"Friendly staff. Good recommendations for local areas. Really cute and unique property. Would stay again for sure. Excellent breakfast. Parking was tight, but owner was helpful in getting the car in. Security for the room was a potential issue as you could put your arm through the gate to unlock it at anytime; risk is mitigated by no one being allowed into the property that isn't a guest. Still, I'd put valuables in the safe. Overall was a great stay. Highly recommended and would be glad to...

Hotel Presidente

Hotel Presidente

10/10 Excellent
"Great location for a short stay in San Jose. Near shopping and can walk almost everywhere in town. Rooms were clean and people were friendly. Breakfast buffet was ok not great. We ordered pancakes but got completely forgotten until after waited a long time and we asked and they were like oh you want to order pancakes? No one was apologetic at all; just order now why complain ? Still, good place to stay even with ‘I’m always right’ breakfast staffs…"
