Great hotel near the San Jose Airport.

We were pleasantly surprised by this hotel near the San Jose Airport. It was very clean, updated and in a safe area with cool Arts and Crafts homes nearby. Restaurants were easily walkable. Parking was easy and shopping was nearby. It was in a University area. The manager and house keeper were super nice at check in. Thanks for the pleasant surprise!!
