We enjoyed staying here. The location was incredibly convenient and in a very nice neighborhood in San Jose. Check in and check out were simple and the hosts were very responsive. The space is an extra 'cottage' in the back of a nice home. Entry is via a gate at the side of the house and through the backyard (which is admittedly a little messy). A friendly dog greeted us just once in the backyard. The space is clean and well-maintained. No kitchen, but does have a little nook with coffee, mini-fridge, etc. Just a heads up that there is a scent of cats/dogs having lived there. It didn't bother us, but could be an issue for someone with bad allergies. Thanks!
