The good is that staff at the front desk was nice and responsive. But the rooms (and hotel in general) are seriously dated; air/fan unit loud and clunky (making it hard to sleep), and refrig also hummed like a generator (making it hard to sleep). Walls are paper thin. Food at restaurant almost inedible.

The rooms are horrible and there are stains on the carpet and floors. The parking area in the back does not feel safe. The $9.99 continental breakfast was poor. The bathroom near the restaurant has less than half of the bulbs working and you can read advertisements while you sit in there. The handle on the inside of the gate... More

Old, dark and noisy. The beds were clean, as I always check this first. But the room was very dark. One bulb was hanging out of the socket and not working, the others must have had really low wattage. Extremely noisy as we were next to where the housekeepers do the laundry and park their carts. Loud talking and laughing.... More

I'm in San Jose often for work, but have never stayed here before. After the negative reviews, I was a bit freaked out that our travel agent put us here, but honestly, it was fine. Keep in mind that this hotel is on the lower end of pricing for hotels in the business area near the airport, and expectations should... More

It is a roach motel, but that's in the staff. Will eating in the restaurant, one of the staff cleared their nose cavity and spit out on the restaurant floor. Hard to miss when you are 10 feet away! My room had the apperance of clean, but you could smell mold/mildew. Stay at your own risk.

I travel to San Jose regularly but on the trip I took back in November last year all hotels in the area were sold out. My travel agent found a room at this hotel. The hotel is independently owned so you really have no recourse. I checked into my "motel" room. The room lighting was so dim you really can't... More

I stayed here the night before flying out to Hawaii. The rooms were comfortable, but not fancy. Very close to the airport and they offer a shuttle service. Additionally, if you desire, they offer a park and fly option that is available when you make reservations direct with them. All employees were friendly and professional. I would stay here again...

We chose this hotel for two reasons, the "sleep,park,fly" service and because it is a member of Choice Priviledges . Not so, they are no longer affiliated with them. The only good things about this hotel was the shuttle service and the restaurant. We had dinner and were both pleasantly surprised by the food choices , presentation, and quality. The... More
