This was our first Airbnb stay……. And we are truly glad we chose this accommodation. Kurt is a great guy, and made the entire rental seamless and easy. The apartment met our needs perfectly for our months stay in San Jose. The cottage, as we called it, was thought out perfectly. Open, airy, in a great neighborhood. Cooking our own meals was great, and the dishwasher did the clean up. We enjoyed watching squirrels, birds, and a neighborhood cat as they visited the back yard. A very walkable area, and we enjoyed the nearby walking trails and river. The neighborhood is suburban, and quiet. Shopping and restaurants are plentiful……. And nearby. We definitely recommend staying with Kurt…… and the cottage!
