Upgraded room. I wasn't sure if they were honest when they said Expedia didn't pay room taxes so we had to pay that. I didn't see any line items for that on Expedia receipt. Been wanting to reach out to you to see if that was true.

A real pretty place!! It’s like the White Lotus of Los Cabos. 😂 There is another building down the street with rooms. We booked a junior suite and she tried to put us down the street but I called her on it and she put us in the correct room. They have parking and are close to everything.

We had a wonderful week-long stay. The staff was very helpful and kind. The location is ideal. We felt lucky to be right in the historic district. Amazing restaurants feet away. Others have mentioned noise, but we simply used earplugs on festive nights. We plan to return.

Beautiful Hotel close to all the actuon

Lovely spacious room in the Art District of San Jose del Cabo. Close to shops and great restaurants. The courtyard, pool area and common spaces are beautifully decorated and inviting. The only negative is that the area can be a bit noisy at night as it is near nightlife. Earplugs dd the trick for me but this could be an issue if you are a light sleeper. Everything else was exemplary.

We were a little disappointed. Mostly the room smelt damp, and this irritated my lungs / asthma. Little things missing - no matches to light candles (not one at reception or bar after 10pm to ask for matches).... air conditioning made large grinding / banging noise throughout the night.. curtains didn't pull across railings.... no help with luggage on arrival.... which we needed.... All in all, disappointed with this room / stay. Location is best thing.

This was an amazing find in the perfect location. We were located within an easy walk around the art/history district and wonderful restaurants. We will definitely recommend to others and stay again ourselves.

I was disappointed to learn that my room was not in the main hotel, but was down the street in a separate building. This seemed like a classic bait and switch. The room wasn’t bad, it was just not what I was expecting when I booked it.

The hotel is very unique and the garden area and pool area is beautiful. Located near the center of town is great. It allowed us easy access to shopping and dining. The room need some updating, the couch was tired and the bathroom was musty and old. A little tlc in these areas would make it great. The bed was very comfortable.

This was our second time here, 16 years apart & the hotel still holds its exquisite beauty. I love the feels when staying here. Heart of the Art District Area. Elegant rooms with character and everything you need to have a peaceful comfortable sleep & stay. Beautiful pool & gardens Mexican music plays in background. The restaurant on site has an amazing breakfast lunch happy hour & dinner. Staff is very friendly & helpful. We will be back again sooner than later. Thank you 😊
