Honestly one of the best places I've been able to stay. Gail is quiet but available as she works from home. Her little cottage is a welcome break from reality that is in a very central location in the San Jose area. We were able to go down to Santa Cruz, visit a few state parks, and catch a few tourist traps easily during our few days here. The only thing better than the cottage would be her cute little super host pup! No complaints and only praise from us and we look forward to visiting again soon.
