I broke my phone during my trip and the lady that runs it went out of her way to help me order a taxi ride on a local ride app with her phone to make sure I got the airport safely to get home. She didn’t speak English but that didn’t stop her being a great person and helping me out. Showers could use more warmer water but overall not issues ##### Ryan Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ivette 7 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is a friendly place to meet other people. Travelers are pretty easy going; they come and go and are pretty sociable there, so I really enjoyed that. Especially if you're coming by yourself, you won't feel alone there. You get to meet people from all over the world; it was a phenomenal experience overall for me. The only thing I would like to add is that they do serve a light breakfast so don't expect eggs, bacon or anything like that. Breakfast is mostly 2 types of fruit, bread, butter, jam, cereal, milk, coffee and tea, that's all but you are welcome to cook anything you want for yourself in the kitchen. The host Federico and his mother Rita are wonderful and have a wealth of knowledge about what to go and what to do Just remember to stay safe no matter where you go! ##### Ivette Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Carlos 4 Dec 2024 ##### Carlos Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel Casa Roland San José](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Jose-Hotels-Hotel-Casa-Roland-San-Jose.h1189882.Hotel-Information) > > [Campo Smith](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bardonecchia-Hotels-Campo-Smith.h33283457.Hotel-Information) > > [Unique holiday home with private waterfalls and swimming pool right by your deck](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Diwan-Hotels-Only-Private-Guesthouse-With-Its-Own-Waterfalls-And-Swimming-Hole-By-Your-Deck.h29486623.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Parking in Golders Green](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Golders-Green-London-Hotels-Hotel-With-Free-Parking.0-n6144890-0-thotelwithfreeparking.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Old Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Old-Town-Hotels.0-l6128179-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Cleckheaton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cleckheaton-Hotels.d6084785.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [travelodgeuk Hotels in Hoddesdon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hoddesdon-Hotels-Travelodge-UK.0-0-d6347450--bTravelodgeUK.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Bella Vida Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Orlando-Hotels-Bella-Vida-Resort.h14592479.Hotel-Information) > > [Lake Front Hotel Brenzone](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brenzone-Sul-Garda-Hotels-Boutique-Hotel-Brenzone.h919411.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Runaway Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Runaway-Bay-Hotels.d9336.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Historic Hotels in Moscow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Moscow-Hotels-Historic-Hotel.0-0-d178289-tHistoricHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Coral Beach Resort by Atlantica](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Trairi-Hotels-The-Coral-Beach-Resort-By-Atlantica.h31873624.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Valemount](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valemount-Hotels.d6139230.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Family Selection At Grand Palladium Kantenah Resort & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kantenah-Hotels-Family-Selection-At-Grand-Palladium-Kantenah-Resort-Spa.h95893460.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cumberland, London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Cumberland.h21659.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott San Jose Aurola](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Jose-Hotels-Delta-Hotels-By-Marriott-San-Jose-Aurola.h4791.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from San Jose, CA (SJC-Norman Y.
