Loved the hotel! It was very cute and trendy, and great location. There is absolutely no parking in the city of San Jose, so this spot is perfect to walk to the main attractions. We did have a car, and they had parking, so it was nice for us to just leave our car there and drive it to the airport when needed. It is about a 30-45 minute drive to SJO. The hotel can be a little difficult to find. The restaurant in the hotel was fantastic! The staff was also very conscious of COVID restrictions, and they had plenty of hand washing stations and sanitizer gel available for guests. Only negative was that the bed was not very comfortable.

It's a great spot in the city of San Jose! The staff is prompt and attentive. BREAKFAST is from 6AM to 10AM. I had to leave earlier than 6am a few times and they made a small baggy with a sandwich, fruit juice, and a piece of fruit for me in the morning. It was really cool of them to do that for me. They also made me coffee! They have FREE PARKING for those who are renting their own car. They were great about COVID protocols and I felt safe and clean in this hotel. It's located by many cool restaurants.
