Great stay in a nice neighborhood
Great and affordable stay in the hills of San Jose. Everything was clean and the bed was super comfortable! Only 15 minutes from San Jose State University and downtown. I will plan on staying here again when we visit our daughter in college.

LOVE IT
We had a great time staying here. It was a short uber ride to downtown San Jose and a short uber ride to some wineries. Beautiful view!!! She was so helpful in making sure we were comfortable and offered suggestions for us.

Very comfy apartment
The owner sent very concise photos and instructions about the check-in, the process was easy. Amy was immediately responsive to inquiries and requests. The bed is comfortable and the neighborhood is residential and quiet, except for a couple of barking neighborhood dogs and a rooster nearby! Bring a sound machine or use a sleep sound app on your phone if you want to sleep past sunup.

Location , location, location
What a Wonderful view, and lovely landscaped property. The bed was not great( very squeaky) However for 2 people , the studio is fantastic . And a great jumping off point to see all the south Bay area has to offer. Amy, the host was very helpful, but also allowed for much privacy. Overall it was just fine.

Peaceful place to land.
We needed a simple, private place to stay. We had several family members to visit. Being in and out was important and then getting rest in between was perfect! Amy answered all our questions promptly and was able to accommodate us when we made small requests for items like an extra lamp to use. It was a total win/win situation for us.
