging under water. When Nelson came to get me out, I looked up and Kiko was laughing and jumping up and down that I could not be mad, pain from falling, but hey what is a vacation without some action right? Enjoy your stay, so much fun there with the guests in the Lobby as well hanging around in the evenings.

My husband, son and I stayed at Casa Lima for one week. A lovely tropical courtyard and very comfortable accommodations. The staff helped tremendously with finding tours, drivers. They knew where to go in city, and what tours were available for excursions to other places. Also, all the folks who worked there were friendly, available and so welcoming. It was like being with friends. Very upbeat; relaxing.
