If Gwen's place is available - stay! The location is perfect. Walkable to downtown SJ for dinner, drinks, etc. Don't miss the Italian Cafe in Little Italy. Perfect place for a trek to Santa Cruz, Monterrey or San Francisco. Comfortable and felt like home; we made several dinners at home and enjoyed on the patio. We were a group of 4 and used both the main house and cottage. Everyone gave it a thumbs up!
