"Wish we would have stayed here the whole time instead of terrible San Jose. 2 mins from airport. Pool area was great with a few small comfy areas for shade or shelter from rain. On site hotel had delicious dinner and included breakfast. Friendly staff. Clean rooms. Safe. Free parking. Planes fly low above the hotel but we thought is was cool, not annoying.
