Functional, convenient spot to stay in the South Bay, with a nice backyard.
While the neighborhood is not ideal for walking (small residential cul-de-sac next to fenced warehouses and the SAP center), it is very convenient by car to much of San Jose and the rest of the South Bay since you are right by the highway. There is also a Whole Foods nearby.
There is plane noise from planes taking off and landing at the San Jose airport several times a day. If you have the windows open, it is loud enough to need to rewind the show you are watching, but it wasn’t a dealbreaker for us. If you are a light sleeper, recommend earplugs.
The internet was strong and stable enough to support two people working remotely without issues.
Overall, we had a good stay. Ben’s place was a convenient and functional home base for our San Jose trip.
