Full size fridge great accommodations! Can’t ask for more!
Pros:

That it’s in the middle of nowhere, this is our third or fourth year going here for the Fourth of July. We plan on going every fourth. And that me and my wife can stay in a quiet room to avoid the fireworks for my wife’s service dog.

Cons:

The only thing I can think of is that if you have a room by the pool, it gets kind of loud.

Great help at the front desk
Pros:

I had a great stay at the Milpitas Elementary. Everyone was great and tried their best to make sure we enjoyed our stay. The evening reception was relaxing and enjoyable and special thank to the manager who had been there since CD early morning helping with breakfast. A special thanks to Davina, at the front desk, she went above and beyond to make sure all our needs were met!

Pros:

房間裡有飲用水,冰箱,真是太棒了。床很舒服。

Cons:

我沒有辦法跟櫃檯要kettle回房間煮熱水,
洗澡的水很小,幾乎沒辦法好好洗頭。水也不是很熱,洗得很艱困。
如果能夠選擇的話,我會換旅館
