Not a 4 stars hotel!

Tried to believe it is 4 stars hotel but it is not! Doesn't feel that warm welcome like I used to get at other 4 stars hotels.

Super Comfy Bed

My gf and I rarely have great nights of sleep when sharing a bed but the bed at the Moorpark was splendid. The sheets were very nice and felt good and the bed itself was quite firm. All in all I slept the whole night and so did she. Also, we adjusted the temperature in the room and there was no noisy unit kicking on and off the whole night that we noticed.

Surprise luxury at bargain price

It was great - front desk staff were very helpful- called to ensure we liked the room shortly after we checked in, We were only there for one night, but enjoyed it very much. Welcoming lobby, nice bed, clean room. Nice 'mini bar' snacks from which to choose, bathroom well appointed. We took a card to remember the place - and would recommend.

Wonderful

Front desk personnel was the best. Very helpful. We felt hotel was a great value. Perfect location for our needs. Tried to leave a day early, but traffic was very bad, simply called back to hotel and they reopened our room and we spent one more night. We will use the Moorpark on our next trip to San Jose.

Convenience accommodation.

Location was only adequate, as were the amenities. It would have been nice to have some sort of a kitchenette or at least a microwave.

Nice Boutique Hotel

Very good remodel of an older hotel. Very comfortable quiet room, well located near downtown San Jose, Los Gatos, and Saratoga. Easy drive to the Sharks game and back. Nice pool and spa with cabanas and nice decor. Breakfast was included and very enjoyable.
