We checked in around 10 pm and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We were able to park right in front of our room. The tiny motel soap was the only thing that I would have changed. Great value and close to the freeway to get us back to our trip with no problem.

I arrived for 2 days and decided to extend for another 2 days. I love the location which provides access to groceries and restaurants but also transit nearby, with both VTA buses and Caltrain, it’s a wonderful property, with comfortable rooms which are well maintained.
