Yo-yo's mini villa was clean, comfortable, and very affordable for this region. It seems worth it having to go outside to the recently-remodeled clean bathroom. Yo-yo is a most gracious host who "aims to please" her guests. No formal food preparation area but lots of patios space and indoor and outdoor tables. Safe and quiet San Jose neighborhood near the beautiful Alum Rock park, which has a pretty good creek and miles and miles of hiking and biking trails. Altogether a good situation for a solo traveler!
