I had a great experience staying for one night in late January 2012. The room was lovely with a comfortable mattress, luxury bedding, four pillows, lots of fluffy towels and many toiletries. There was a small refrigerator along with a microwave and coffee maker in the room. The night clerk was very pleasant, welcomed me with a big smile, and... More

I stayed at the Day Inn Santa Clara because my usual hotel was booked. Negatives: 1) Motor lodge layout - all rooms open to parking lot. Not great for feeling safe. And noisy. 2) No fitness center 3) Breakfast marginal, need to bring food back to room 4) Rooms a bit old. 5) Ceilings quite thin. Postives: 1) Rooms ok... More

Very basic, but had all the essentials: very clean, comfy bed, flat-screen TV. The location was convenient: near the San Jose airport, on an east-west main drag that cuts all the way through Silicon Valley and sports many restaurants and practical shops, including mom-and-pop Indian and Asian restaurants and fast-food joints. The hotel staff were friendly and solicitous. Breakfast was... More

The hotel is fine if you're working and need somewhere to stay, but don't go there for a holiday. It's a weird location, quite hard to find and hard to drive to if you approach from the wrong direction. staff friendly, room fine, but rather noisy outside. Sounded like people were driving large trucks in and out of the parking... More

We stayed at the Days Inn again for four nights in August. We enjoyed our visits last year, so we were sure to return. The location is ideal for exploring San Francisco on the Cal-train, and for visiting the University of Santa Clara, San Jose, and Santa Cruz. The room was very spacious, clean, and comfortable. The breakfast was very... More

I have stayed in hostelries where a lousy mattress ruined my sleep so the king-sized, pillowtop, firm mattress at this Days Inn made my stay. Our clean, spacious room included a couch, desk, bureau, flat-screen TV, microwave, refrigerator, plenty of mirrors, and even enough lamps with sufficient wattage to read by! Yes, the motel is by a freeway exit but... More

This is a wonderful Days Inn, with stuffed, comfortable rooms. I visited for one night, and will stay here again. The nearby Vanguard Bingo Hall is a 2-3 miles drive, and after a 5-hour volunteer evening selling Flash, the restful bed is just what I needed. I've been to several Midwest Days Inns, and they all pale in comparison to... More

We were happy with the Days Inn. The staff was friendly and the room was clean (aside from the bathroom, which had some mildew) and comfortable. They even offered a computer in the lobby for guests to check emails, which was very convenient. The continental breakfast was your basic bagels, cereal, apples, coffee, tea.... but was laid out nicely. More
