The TV didn't work and the phone wasn't connected when I tried to call down to the office. Everything else was okay for the price, but it is a bit noisy since it's right off a big street.

The property and staff were great, the rooms were very clean and updated recently. The neighborhood was definitely a bit sketchy and not a good place to be out alone alone after dark.

The hotel is clean and conveniently located to San Jose State University. It is under the flight plan to San Jose airport so the airport noise is loud and the traffic on the street is also loud.
