A really good, clean, quiet comfortable motel. The staff was responsive. There's good food very close by, especially for breakfast. It was an easy walk from the train station, and an even easier walk to a bus to get to the airport. And very reasonably priced! Most of all, I slept very comfortably here. Like I was at home.

Unexpected jewel conveniently located down the street from the Shark Tank. Very clean, ? updated recently. Walkable to multiple restaurants, responsive staff. It is not a 5-star motel, but for what it is, the family running it does a great job. Suggestions: replace aerators on faucets, supply larger soap bars, kleenex, and directions for the TV. I could not figure out how to work the Sat TV. Definitely will consider staying there again my next visit to San Jose.

Very responsive and helpful front desk. The exterior of the motel is a little dated, but the interior seems freshly renovated and very clean, room has a nice clean laundry smell when we entered, and it seemed to be generally quiet. A lot of great restaurants were walking distance including breakfast, lunch, and dinner options. A few bodegas were just down the street as well. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!
