fantastic stay - highly recommend.
quiet, but close to everything
I stayed Sun-Tue for a conference at Microsoft-building 1.
Hospitality:
amazing!
Briefly met Katja and one of her sons
lots of local maps
nice magazines for reading
Room:
private entrance
very clean
spacious with windows - nice ceiling height
private bath/shower - super spacious - not sure if you can use the jacuzzy/bath
convenient nespresso, nut/power bars, hot chocolate, toblerone, and nice bottle of San Pellegrino sparkling mineral water.
microwave
good for warming up foods - no time to cook,
so I did not ask about using the kitchen to prep.
lots of space in the refrigerator in the garage
comfy bed, futon, and lots of pillows
lots of hangers and closet space
full length mirror
ironing board and heavy iron
Location:
super close to Castro St - tons of restaurants, bars, shops,...
CVS-pharamacy is a nice leisure walk away
commute to Microsoft-building1 was around 10-20min using lyft
if you leave before 7:30am lyft prices should be ok, afterwards you can have surge pricing during morning rush hour.
San Jose airport - close by, but street and airport traffic can add delays.
no traffic - 20min
heavy traffic - 60min+
