Was alright

Was not satisfied of the room they have given us, they gave us a room for a handicap, and none of us is a handicap.

The room was nice but the food is over priced and horrible, silver ware was not clean. I would only recommend hotel to a friend if they only need a place to sleep,not eat.

Okay for a weekend stay

I went with my family for the weekend. At first glance I thought "wow, this place looks great!" In reality, the hotel could use a more modern upgrade. Our hotel room was spacious, but the structure was a bit dated. Liked the flat panel tv, but it seemed out of place. The shower kept clogging up and the maids were obscenely loud in the morning cleaning the adjacent room (banging, buzzing- probably the vacuum). The 2nd floor gym was a bonus. Overall, the hotel is good for a short weekend, but I don't think I'd want to stay there again. Plus, you have to pay separate parking fee per night!

Very nice hotel, right price & location

Very nice hotel. We were able to check in early, which was very key for us. The venue is very comfortable and it is so close to the San Jose airport that is made getting to our morning flight a dream. I don't think we will ever fly in and out of San Francisco again. Our only complaint was that the air conditioner in our particular room had some kind of bearing problem and was a bit loud.

Great night's stay

Quality night's stay in a spacious room. Obviously convenient to San Jose International Airport which is why we stayed in San Jose to begin with. Enjoyed the sushi bar downstairs as well.

Take a map with you, the area known as First Street, Old Bayshore Drive and the vicinity is a little difficult to navigate for a newcomer to the area. Got lost getting off Hwy 101 for 25 minutes trying to figure out the streets which are cut off by 101 and I-880.
