We had a fabulous experience staying at The Pad! Hal was a wonderful host. We had a bit of trouble finding the place and he was available when I called and super helpful in getting us to the right place.

The Pad was clean and comfortable with a beautiful view and plenty of space for the two of us. The ONLY critique I have of the Pad was the bathroom - it's open with no shower curtain or divider for the shower, so the whole floor was a bit wet for a few hours after each shower. Not a huge deal, though. Otherwise, we loved the funky retro decor and the fresh fruit and pastries Hal had waiting for us was a very thoughtful touch! Hal also had bikes we could borrow which was wonderful - we used them on two full days of our stay to get all around the city.

I would definitely recommend this place to family and friends looking for a great location and a place with a fun vibe, very convenient Fremont location and a great host!
