Sinus infection
Developed a serious sinus infection after staying here. I Ask that the room A/C filter be changed and was informed that they didn’t have any filters available. Breakfast Buffet is $25 per person and not very good. Some of the fruit was spoiled. Do yourself a favor and go to a local soda. Customer service and house keeping are great and the only positive marks at this hotel. The Sheraton down the road is far superior for the price.

We’ve stayed at this property a couple times. It feels like it lacks a little bit of warm energy. It’s definitely got all the amenities and for that we appreciate it.

AC Escazu Hotel, high end but good value.
Very comfortable hotel, spacious and well appointed rooms and lobby. Great location, many high end shops close by. Fairly convenient to San Jose and the airport. Great display of vintage sports cars!

Paid thru Expedia. They asked for a credit card for incidentals. Gave them my Discover. Then later i went to the bar, tried to charge to the room, it was declined, but i used that same Discover to pay the bar bill. I asked the desk and they said, the card i gave for incidentals was only for room service. I checked out, they gave no receipt because i prepaid with Expedia. Then later that day, they charged $369 to that same Discover even thou i had already prepaid with Expedia. I drove back to the hotel and the man apoligized and blamed it on a colleague. Claimed he credited my card. Meanwhile that amount hold against my credit for 10 days

El hotel es lindo, nuevo, comodo. Nos resulto complicado acceder al estacionamiento, un tanto tipo laberinto. Esta en una zona muy linda, tiene negocios ahi mismo y un lindo restaurante en la puerta y esta a 10 minutos de auto de un shopping muy lindo.
