I traveled to San Jose to visit friends and I chose Luong's place because of its proximity to them. Luong was an amazing welcoming host! I received a welcome call and prompt responses to all of my messages. He was very open to offering suggestions, but I did not take advantage of his knowledge because I was visiting locals. The apartment was very easy to find and is conveniently located near the freeway. This being said, there is constant traffic noise, but even as a light sleeper it did not keep me up. You will also hear noise from the neighbors. The inside of the apartment was very clean and was stocked with all the amenities we needed. We especially took advantage of the full kitchen, smart TV, and large space heater.
