Loved everything! Really great place to stay in San Jose. The unit is very modern and spotless clean! The view is second to none! Car elevator is cool. Receptionist was very helpful. They kindly let us stay on the rooftop to accept some business calls after the check-out. I also loved the gym and jacuzzi with a view. The check-in did not require a key and was contactless. This is a jewel of a stay!

The double bed room with shared bathrooms we had this time was very spacious, and the bathroom is always clean. Shower works perfectly, pressure and hot water. As for the rest, see our review on staying here the first time, it's the perfect place to stay in San Jose.

    Fabulous amenities in a good location (the airport side of SJ) near supermarkets and eateries, a 15-min Uber ride to the central zone. Quiet, good AC, comfy bed, laundry facilities and kitchen all great. Super, safe parking garage.

    Very well equipped and impressively furnished apartment. Great facilities including pool and gym. Ideal for a short stay in San Jose! Hosts really had thought of everything, leaving supplies of lots of things you might need in the kitchen for the duration of your stay and information about the local area. Highly recommend!

    The personnel at the main desk was very friendly and helpful! The apartment is really nice with a kitchen and living room with a beautiful view with some restaurants in the neighborhood. The city center is a long distance walk but still doable. The Sabana park is around the corner! Lastly, the jacuzzi on the rooftop is warm and nice with a good view on the city as their are only few big buildings in the neighborhood!
