I had a great time in San Jose. The apartment is amazing. It’s nicely decorated, very clean, has everything you need and more and the fridge is fully stocked. And Edward is the best, being friendly and responding quickly.
The area is beautiful and quiet. I was there in spring break so my view might be a bit skewed.
Downtown is too far to walk, but an Uber takes you there in under 15min. I cycled a few times downtown using a Ford GoBike. You can take a bike from one station (5min walk from the apartment) and ride it to another station and leave it there.
