Visiting our son in San Jose
First time reserving a VRBO so I was very nervous. Everything went very smoothly. We had a wonderful time. Only suggestion is to replace that couch. I put pillows on the seat to make it more comfortable.

Great location to Santa Clara
This is the second time we have stayed in this building. We enjoyed this unit and it fit our needs perfectly. We like how close it is to campus -- a short walk. The unit was clean and the check in was easy!

San Jose apartment
I was very comfortable in this older 2nd level apartment. Kitchen is well set up to take care of your own cooking. No dishwasher. There is a washer and dryer inside and an ironing board. Heat is from an old wall heater, but is totally fine during the February I stayed. No AC, but it wasn't needed at all.

We loved our stay here, easy access to Santa Clara University and walking to best coffee shop in San Jose area (the Voyager). Our main goal was to have a safe, clean & easy place to stay and thus was perfect! We will be back.

Convenient, you get what you pay for, apartment
Good location near SCU. Parent Weekend visit was during unusual winter storms.The heat did not work but prop management sent someone over the next day and fixed the pilot light. Beds are comfortable. Living room furniture and dining table chairs are not comfortable. Oven needs to be fixed.

Adequate for our needs
The only reason i didn't give this 5 stars is the lack of comfortable furniture. The couch is hard and the dining chairs are metal. The kitchen is stocked and the location is walkable to a grocery store. The neighborhood is cute and is easy to use Uber to get to local bars and restaurants but again, it would have been nice if some effort was made to make it more comfortable.
