Convenient Parking

The free parking at The Podium Boutique Hotel was a huge plus for me! It’s on a first-come, first-served basis, but I was fortunate to find a spot without any hassle. Having free parking available made my traveling experience a lot more convenient.

Cozy and Comfortable

The bedroom was incredibly cozy. The beds and pillows were nice, making it easy to drift off to sleep. What I particularly loved was waking up to the beautiful foggy views outside my window; it was such a serene start to my day!

I had a mixed experience at this boutique hotel. On one hand, the rooms were clean and modern, and I enjoyed the complimentary breakfast. However, I had trouble sleeping due to the noise from the nearby highway. The staff was very accommodating, but the location is not ideal for those wanting to explore the city without a taxi.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and while it was new and clean, the noise from Marcos Highway made it challenging to get a good night's sleep. The staff was friendly and accommodating, and I enjoyed the free breakfast, but I would recommend asking for a back room to avoid the noise. The location was a bit far from the city center, which meant taxi fares added up, but the overall experience had its highlights and drawbacks.
