Hannelore and her husband are supremely considerate and accommodating hosts. The apartment makes efficient use of space and is very well appointed; Hannelore has thought of nearly everything her guests might need in advance. She was also kind enough to greet me with a charming little welcome basket and a few breakfast staples to help me settle in. The kitchen overlooks a garden of flowers, green grass and fruit trees - it truly is an idyllic little island in the heart of San Jose. Access to a number of highways is not far if you'll be driving, and I was able to find free parking within a one-block radius for every night of a month-long stay. I would not hesitate to book with Hannelore again, and I wish them all the best.
