Modern, clean, and convenient. The rooms are nice, but the downstairs cafe is the real winner. Great coffee and delicious breakfast options (the acai bowls are a must-try!). Would definitely stay here again.

The room was so cute! My boyfriend and I only stayed for one night, check in was so smooth. Contactless. Parking was a little expensive next to the hotel. The hotel was so clean, no smoke smell.

Lots of homeless people on streets in that area… but once you’re in the building it feels safe. Great and interesting rooms and decor… each room is different and each time I’ve stayed I’ve had a whole different experience. I like it and gooseberries (the restaurant downstairs.) is amazing!

I don’t say this often, but staying here genuinely elevated my stay in Hillcrest. It was wondering to be within walking distance to numerous restaurants and clubs. The facility felt safe and well maintained. Despite This being my first self-checkin experience, the hotel team made everything flawless. Thank you for the wonderful stay! I hope to be back soon.

I recently stayed at the Abpopa Hotel and it truly exceeded my expectations! From the moment I walked in, the offsite staff were welcoming and efficient. My room was absolutely spotless — clean, modern, and surprisingly spacious, with plenty of room to relax and unwind after a full day of exploring. The location is fantastic. Everything you could want is within easy walking distance: grocery stores, fun entertainment options, and a great variety of restaurants. It made getting around effortless and added so much convenience to my stay. The views from the hotel were stunning — I could have sat by the window for hours just soaking it all in. Nights were wonderfully quiet, giving me the peaceful sleep I was hoping for. Parking was available, which is always a bonus, though it did feel a bit crowded and came with a higher price tag than I expected. That was really the only minor drawback during an otherwise excellent visit. Overall, Abpopa Hotel delivered a comfortable, convenient, and memorable stay. I’d happily return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great base in the area!

It's a great location. Plenty of bars and restaurants you can walk to. It's a quirky space with excellent views. Lots of windows. It can get a little hot in the afternoon. Just shut some of the blinds and the AC will catch up. The bed was comfy. The stairs up to the bed took a little time to get use to.

This was my first time staying here, and I really loved it. Cannot beat the location. Room was large, very clean. I loved all the glass, The view was astounding. The only thing that could have been better was if they had a closet pole or dresser drawers. There was nowhere to put my clothes. Would definitely stay here again.
