What a special place and special host(s). From the moment I messaged them until the moment I left, Phu was helpful, responsive, resourceful, and warm. He made me feel completely at home and if I ever needed anything he was solution oriented, a greater listener, and appreciated my feedback and responded if there was something missing. He did whatever was within his ability to help improve the situation then and there, so I always felt like a valued tenant.
The place was truly amazing. A very quiet unit, within a greater house with other similar custom studio units and a wonderful back yard available to all, so while quiet, I felt I was part of a respectful and pleasant community of other travelers and would enjoy the hellos as I would occasionally cross paths with others.
The studio itself had a very comfortable bed, a fully stocked and spacious kitchen, great ventilation/ac and windows, a beautiful bathroom and shower and a cozy couch and a TV with Premium services (Comcast and Apps to watCh whatever you want), hardwood floors, cleaning tools, and a closet to store stuff. It is close to SJ airport and central to many parts of Silicon Valley within 15-20 min drive in all directions.
In terms of value I think it’s one of the most hidden gems around: it felt nicer and much more homey and stocked than a hotel for lower price, with a wonderful, wonderful host, a built in and casual community that made it feel less isolated with an occasional smile or hello PLUS Phu was generous enough to give access to the garage where there are two community washer/dryer units for use which was a total treat.
Highly recommend this unit, the home in general, and working with Phu as one of the best hosts I’ve ever worked with/stayed with! Thanks Phu and Tri!
