(476) Bright Modern 2BR House

BeverlyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
It is a very comfortable home and nicely decorated. The bed was very comfortable and the home had everything we needed for a great stay. I always worry about having coffee in the morning and when picking it up wonder if I will need grounds or pods. No need to worry, they have a dual coffee maker that works with either, Thank you. The home is the perfect size for two adults or two adults and one or two small children. Probably a little tight for more than two adults though if you are traveling with a group. The fireplace is nice and cozy. The only difficulty arriving was getting in and out of the garage, it is very tight and on street parking is difficult to find. As you can see in the video there are some steep stairs up to the home so pack light, a few small bags is better than one big one. Once you are inside though the home is very nice. Thank you for a great stay.

⭐️On Santana Row! NEW Entire Condo! Self-check-in✅

JennyRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We've traveled many times to SJC to visit grandkids. This studio apartment exceeded every brand hotel & extended stay place we've stayed at in the past. Was surprised to see Eugene's listing at Santana Row for the price. Besides the exceptional location to Santana Row (on site) & Valley Fair, the accomodations were super comfortable, spotless, well equipped, and safe. Also convenient to other SJC offerings. Eugene was very communicative before & during our visit. We will make this our to go property in the future.

Charming 2 bedroom 2 story condo

HyeJinRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Mayela is an outstanding host - extremely responsive and always replies to messages instantly. She hosted us at a cozy 2 bedroom condo and it was perfect for our longer stay until we waited for the house renovations to finish. The condo comes completely furnished with a fully stocked kitchen and a washer/dryer combo which was convenient. This is a great place to stay - very close to Walmart and Costco and a bunch of great restaurants in walking distance.

Spacious Top Floor Condo Retreat

TiffanyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Joann's place was perfect for my mother-in-law! We live in the same community so my mother-in-law was able to walk to our unit easily and she loves the landscaping of our community so it was a treat for her to walk through it every day. On top of that, Joann's place was more updated and nicer than ours so she felt very pampered. :P My mother-in-law kept calling it the penthouse suite so it was a great success. If possible, we would book it for every one of her visits!

Noe Valley entire guest suite overlooking downtown

EstherRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This house was perfect for our weekend stay for a wedding banquet. There were five of us, two couples and a single. Everyone had a comfy bed. Veronica was quick to answer all questions and was helpful with special requests. The house is a short walk to 24th Street, where most restaurants and shops are. It is hilly and quite steep, but well worth the hike. FYI, there are quite a few steps to the front door from street level, which are pretty steep if you have mobility issues. The house is clean and comfortable. Thank you, Veronica, for a great stay!

2 bedrooms house with cedar hot tub or sauna

JudiRating, 5 stars2 months ago
I wanted to give my friend a special Christmas gift & going to Filoli Manson & a night close by to stay was it. Peter’s house was unique, interesting pieces of furniture & artwork, a turntable with selection of 78’s, an absolutely amazing seahorse light (I wanted to take that home), & the cedar hot tub. It was a cold & rainy so did not get to explore the extensive gardens & grounds. Planning a trip back in warmer weather to do just that. Thanks so much & happy holidays. Judi, Marty & Marianne
