AC Hotel by Marriott San Jose Downtown

"Hotel facilities were as expected for a 3 star hotel. They had water and coffee in the room which was nice. Staff was very helpful. We forgot something in our safe after checkout and only realized after we were at one hour away. They kindly informed housekeeping and we were able to access the safe and retrieve our property. Thank you to the nice employees of AC Downtown San Jose !"

The Flamingo Motel

10/10 Excellent

Americas Best Value Inn San Jose Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel and stuff"

Hotel Clariana

8/10 Good

"The staff was super friendly and the location is convenient, though there was significant street noise on Friday night even on the 5th floor. We are heavy sleepers so it wasn’t an issue for us. Bathroom was very clean and spacious- one of the better hotel bathrooms I’ve had at this price range! Bed was comfortable but pillows too big. Coffee pods were not replenished and dirty cup was left, but towels were changed and bed was kind of made. Fitness room has a good selection of free weights and two benches, no weight machines, two treadmills and a recumbent bike. Breakfast was passable."
