10/10 Exceptional

I ended up here when another hotel cancelled my reservation - I will say my first thought when I rolled up was I'd somehow driven into the 50s! The front desk was very efficient and friendly, and the room was perfectly fine. I've stayed in some poor places in my time, but I don't count this among them! The room was clean and well kept, and everything worked just as it should. I am glad I got a ground floor room since the stairs reminded me of a childhood incident, but I doubt most people would care about that. I wouldn't want to stray too far after sunset, but I'd also have no problem coming back here again for a good night's rest.

The toilet seat had a small black mark. It was very warm inside the room even thought the outside was cool. There were many eateries nearby. TV remote was difficult to operate, but I don't have a TV.

The hotel is centralized and easy to get to a few different freeways and walking distance to restaurants, the Shark tank, and CalTrain.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Decent place for the price and of course I suppose you are in the middle of the city so easy access to local attractions. The staff was friendly and helpful. Place is a bit old so likely in need of some renovation soon. Still worth it overall.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The room and bathroom were very clean and the bed comfortable. The microwave and refrigerator were a nice touch, and, of course, the coffee maker. Parking was easy and available and the staff were very friendly and helpful. This motel is very convenient to the SAP Center and there are numerous cafes and fast food options close by, as well as a Whole Foods store down the street aways.

10/10 Exceptional

Comfortable, non-fancy motel that's a 10 minute walk from the San Jose Diridon train station. Nice staff / owners. Fair number of eating options. The closest are right across the street. If you have dire need of a USB port, there are none in the rooms as far as I could see (although that wasn't important to me). All in all, my 3 night stay was fine. I'd stay there again.
