Lovely view out over San Jose and more!

This is a perfect small hotel, which we overnighted at between flights returning to USA. The pool was warm enough to enjoy, there were lots of places to use outdoor chairs to enjoy the gardens and the birdwatching was excellent right there. Wonderful to have restaurant right here.

This is a great property located about 20 minutes away from the airport. It has an amazing view of the capital. Although it is a small hotel, my family and I enjoyed it. It is quiet, safe and the staff is professional, polite and attentive. It is not crowded! The hotel offers free transportation from/to the airport. If you are checking out early, make sure to let the receptionist know, so you can enjoy a sack breafast to eat on your way to the airport. The only reason I'm not giving the excellent rating is due to the unstable internet in my room and no AC. However the tempature in the room was not that hot.

Very nice property overall, the room was a little humid and damp due ti all the rain. No A/C in the room to help control the dampness would recommend a portable dehumidifier. The sofa bed was really bad. Thankfully it was just our kids that slept on it but it had server spring issues (picture the movie money pit :))
