Great stay if you are flying in or out of San Jose. Shuttle runs every 15 or 20 minutes and only takes 5 minutes to get to airport. Breakfast is great for a chain hotel with lots of options. Nice staff. Clean snd comfortable

Except for airport pickup everything else was great. We had to wait for>30 minutes and finally had to call hotel and they sent shuttle. The hotel is about 2 minutes from airport!! So I recommend visitors calling hotel upon getting to pick up spot, to save time
