Overall this was a nice property. The condo was clean, beautiful and had an amazing view. The Wi-Fi did not work very well, which made it very challenging to work while I was there.

Clean and quiet

The staff was great, very helpful at check in and throughout our stay. The unit we stayed in was nice and clean. Plenty of room and enjoyed the windows being able to open to get fresh air. There are definitely some short comings with the construction of the unit, the bathroom didn't have any towel bars (you could see they existed once upon a time) and no bath mat for the shower, which was very messy. It was nice that it had a full kitchen with a coffee pot and coffee in the unit.

Nice apartment in very cool neighborhood

It was a good stay! A geat unit with a nice view and rooftop lounge. A few minutes walk to awesome restaurants, coffee shops and a little park. Also close to the crafts festival which I believe occurs on Saturdays. I would stay here again.

I enjoyed the property very much! The staff was very friendly and accommodating. There were some issues with my first room, and they immediately switched me to another room without hesitation. There were plenty of places to walk to, including a grocery store. However the sidewalks weren't in the best condition and there were major inclines. Overall, I would stay there again!

I am very disappointed with my stay. I specifically chose this hotel because of the gym and Jacuzzi, but both were unusable. On our first night, we were stuck for two hours because the parking gate would not open — quite frustrating for such a short 2-night stay in San José. During this incident, the contact number provided was unreachable on WhatsApp, and we only received a call once the parking finally opened. The next morning, I woke up before 5 a.m. to follow my training routine — strength training followed by some relaxation in the Jacuzzi with a view. Unfortunately, the weights in the gym were locked, and I was told they are only for residents of the apartment building, not hotel guests. This is misleading and frustrating, as the gym was one of the main reasons I booked here. I then wanted to use the Jacuzzi, but it was filthy. The staff decided to empty the water, which meant that in the end, I could not use it at all before leaving for the airport. In the end, I couldn’t do my workout, nor enjoy the Jacuzzi, which were supposed to be the highlights of the hotel. Between the parking problems, the unreachable contact, the unusable gym, and the dirty Jacuzzi, this was a very disappointing stay.

We had no complaints during our stay. The room was spacious and all amenities(cookware, plates, salt, towels, shampoo, body soap, conditioner, fridge and freezer, clothes iron, hangers, & others) were available for use. Aircondition was great and strong enough for the entire space. TV was smart which inluded entertainment apps but TV could be updated. Everything was clean and modern. Although daily housekeeping was not available(which was stated prior to booking), everything we needed was attended right away by messaging them through whatsapp. 24/7 front desk was really helpful. Although it was not right outside the frontdoor, a lot of restaurants and shops were walkable. Uber/rideshare was always accessible even odd times such as 5am. We waited around 1-4 minutes for rideshares. All in all, I recommend this place for what it has to offer and for its price. I would definitely stay here again.
