Overall, this was a good little place. The things I loved:
- Price was incredible. I didn't see anything else comparable in this price range in San Jose.
- Location is great. Close to the freeway, lots of stores and restaurants.
- There is private parking in the back. It's great to come home and not have to worry about finding street parking.
- Cool selection of books on the shelf.
- It was quiet. The unit is attached to a house, but I rarely heard anyone.
Things I didn't love:
- It didn't feel clean to me. I'm not a clean freak so I plopped down on the bed without giving it a second thought. Shortly after, I felt a long hair tickling my arm (I have very short hair). Looked down and there was quite a bit of hair on the comforter, nightstand, floor. Then I was working and an ant marched across my laptop lol. Through my stay I ran into quite a few ants. I left them alone, but there is a can of Raid by the door in case they freak you out.
- There is a security light right outside the door that is bright and is on all night. I kept waking up thinking it was morning. The light is great for security, not great if you're a light sleeper.
- Can't put toilet paper in the toilet. If you're like me, bring some extra trash bags so that you can take out the trash after you go dookie.
Overall, the place had some quirks, but I'd stay here again. The price and location are incredible, just make sure you set your expectations accordingly.
