Comfortable apartment (mix of older + updated elements) in striking distance to many San Jose destinations -- super quick walk to Japantown and just a bit further walk to Downtown San Jose. During our visit I had a business engagement in North San Jose, and then my daughter and I also visited Willow Glen, The Alameda, Santana Row, Santa Clara, Stanford + a couple of specific stops (Municipal Rose Garden, Falafel's Drive In)!
We had a rental car and I was a bit worried about street parking being an issue -- in Boston, street parking is a major challenge! -- but it was very easy to get a street space near the house every time we returned with our car.
We arrived at night and the entry to the apartment is in the back of a bigger home so the pictorial step by step check in instructions were fantastic!
We had a couple of issues with the property on arrival (which ended up being atypical) and I was very appreciative that Lisa responded to my message and resolved the situation so quickly. Thank you so much, Lisa!
Also, I didn't realize there was coffee until our second day there and it was DELICIOUS. I also appreciated that there was recycling on site! We ended up eating out the whole time since we were out and on the go all day, but the kitchen is stocked with cookware and cutlery and also spices, etc. if you want to cook/eat in.
Thank you for being our home base for our first visit to San Jose!
