The house is located in San Jose in a quiet neighborhood, very close to Costco and other shopping centers. The house was recently renovated. Everything is new and modern. The house is perfectly equipped with all major amenities, including new refrigerator, oven, dishwasher, microwave, coffee machine, toaster, laundry machine and a washer. The back yard is also very nice including a sitting area.
The communication with the host is excellent.
Nevertheless, there are few shortcomings that made our staying less than perfect:
1. Water pressure in the showers was weak.
2. There is no proper 'welcome' procedure, explaining to us what and where is everything in the house. We found the dishwasher capsules in the laundry room, and we generally missed such proper introduction upon arrival.
3. Cleaning supplies were provided, but not in line with our staying duration (4 nights). We were short in dishwasher capsules and no laundry softener was provided. It was kinda frustrating to deal with going to Safeway and buying these stuff in the middle of our vacation.
4. WiFi was unstable. We notified the host upon checkout and he scheduled a technician to check the modem or whatever.
