Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a great experience overall. The recently remodeled rooms were spacious and well-equipped, offering a comfortable king-sized bed, fridge, microwave, and a private bath. The free in-room wifi was convenient, and the cleanliness and modern decor made my stay enjoyable. The breakfast had a good variety of options, and despite being located on a main street, the hotel was surprisingly quiet.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were relatively clean, but there was a strong chemical/floral smell that made me wonder what they were trying to cover up. The beds were comfortable and clean, with four pillows per bed, but the room felt dusty, as if no one had rented it recently. The service was very friendly and helpful, but I wished they offered more food options beyond little rolls, apples, and water. The location was convenient as we were visiting our son at Santa Clara University, but it was in a busy intersection in a Santa Clara neighborhood that I wasn't sure about. The dining was on the basic side, with no variety, but it was okay overall. The facilities were satisfactory, but nothing exceptional.
My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable overall. The rooms were well-equipped, but I would have liked more breakfast options. The service was friendly and professional, though a minor issue with one staff member in the morning. The location was convenient for my short stay, with easy access to key areas. The dining experience was satisfactory, offering the essentials. The facilities were adequate for my needs, and the value for the price paid was reasonable.
