I live in San Francisco and wanted a change of scene, ended up staying at Rob’s place in San Jose for 2 weeks. Everything is perfect, I absolutely love the view the house has to offer. It is very relaxing to sit on the patio to just chill overlooking the city. I also enjoyed working out on the deck in the morning. It is also very close, 5 min walking, to the Alum rock park, where you can do hikes. All in all, the stay was perfect for me. The only thing is you do need a car to get in and out, that’s the case for pretty much everywhere in the Bay Area.
