Eduardo and Mrs. Betty were great hosts! This was truly an excellent experience that I will treasure the rest of my life! I will be back!

Very Accommodating and most gracious hosts. Beautiful gardens and a wonderful coffee plantation. Really a paradise. Very knowledgeable and a good communicator. Most helpful!

This place is so centrally located but more importantly it’s safe. Eduardo and Betty are the kindest hosts and make your stay so enjoyable. They are very accommodating. Make sure you have Betty cook at least one of your meals. You will not be disappointed.

Eduardo and Betty are awesome hosts, friendly and caring. Make sure you ask them about their coffee and breakfast and try Betty’s homemade bread.

Eduardo and Betty were wonderful hosts - they treated us as invited guests, not paying customers. They graciously provided everything we needed including transportation to shopping and back to the airport area. The grounds are beautiful and Eduardo proudly showed us his gardens and flower/coffee farm. The coffee was fantastic and it was so much fun hearing about the growing and processing. Eduardo was very generous in sharing his coffee with us! And Betty is a fantastic cook!

Quaint place, gracious host, most excellent coffee. Only issue is that I found it strange to have a toilet fairly close to the bed, separated only by a curtain. There is however a full bathroom downstairs.

Gosen is a great place in Barva Heredia to relax, with mountain weather, natural beauty, a wonderful garden, and peace. It is wonderful to wake up to the sound of the birds in the area, and a 360 degree view in the master bedroom. We enjoyed our stay there, especially my daughter who had her own private suite. The wonderful and friendly hosts Betty and Eduardo make you feel at home. Be sure to try Betty's delicious food.

This place is heaven on earth and the owners are genuinely nice and caring people. The sleeping quarters are upstairs and it has both a small shower and a small bathroom. The downstairs has an additional bathroom and also the common area with a kitchen and a dining room table. The two are connected with an outdoor staircase. The kitchen has everything you need if you are staying for more than one night: pots and pans, dishes, microwave, fridge, and cooking oil. If you are only staying 1 night, I would recommend having Beti, the owner’s wife, cook something for you. It is inexpensive and crazy delicious! The nights are quiet and we slept with the windows and doors open to let in the breeze. No problem with insects. Hot water was great. Things to know as a traveler: The kitchen has everything you need to cook with except butter. There is a grocery store about 15 minutes away and Eduardo will take you if you don’t have a car. I might have missed it but I didn’t see a coffee pot. I didn’t ask the owner about it because his wife made us the best coffee I’d ever had. The bathrooms have soap but no shampoo or conditioner. Not a big deal; just bring your own! No hair dryer but my hair dried super fast even without it. The water is safe to drink and delicious. The wifi is excellent! Eduardo speaks pretty good English but if you do run into difficulties, just pull up Google Translate. Eduardo does charge a small amount to drive his guests places. He accepts colones, dollars, and also uses Zelle. Also available to purchase is fresh roasted coffee from his farm and paintings that his wife made. I bought 2! This is an amazing place and we are already talking about going back next year. Eduardo and Beti embody the Costa Rican spirit of Pura Vida! I wish more people were like them. Heck, I wish I was more like them! Enjoy your visit and tell them Sara and Rick said hello!

Ed and Betty are two of the kindest people you will meet. They were thoughtful and helpful - driving us to the grocery store, making us breakfast. The house is lovely. The gardens are great. Ed tried to rustle up our own personal sloth for the tree...but his powers did not extend that far! I recommend this place strongly

Eduardo's property is a large beautiful land several thousand feet abouve San Jose. Very special with its own small coffee finca. The room i stayed in was comfortable with an excellent kind sized bed, and floor to ceiling windows on all four sides. Eduardo himself is a superb host --- cooking me breakfast on his dime, offering his shade-grown coffee in addition to his professionalism and respectful of one's privacy. Good value, worth the drive from the airport, and highly recommended!
