Nice stay
Nice clean hotel room, good quality shampoo, conditioner and soap. Noisy neighbor was the only down side.

Good, not great...
I wanted to love it, but just a couple of solvable problems got in the way. The good - great location, at least for my needs. Nice modern decor. Comfortable bed, pillows, nice sized room. The bad - The maid didn't turn the alarm off from the previous guest so I wrestled with the alarm clock at 5;30am (one of my pet hotel peeves); the rooms have blinds that don't really shut out all the light, and there was a very bright light outside my room - so it stayed way too bright.

putting the fun in funky.
we totally enjoyed our stay. the location is prime. from the entry into the lobby we knew it would be fun. the colors and theme are perfect for a boutique hotel. our room was not large but updated and had all we needed. quiet and clean with cozy bedding and able to brew a cup of smooth coffee in the room. my husband was pleased with the exercise room. there is decent coffee in the lobby and an adjacent room with two computers and a printer. staff was pleasant. you can walk out of the lobby and be at the front door of the ihop. decent breakfast.(although i would skip their crazy-bitter coffee) would stay here again

Great location and re-model
The location was great for Great America and visiting people in the Bay Area. Close to freways yet quiet. Beds were very comfortable with feather pillows and comforter. The room was decorated with sleek furnishings, but could be a little bigger for 4 people. Every request was met quickly and courteously. IHOP connected right building.

great anniversary weekend!
this hotel was very cool! the furniture and all the decorations went along with the avatar/ futuristic theme of the hotel! the rooms were always clean, it did get somewhat stuffy in the room but just turning on the air conditioning made it very comfortable. we went to great america while staying at the hotel, it was just a short walk so we saved $12 for a parking fee at great america. i think the only thing the hotel was missing was a tv guide and a bindere with restraunt suggestions and different activites to do while in santa clara. all in all we had an awsome anniversary weekend!

My avatar would be proud
We needed a night away and this hotel helped by providing one. We were happy with the service, intrigued by the decor, and rested by the retreat to our room. Although we didn't use the pool it looked fun. Also a huge bonus, we checked for bed bugs and didn't find any so kudos on that. Thanks.
