Nice hotel - when you enter and walk around it gives you the feel that you’re in a good sort of upscale hotel, that is till you actually start staying there. Laundry system was good.

Excellent art work on every wall! Staff was amazing and helpful, especially the tour guide lady that helped us book all our tours, most of them last minute.

“Recommendable as it is close to the airport”
- • Leisure trip

We booked a superior double room which I suppose was more spacy than the average double room but it was on the ground floor and the window showed to the parking lot. It was ok for the one night we stayed there but we actually expected a better location of the superior room with more privacy. If it had been on the first floor it would have already been fine.
We had a nice stay at Studio Hotel. The rooms are comfortable and the staff was very friendly. We chose it because it is close to San José Airport, so if you have to go there early, it is good to stay in Santa Ana. We took the hotel's Airport Shuttle in the morning. We definitely recommend to take it althought it is more expensive than a normal taxi, but the driver was excellent, as he knew how to get around the traffic and he was also very friendly and told us a lot of interesting things about Costa Rica on our last day! Breakfast was also very good and you can get an early bird, as the buffet already opens at 6 am.
