I traveled to San José for three nights on business. I looked for a good hotel near where I would be holding my meetings. Among the options, I found this hotel, which seemed fine. When I stayed there, I found a hotel with remodeled rooms, simple but new, as were the mattresses, towels, etc. The service was very friendly, and the breakfast was delicious.

We stayed in two different rooms. One was massive and the junior suite was a bit tight. The condition of the room were good.

Enjoyed our stay This is a great local hotel. Very clean, nicely decorated, and the staff are helpful and courteous. The restaurant is beautiful and the food was delicious. We liked this hotel much more than the American chain hotels we have stayed at in San Jose.

Really disappointing stay at this hotel in a Deluxe Double Room. While the property was suitably clean, the rooms and amenities were pretty basic, poorly designed or broken — I had been staying a hostels in San Jose that were 1/4 of the price of this place which were in a better condition. Bathroom was a wetroom with the shower the same level as the floor, so the water sprayed everywhere. Plug sockets were falling out of the wall and room felt like a cell. The worst part was the staff. Rude at check-in, restaurant and management. I had made the mistake of booking this double room for one person on ******* — it should have been for 2 but there was no difference in price on *******, so I messaged the hotel in advance if they could amend. They tried to charge me extra when the second guest eventually arrived. I had a really frustrating conversation with the manager who was dressed in a hoodie and who couldn’t care less about the price on ******* or providing customer service.

Quite clean and functional. Good supply of hot water in the shower. Staff was friendly and professional, and quite accommodating as I had an early morning flight so they ordered for me a bag breakfast to eat at checkout.
