The staff were friendly and helpful overall. Liked the text line, which made interactions with the hotel very easy. Disappointing food compared to what the hotel used to have. In particular, the lack of coffee maker in the room and limited healthy food options was disappointing.

We really enjoyed Hotel San Jose. The property is very retro with a cool vibe. It feels very secluded but is right in the middle of South Congress. There are tons of restaurants and shops with walking distance. There was plenty of on site parking without the valet hassle. We had a pool day and there was a bar service there. The let us bring our dog and even had a bed and food and water bowls waiting in the room for her! Would love to stay again!
