Good location
Nice place. Good location. Plenty of parking. Friendly host at the front desk. Remodeled room, but the floor squeaks. Mini soap and shampoo, we’re ok, but not worth writing about. Quiet even though it’s next to a busy street.

Overnight stay
The hotel was clean. Front desk was friendly. Room was large and comfortable. It's very close to the airport. My only negative is the sound from the room above. Fortunately, they didn't stay up long because the sounds of people walking around was noisier than I would have liked. However, I would still stay there again if I were in the area.

Clean, friendly, and homing.
It was an owner operated motel. The property was maintained like home, clean and orderly. The hospitality received from the receptionist (owner) made me felt like an old friend. Will go back in my next trip.

I really like the walkability and all the nearby dining options. There is a really nice coffee shop across the street and a good ramen place. This is a clean, quiet and very reasonably priced property - looking forward to coming back!

The gentleman at the front desk was very kind. The place was clean and a good value for stay. Just one criticism is the mattress was terrible. We couldn’t sleep well. It was really hard.

The owner of the property is nice, very kind, friendly, and personable. He is great with kids. A year ago, he gave a bag of M&Ms to my 4 year old nephew for free. When I come to San Jose, this is my go to spot because of the owner.
