Been here before and will return again! ##### Janice Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Janice 12 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Unique hotel and friendly staff. The location is convenient and walking distance to restaurants and you can walk co city center…a bit of a walk but very doable. ##### Janice Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kerrilyn 24 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities This place is great - good price and walking distance to the fun strip with lots of restaurants and bars. No complaints and we will be back! ##### Kerrilyn Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### GREGORY 10 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Hot water! The shower could use a new shower head though. It's located in a quiet neighborhood but 15 minutes walk to the National Museum. Great cluster of restaurants in a five minute walk inJardin de Lolita. Nice vintage hotel. Great, quiet sitting area. ##### GREGORY Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 24 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The staff is extremely accommodating and made us feel at home.

They have a lovely breakfast available with coffee and juice. I have food allergies and they very kindly made my breakfast GF. There was more hot water available in the evening for showers than in the morning. ##### Kandice Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### M 28 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Very pleased! Very attentive service. Hotel had character—in a good way! Train did not disturb me at all. It’s a bit worn—a broken tile here, faded blankets…but we were safe and comfortable and enjoyed the neighborhood. The free parking was what sold me on the place. Very pleased, will stay again when in San José. ##### M Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marina 17 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Hotel 1492 It’s a gem in the heart of SJ. Small colonial style hotel, with nice spacious rooms, comfortable mattresses. Walking distance to Central ave, Jade museum, National museum, National theater etc. Behind the corner from Bario Escalante where you can enjoy all types of restaurants and night life. Quiet neighborhood, birds woke us up. Freshly made breakfast served in a nicely decorated dining room. It is best if you want/need to spend few night in the center of SJ. ##### Marina Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Kate 14 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Excellent location, wonderful staff, small rooms but with all that you need. Hotel is very near a noisy railway, so bring earplugs! My biggest problem was a snoring neighbour who was so loud he could be heard from three rooms away. His poor wife... ##### Kate Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### LILIANA 18 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Cute super vintage place. There is a small police station on same street so you feel extra safe. Dining is walking distance and many options. Room smelled old and bedding sheets looked old so did the furniture. Hot water in shower worked for a few seconds then turned cold. It wasn’t horrible but if your looking for something other than a quick night stay probably not your place. You also have to be ok with the creepy vintage stuff lol. ##### LILIANA Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Tomer 11 Sept 2023 Good location, friendly staff. Unfortunately it was very noisy. Couldn’t sleep the whole night. The door bell kept buzzing and people were loud after midnight. Reception didn’t do nothing about it. ##### Tomer Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Ronald 16 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities My wife and I stayed there for five nights in a standard room in the back next to the kitchen. The hotel is old but very clean and attractively decorated. At the back of the hotel there is a garden and kitchen with a microwave and kettle for the guests to use. The front desk was attentive. It was generally quiet except for a couple of mornings at 6:00 AM. The only negatives were the extremely weak internet (being at the back of the hotel), the small rooms and the very large legs of the wooden bed frame which I kept hitting with my knee. But the positives outweigh the negatives and we would return. ##### Ronald Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Qinglin 7 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I like this property because of its location, boutique, quiet and reasonable price. It is a large house and felt more like a home than a hotel. The small garden breakfast area was nice. The staffs were all kind, smiling and helpful. The airport pickup service took a lot of worry out for my late evening arrival with a price similar to a taxi. Uber is not legal in San Jose, therefore airport pickup is troublesome. I used Uber at other times without problem. The location of the hotel is excellent with walking distance to tourist spots in downtown. The neighborhood is upper-middle class and felt safe. They have different sized rooms according to your needs. I found out later that Hillary Clinton stayed there in 2005\. The wife of the owner was a painter. She gave Hillary a flower painting. I would recommend it. ##### Qinglin Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard 12 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Internet was fine, room was nice.

Its a good place to stay if you want to be near the airport but don't want to pay a lot of money in a hotel for a night, but the staff does not talk to each other i checked in with a gentleman in the afternoon (which took forvever because he said he had errands to run) confirmed my car service for the airport and in the morning a new gentleman was at the desk and when i tried to confirm my car he had no idea what i was talking about. ##### Cecilia Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gary 23 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I always stay here when I’m in the area ##### Gary Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Janni 30 Nov 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities a small hotel with rooms, poor amenities, you get what you pay for. ##### Janni Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Juan 11 Jan 2025 Liked: Amenities Great place great people I loved it ##### Juan Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ashley 23 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great place, super accommodating. ##### Ashley Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Thomas 28 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice place ##### Thomas Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Kate 11 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great location for city centre and local restaurants, bars and coffee shops.
