Despite being a gold member(qualifying me for room upgrades) and typically receiving room upgrades at other hotels, a lady with glasses at the front desk informed me that I would need to pay for an upgrade, even though rooms were available.

Beautiful old building, could use with some renovations but nothing major. Attention to detail was a little lacking. They usually forget about basic toiletries like hand soap or coffee for the machine, but if you call the front desk they solve it fairly quickly.

Excelente hospederia en San Jose; solamente hubo inconveniente con el estacionamiento donde lo utilizaron para personas que ofrecian dinero por estacionarse en los estacionamientos que serian utilizados por los huespedes y estuvimos sobre horas esperando que saliera alguien para estacionarnos por que Gaviota tenia una actividad en el Hotel y a los huespedes no nos brindaron una alternativa viable para estacionar sino estuvimos en el vehiculo por horas esperando molestos ante esta situacion; y que ninguna persona queria dar la carta ni un ejecutivo del Hotel, ordenaban a los guardias a darnos informacion pero nadie una solucion positiva.
