Had a very nice extended stay at Jingqiang's place while working on a project in Santa Clara. The room I had was in back and with view of trees on adjacent middle school, so some feeling of nature. The school was not too loud by the way. There were multiple guests but I did not have any issues with access to shower when getting ready for work, as most of the guests used shower at different times. There was a small fridge/freezer in room which was really good to have. As other reviewers noted this is a great value for San Jose, so a huge plus.
