A nice short stay in San Jose.
Checked in 10pm and checked out 6:30am. The property looked great with ample parking. Located in a relatively quiet but well lit area. The balcony overlooking the pool was an added bonus for us. The bathroom looks a little outdated.

The key didn't worked two times, meaning that they usually have issues with the configuration of the room keys. They offered a discount voucher for Dennys but when I asked for it they said they've run out of discounts. In general a good place to stay and very convenient that the restaurant Dennys is open 24 hrs

As soon as i walked in the room there was a strong mildew smell. The AC didnt work and the pillows were horrible. The room was quite dated, but i only stayed for one night, so i got through it.

Nice Hotel
The exception was at the Breakfast restaurant., the personnel at the lobby asked us if we had any allergies at our arrival, and we told them about gluten and dairy, however the restaurant on the next day knew about the request, but didn't prepare for it... disappointing
