The space was exactly as advertised. There was no obvious air freshener usage nor any old perfume smell lingering in the bedrooms, and the house was distinctively clean. The back patio is an incredibly peaceful hangout spot, and the inclusion of a work-specific area with an adjustable desk was a plus. Location is great - within walking distance to my favorite coffee spot (Voyager Coffee) and just a couple blocks from Japantown (check out old man Kaita's restaurant for the best sushi in town - and the specials are to die for).
Melonee truly is a super host. She was kind enough to accommodate my early arrival and I was able to check in prior to the listed time. Plus, she stocked the fridge and pantry with drinks and snacks! I would highly recommend this listing for anyone passing through San Jose.
