Dear JorgeFirstly we would like to thank you for choosing our Barceló San José hotel for your holidays, however we would like to take this opportunity to clarify certain aspects of your review as a simple matter of exactness of the information reported. On all the extranets where you can make a reservation for our hotel, it is indicated that the jacuzzi is in the gym area, there is no hot tub in the out door area, also, if guests need more towels they can request them at reception by phone.Once again, thank you for your visit and constructive criticism, we hope to have the opportunity to regain your confidence on a future occasion.Kind regardsCarlos RuizDirector
