Loved my stay here. Only stayed one night but I appreciated the fridge and microwave in the rooms. Staff at the front desk was also very kind and helpful.
The room was clean and felt bigger than usual hotel rooms. Bathroom was clean. And the owner was a great man, very helpful and had a wonderful energy. Helped me with all my questions and we had stimulating conversation! Would definitely stay again!
Edward at the front desk was extremely helpful and friendly.The rooms are basic, but everything was very clean.And everything worked.
It's a very convenient location to the airport
Excellent place to stay in San Jose .Eduardo is very helpful. Easy access to public transportation. Would recommend to my friend and might stay there again next time when we travel to San Jose.
We checked in around 10 pm and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We were able to park right in front of our room. The tiny motel soap was the only thing that I would have changed. Great value and close to the freeway to get us back to our trip with no problem.
clean. Based on price, this the was a fine place to stay. Just basic, clean, and safe accommodation. Courteous staff, owned by father and son. Good location close to airport.
I arrived for 2 days and decided to extend for another 2 days. I love the location which provides access to groceries and restaurants but also transit nearby, with both VTA buses and Caltrain, it’s a wonderful property, with comfortable rooms which are well maintained.
Friendly staff and clean, remodeled and quaint rooms. Parking was a breeze. The inn is conveniently located with many restaurants, shopping and entertainment nearby.
