Overall fine but in need of a refresh
Overall stay was fine, location is pretty good close to the central area. The best thing was the friendly and helpful staff. The room had a safe which was great, but generally the room and bathroom was very dated, definitely in need of a refresh
The hotel is excellent and the staff really helpful. Most of them speak english with ease.
I had to sort a few things out before the trip and they also responded to the messaging on the expedia app very quickly.
We had a spacious room and the whole hotel had a feeling of airiness and light with wide, tall hallways.
It's a converted 1929 mansion and has a great traditional feel, but also modern conveniences.
Just be aware that the hotel is about a 900m walk from the centre of the city and it's in a safe area. There are, I think 2, restaurants close by and the one in the hotel is good too.
We have a very comfortable stay with the Dunn Inn on our two day stop over in San Jose. We loved the history and the area was easy walking to downtown. Front desk staff was wonderful!
Lovely staff and rooms, clean and comfortable. Front desk helped us book a taxi to the airport. Unfortunately a bit loud outside, but otherwise it's a reasonably priced stay in San Jose.
I had a delightful stay in early December. Although Air Canada was late arriving, the hotel taxi was there to meet me— and 2 gentlemen ere out on the sidewalk to welcome me. Fabian, desk manager, was hospitable and most helpful. Strangely the food servers were very distant. & cool. Breakfasts were delicious. English pub menu was dull— Spanish lunch menu was a hit with locals. Talented chefs.
