I will definitely book again!
I was in San Jose to attend a conference, and this studio was PERFECT! It was cozy, well thought-out, had everything I needed and a lovely rustic feeling without feeling like I was missing out on anything. I felt very safe leaving my rented car parked on the street and walking to the studio in the backyard. And despite the location being right in the city, the neighbourhood was very quiet.
The location was central, close to Santana Row which is handy for some shopping and especially for a variety of restaurants where I could meet up with friends and colleagues. It was also easy to travel all over the city and beyond by car from here.
The host is very friendly and helpful, and she laid out the "house rules" and "things to do" binder very well, with clear instructions/expectations. She was lovely to chat with, but also provided me with complete privacy. Check in was smooth as can be.
I recommend this space to anyone who's looking for a quiet trip or needs a "home base" that has all the amenities without the big ticket price.
