Bianca and her Team truly went above and beyond expectations with making my stay as perfect as it was. From the warm welcome, to helping me with travel/tour plans, she ensured every step of the process was handled with care. Even took the initiative to help rectify travel hiccups I encountered without me knowing! I was totally blown away by all the gestures beginning to end. The hotel itself is a dream. Cozy and quiet, I had great sleep here. The environment itself was very pretty, well taken care of, picture worthy moments too. I came for the charming hotel, would come back for the amazing staff! I will/would recommend this place to anyone coming to San Jose!!

We need to make an appointment for the hotel's pick-up service. The Ctrip housekeeper will contact the hotel. The hotel said that the guests must call by themselves. The hotel did not provide a mailbox. We called in the past by a recorded call and told the hotel the flight number and time of the pick-up. As a result, there was no response, and we had to take a taxi from the airport to the hotel.

Hotel first stop of my Costa Rica tour in San Jose. Arrived from airport at night, door man helped me sort out the taxi. Got in and was checked in by friendly staff and was given all the particulars to hotel. Front staff always friendly and helpful. My room was on the 1 level floors, interior is all open interior sort of neat to see. Room was clean and had good AC for cooling. Bed was comfy, bathroom good and clean no issues on that. They have a pool on site and a gym as well and change rooms. I went to pool and had a good swim and lounged around later to dry off. They have a downstairs bar if you want drinks there. I had breakfast over two days there, it was buffet but was quite good, much variety fresh fruits, omlettes etc. Location across from a supermarket and near major park. You can access downtown via uber or taxis if needed, or walk.

Breakfast is simple and the style of the American breakfast. There is a parking lot, the room is large and the bed is very comfortable. There are many restaurants around, as well as Chinese restaurants, the taste is huh. Opposite are Wal-Mart and McDonald's, Starbucks. The only downside is that the windows in the room are sealed and there is no ventilation fan in the bathroom. After a long time, I feel that I lack the fresh air and feel bored.

The hotel is on the highway, but the sound is good and quiet. Hotel standards are relatively high, that is, the surrounding is relatively desolate, not in the urban area. There is a shuttle bus to the airport, but there is a class in the morning and afternoon, basically can't catch up, you need to take a taxi, about 20 minutes. There is a famous Multi Plaza nearby, which is a large shopping mall. There is a food court on the top floor. Many eat, have Chinese food, meet a pair of Chinese mother and daughter, recommend shrimp rice, it is really good, it is too big, small I can’t finish it all...

I arrived in Costa Rica and this is where I spent my first two nights as I prepared for an extensive journey through the national parks. This hotel provided a fine room. The building is in the shape of an ”O”, with the pools and dining areas in the middle. There were many different types of birds flying around, the traffic noise was minimal inside the pool area, and I enjoyed relaxing in the pool area. Breakfast was excellent and available to all guests. Dinner was purchased in a smaller bar/dining area with an overhead view of the pool area. I ordered salmon, and it was surprisingly good! This is not a destination hotel, but it was just what I needed, as I got my international bearings. There is a tour desk, in which one may schedule a variety of tours and day trips of San Jose or areas around Costa Rica.

El hotel es normal. No tiene algo especial que le haga destacar sobre otros hoteles en la zona. El desayuno es buffet y buena calidad. Las habitaciones son lo mínimo decente que se podría esperar, tienen diseños viejos y requieren varios retoques y remodelación al igual que la ropa de cama. El trato del personal es normal a bueno. Parqueo es al sol y lluvia, si tienes un vehículo caro y son varios días, no es tu opción.

Clean room with everything working. Internet was very fast. The internet connection had brief hiccups but when it ran 99% of the time it was blazing fast. I downloaded a season of Netflix in minutes. Staff were friendly, breakfast was generous, water was hot, AC was cold. Parking was very secure in a locked courtyard visible from the rooms. This is a basic motel, nothing fancy, but met all of our needs.

4.6/5
Outstanding
GGuest UserThe staff are so attentive and kind and friendly. I don’t have one bad thing to say about them. The maid was top notch. She left our room spotless with extra towels, soap, lotion and waters ever day we were there. The service at the reception desk, restaurant, bar, valet, bellhop etc. were so professional and welcomed us with a smile no matter the time or request. The staff in the restaurant were outstanding. We got to breakfast late our first morning (we thought it ended at 11 but it was 10) and they welcomed us in, left all the food out for us to fix plates, brought us a huge plate of delicious fruit and let us sit until we were ready to leave. Sheila was an absolute delight and welcomed us every morning with a big smile and a kind word. I would absolutely stay here again and would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in the San Jose area. Oh…the view on the mountain side is spectacular!

GGuest UserMy coworker and I stayed here for three nights for a work trip. The property is lush and looks like you are transported a couple hundred years ago but resort is only 35 years old (from Marriott employee Fernando who gives tours of the property). There are two pools and a hot tub surrounded by so much lush vegetation. My initial room was 528 which is a handicap room but was quickly switched to 631 which has a walk-in shower with a glass door. The room had a modern feel with artwork of coffee beans. There was plenty of space at the desk as well as couch area. The breakfast was delicious and the servers were wonderful. Breakfast even starts at 6am, great for work trip. There is also a shuttle that runs on a schedule (see attached photo).

GGuest UserI just came back from a week long trip to Costa Rica and stayed at the Studio Hotel Boutique. Everything about this hotel was wonderful. Outstanding service from the staff, beautiful hotel in a quiet part of Santa Ana, and beautiful art all over the hotel. We felt like we were staying in a museum. The restaurant had great food, and a great breakfast buffet, with a wide variety of choices for everyone. Harold who is in charge of the tours was wonderful. We contacted him before our visit, and he took care of everything for us. We always go with big chain hotels, but the price and the reviews for this hotel encouraged us to take a chance. I’m so glad we did. The price was decent and the hotel was excellent, a real find. I give this hotel 5 stars. I look forward to staying there again, and I recommend this hotel to anyone taking a trip to Costa Rica.

GGuest UserIt may be that the locals are like this, the hotel service attitude is average, and the breakfast service staff is also walking. The room was OK, that is, I encountered a day of water and power outage during the day. It was speechless and there was no compensation. The washing machine dryer is sold together and washes for $10 a time, but the washing is not clean, and the drying is no different from the drying. Will not live again next time.

GGuest UserThis hotel rocks! We stayed here the first night of our trip, and were welcomed by the kind staff and some of the FRESHEST and WARMEST TASTIEST free cookies upon check in. By the end of our stay one of our relatives literally hoarded the cookies, asking for 4-5 per day. The pool was very pretty, and the breakfast was so fancy, aesthetic and tasty! The rooms were nice and cool, very clean, and had a great selection of TV channels. On the last night of our trip, we had initially pre-planned to stay at this one hotel in the forrest, but our party decided to leave because of a number of concerning observations. We were all exhausted as it was the end of our trip, and needed somewhere to stay. Immediately everyone started chanting that they wanted to go back to the DoubleTree. We arrived and everyone sighed a relief, and we went to our warm beds with our cookies!

GGuest UserWe stayed only one night here since we left for La Fortuna right away next morning. For the price, I thought it was a solid stay. The room/shared bathroom was clean and the front desk was friendly. The main pro was how affordable this place was. Wasn't looking for anything fancy, just a place to rest my head.
