Reviews and Ratings
I recently stayed at this hotel after hearing so many good things, but my experience wasn't quite what I expected. While the rooms were spacious and there was a safe feeling about the area, I found several things that left me disappointed. The breakfast had great options, and I appreciated the art-filled environment, but the coffee situation really needs an upgrade, and there were issues with the towels. Overall, it has potential, but it just didn't fully deliver during my stay.
This beautiful boutique hotel is just a short trip from the airport and is filled with stunning art that adds to its charm. The rooms are well-appointed and provide great comfort during your stay. I found the breakfast to be delightful with plenty of options, and the staff went out of their way to make our experience memorable. However, I do wish check-in was a bit quicker, as it took a little longer than expected. Overall, this hotel offers tremendous value for its price.
I had a great experience at this hotel, which was clean, modern, and offered a warm welcome upon arrival. The breakfast exceeded my expectations, and the friendly atmosphere made my stay enjoyable. However, the pool was smaller than I anticipated, and the location requires some time to navigate the traffic to reach San Jose or the airport.
I had a pleasant stay at this unique hotel that doubles as an art gallery. The rooms were spacious and clean, and the welcome was warm upon arrival. However, the hotel is a bit far from downtown and the dining options are limited, which might not be ideal for longer stays. The rooftop pool is a nice touch, but it was a bit chilly when I visited.
I had an overall great experience at this hotel, with amazing staff and spacious, clean rooms. The location was convenient, close to restaurants and a bus stop, making it easy to explore. However, the shuttle service to the airport was not as quick or straightforward as advertised, which was a letdown. Despite this hiccup, I enjoyed my stay and appreciated the artistic ambiance throughout the hotel.
