I had a nice, useful description describing all of this, but Expedia's trash AI scanning for rule violations kept rejecting it for no actual discernable reason, so you get this useless blurb instead... since it's required... Good place; will stay again.

Very Good for the price. Quiet area but walking distance to restaurants. A little cold on February night and no heater, but that is the norm in San Jose.

This was out second stay and it continues to be a great value. My only concern was that I was unable to get a warm shower which I really needed. Other that that, the staff is very helpful and the rooms are nice and a great value for the money.

Deux expériences dans l'hÎtel. PremiÚre sans soucis. Au deuxiÚme, l'hébergement réservé sur Expedia ne correspondait pas à celui qui nous a ete donné (un lit au lieux de deux). L'hÎte n'a rien voulu entendre... Dommage car les hébergements étaient bien sinon.
