Jose, the front desk agent was great. He was very informative with all/any questions we had. The location was perfect for my purpose. The hotel was very clean along with the rooms. The only slight negative is that it can be noisy. All in all, i will be back.

This is a very basic accommodation in central San Jose. The room we had had no windows, there is no coffee maker or other amenities. Breakfast was included in their lobby cafe and is made to order. The big downside is that there is no nearby parking. You have to go to the 6th St El Colloso parking lot which is a 10 minute walk and it's about $30 to park overnight. The location is pretty central, right next to the pedestrian walks with shopping and dining.

I had a wonderful stay!
Im really glad I booked this stay. I was there almost a week and all the staff are very accomodating and friendly. The free brekfast was great. My only complaint is the walls are a little thin so you can hear everything in the hallway but that's a common thing with hotels like this so it's to be expected I guess. I love that the location is literally a fee feet from city center and I loved being able to walk everywhere.

Good rooms and excellent facilities. Great service. Good breakfast. Location is good in terms of being close to main tourist attractions in San Jose. Unfortunately, the area has become very unsafe, dirty and unpleasant overall. Wouldn’t recommend this location, especially for families with children.
