Great locations. Lovely hotel in San Jose
Pros:

Great location. Friendly staff and the rooms are clean and comfortable. We go a welcome drink and 10% off of dinner and even though the restaurant was empty the food was delicious and really great service.

Cons:

The hotel is being renovated and that’s great… but that means that some times the elevator will be blocked by the workers.
