About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Downtown Gem: 2BR Historic Spanish Bungalow • Short Walk to SJSU + Parking

Welcome to our cozy 2BR Spanish Revival bungalow, a short walk to SJSU. Enjoy the private gated backyard with a furnished patio. Amenities include outdoor seating, washer/dryer, guaranteed on-site parking, and fast Wi-Fi 6. Super convenient to I-280 (so easy to drive around), Hwy 87/101, Caltrain, SJC, the Convention Center, SAP Center, Levi’s Stadium, and all of downtown. Ideal for work or leisure; message us anytime!

The space
Our comfy 2-bedroom home pairs mid-century modern style with everyday ease. Parking: one car space in the driveway, which is shared with the neighboring house. Please do not block the sidewalk or another vehicle. Public accessible parking is separate and is only for eligible vehicles under posted rules. Inside you’ll find a fully stocked kitchen, smart TV, blazing-fast mesh Wi-Fi, and a dedicated laundry room. Sleep soundly on a king in the primary and a queen in the guest room; both with soft bamboo pillows; and use the genuine-leather sleeper sofa for extra guests.

Enjoy the private gated backyard with a furnished patio. Getting around is a breeze: we’re very close to I-280 (and near Hwy 87/101), so driving anywhere is simple.

The home is professionally cleaned before each stay and stocked with fresh linens, toiletries, and essentials so you can settle in and feel at home.

Check-in is from 3 PM and checkout is by 11 AM. Self check-in is with a smart lock. Your check-in instructions are sent before arrival. For same-day bookings, message us if they have not arrived.

For your safety, the home is equipped with 24/7 exterior video surveillance. Be sure to list the correct number of guests in your reservation and notify us through the Vrbo app if any changes arise.

Other things to note
Please walk pets off-property and pick up after them to protect the garden and keep shared areas clean.

No smoking or vaping anywhere on the property, including the backyard. No parties or events. Only guests named on the reservation may enter; unregistered visitors are not permitted. Quiet hours are 10 PM to 8 AM.

Additionally, please clean up and take away the trash after to prevent overflowing our trash can. We reserve the right to charge additional cleaning fee or excess trash if we have too much trash too early (Mon is our trash pick up), we need to physically take the trash out to dump and pay additional fees! DO NOT put trash in the recycle bin, they will refuse to pick up our trash!

Please keep in mind, we are located on a busy commercial area within walking distance to San Jose University, so there are potential noises due to lots of foot / car traffic.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

We are visiting San Jose from Los Angeles and this house was very charming, cozy, and clean. The house looks exactly like the pictures posted. The host was great and the back yard was cute and pet friendly.

We loved our stay in the bungalow! It truly had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable trip with our family of four. The space felt welcoming and well equipped, making it easy to settle in and relax right away. One of our favorite parts was the backyard. It was a great spot to unwind and give us some extra room to spread out and enjoy time together. We also loved how walkable the location was. There were so many dining options just a short distance away, which made meals easy and fun without needing to drive. Overall, this was a fantastic place to stay and we would happily come back again!
