We celebrated my wife’s birthday in San Jose June 26-30th and this property alone was outstanding but the staff especially the night crew was amazing! The entire staff from the front desk to the bar and all around made me and my wife feel at home and relaxed. We are extremely satisfied and we’ll stay again!
