We had a great time at Avalani Inn! Host was very helpful/informative and was available for questions before, during, and at the end of our stay (we stayed for a week and did not have many questions). The location was convenient for us to meet with friends and family in South San Jose, CA. The house was spacious for 3 people and a dog. Neighbors were a bit noisy at night but it may have been due to 4th of July festivities and not something that can be easily controlled - just something to keep in mind, especially when bringing a dog. After July 4th weekend, it was pretty quiet.
We would definitely consider staying at Avalani Inn again for our next trip to Northern Cal!
