Bad service. Restaurant guys were amazing though
Horrible service from front desk. Upon my claim, requested the manager presence and was told he was not there. Found out it was a lie, but his intervention was as bad as the two grumpy and unprofessional ladies.

Great overnight stay.
Stayed at this hotel to be within reasonable driving distance to the airport. The staff are very helpful and nice. It’s about a 35 min drive to the airport. Breakfast buffet was excellent. Room is spacious and comfortable. I would stay here again.

Full of charm!
Studio Hotel is full of unique charm. The art in the hotel alone is worth the stay. The staff is friendly, the breakfast buffet is great, it’s easy to access, has plenty of parking, and the area around it has plenty of walkable restaurants & stores.

Concern of safety gone unexplained!
Everything was great until last day...someone had a keycard and opened our door at 4:30 am ...we yelled ..they shut door and ran!...I got up went to door opened it and whoever was gone...i told desk to check cameras...we went ate breakfast and then checked out and asked what you see?. They said they made a note of it...they acted like it was not worth worrying about!...something didn't seem right..there reaction was like they didnt believe us or was covering up for someone...anyway how hard is it to look at a security camera in the hour of time between when i told them to when we checked out!....ive stayed this place more than a dozen times...im not sure im going back again now.

Excellent value.
A real jem. Art is absolutely amazing. Rooms were very comfortable. Clean and great beds. Meals were overpriced but very good. Breakfast was ok but lacking variety. I'd recommend this hotel any day. Will stay there again.

Great place to stay in Santa Ana
Whenever we are in the San Jose area, we stay at Studio Hotel Boutique. The artwork throughout the hotel is amazing, the rooms are clean and well maintained. The breakfast buffet is plentiful but if you want to order a la carte (extra charge), there are several options. The staff are always friendly and helpful.

Good, not great like before.
Hotel was much better before. Breakfast is still great. Beds are double, not queen size. No microwave or mini-fridge in room. They have a little coffee maker, but they charge you for the capsules and you have to go to the front desk to buy them. Never heard of that.
