It is in a really good location in downtown SJ. Carlos is very responsive to any messages and is a nice host. It was well equipped with all the amenities needed for cooking, watching tv, etc. I feel like the place was a bit more rundown than I expected from the pictures. We noticed the bed frame had been broken on one side so the mattress dipped on one side when we were sleeping on it. The pots/pans were all functional and we were able to use it for cooking. I noticed there was no salt and no extra trash bags for us to use though. Also, the walls are a bit thin so you can hear other neighbors walking around. These are small things and we worked out way around them.
If you are coming to downtown SJ and need a place to stay for a short time for a business trip/tourism, this is good for the value since you will be in a good location and has all the necessities that you need! If you are looking for a place where you are staying for longer periods of time, I would not recommend for you.
