A quiet, private space that was a good respite after long days of being downtown. There is a full-length mirror (not shown in the preview photos, but useful regardless) and an air conditioning unit that effectively cools down the room on muggier days. We appreciated the water pressure in the shower (as a tip, the water takes a bit of time to warm up, so that's a good stint for brushing your teeth) and the electronic locks on the property. The common areas were a nice way to meet & interact with other guests, who were always polite and respectful. Kitchen area remained very clean throughout the stay, and the cement patio that bridges the room & the main house is also tidy and clean.
The house is within a 7-min walking distance of a row of restaurants, which provide a good resource for early breakfasts. The location is also easy to find for rideshares, if you need transportation to downtown San Jose. As a whole, the room is well-valued for its proximity to downtown and its overall function & calmness.
