Enjoy a more relaxed pace of sightseeing — and perhaps even get in touch with your spiritual side — at BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir. If it's possible to go inside, why not hang around for a few moments of quiet meditation?

This place of worship is on the to-do lists of many travelers to Milpitas. But BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir isn't the only highlight in the area. California's Great America, Great Mall of the Bay Area, and Tesla Motors are some other worthwhile sights nearby.

8/10 Very Good! (1,007 reviews)

This was a good place for a quick trip to Santa Cruz. We stayed with our family of 5 for one night. There was plenty of space for all of us. They only have stairs so if you need an elevator you would need to request the first floor. The place is a bit run down however, if the only thing you need is a clean place with a bed to sleep in then this will work for you. The walking distance to the boardwalk was great. It made it easy for us to come and go as needed. Our room was right by the patio on the second floor where people would hang out and smoke. I wasn’t a fan of that because we could smell it in the room. The beds were not super comfortable but you get what you get for the price.

We stayed here for a family vacation, and it's the best spot. The customer service, property, and food are great, and our dog loved every minute of the trail. We’re coming back!

This was a very clean room and they had just done improvements on the location and the room. Only thing that was bad was our room did not have shampoo or conditioner and per other guests asking at the front office they did not have any either. The one gentleman was told at 0715 am that he would have to wait til 0900 to get shampoo. I walked the couple blocks down the road and bought some at the gas station.
