Great breakfast for the price - exceeded expectations and good time. Bed was quite comfy for the price and the bedroom was a great side for my friend and I. The guy wt reception was lovely and accomodating.

We weren’t pleased when we saw the bathrooms which were shared (fine for the money) but not the cleanest and did not feel so secure. Any guest (male or female) could walk in at any moment. A lot of homelessness immediately outside the hotel which is to keep in mind especially if travelling solo or hoping to go out at night - and I mean there were homeless men lurking staring and coming up to me at 1am asking for some money. Wouldn’t go out at that time again whilst staying there!

The location is a bit outside (about2 blocks) of where you start seeing a lot of homeless people begging for money trash everywhere and a sea of people walking up and down.. staff was very nice and food too at a fair price.. and a nice breakfast included (most days scramble eggs, bread, fruits and coffee). They also have a limited a la carte menu all day until 9pm which is very convenient).

There was no AC.. just the fan running and if you need it they give you a fan.. The weather was kind of cool and cooler at night so it wasn't that bad.. a couple of nights were a little warm so would've been nice to have AC..

I loved the location, it is just in the downtown of San Jose, plus everything is around the corner, food, tourist places, parks, museums. All that just in a 5-minute walk.

The room was clean and quiet. The beds are in great shape, comfortable. Bradley speaks great english and was very helpful with everything we asked for and needed.

Our room had two showers. Only one had hot water.

The hotel was an older building, which had a lot of charm. The staff were very pleasant and helpful.

The room was a little small. Once we got our bags in, there wasn't much floor space left! You get what you pay for, and I didn't pay much, so I can't complain. The location wasn't great... there weren't any bars close by and only one restaurant. I didn't feel very safe when we strayed off the main road the hotel is located on. My bed squeaked every time I moved.

You can see by the photos - the place is gorgeous. It's on a busy corner - right next to the back you could use for $ exchange... I was offered a private room even tho I had signed up for a dorm - they gave me a dorm room to myself - one double bed and 6 bunk beds - with 2 showers and two toilet closets within the room [not down the hall]. It was sort of wacky, but I didn't have to listen to other People's sleep noises, so... good...

The breakfast was only meh.

Pretty well located, staff is really welcoming and helpful. Close to the bus stop from the airport and from several car rentals. Breakfast included is cooked when you order, so everything is nice and warm, and very tasty! Great cost benefit!

Room is right next to a big road, so it can get kind of noisy sometimes. But at nighttime it settles down.

Very friendly staff, big room, we were upgraded to a room with a private bathroom as one was available. Good hot shower, really nice breakfast of scrambled eggs, fruit and coffee.

Can be loud at night with music playing in the lobby
