“Good Renovations”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 31, 2013

I've recently stayed at this hotel for a trade show in Santa Clara. There are currently works going on at the hotel but nothing that actually disturbs you during the day at all.
The room was clean, well laid out and you had a good amount of extras in the room. Some hotels you have to ask for an iron and ironing board but this was in the wardrobe, they had a safe, fridge and coffee machine in the room.
Lots of big fluffy pillows and fluffy towels in the bathroom.
We had one day of no hot water but once reported it was fixed whilst we had breakfast. I would go back to this hotel again.
This was booked through hotwire so we didn't pay full price for this hotel and if I went back again i'd book through hotwire rather then the hotel as it can be a little pricy.

Dear DawnM1982,

We are thrilled to know that you thoroughly enjoyed your stay with us here in San Jose while attending a trade show. We know you have many choices in the area and we are glad that you got to experience our newly renovated hotel. Thank you for taking the time to give our future travelers a little insight into your stay.

Our new rooms have really received some amazing feedback from all of our guests and it sounds like you really enjoyed them as well. The new rooms are only part of the major renovation were are just finishing up. We have also remodeled the entire lobby and breakfast room, added elevators in each building, added a full bar called Naki's, and we are about to get started on a complete redesign of the entire landscape; just to name a few. We hope that you will be back soon to see all the new features we have added. Take care and safe travels!

Sincerely,

Ryan DeLong
General Manager

“We'll be back”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 27, 2013

Looked like standard two-story motel from outside, but newly renovated room was REALLY nice. Friendliness and helpfulness of staff was what I would expect from much higher priced hotel, they were great. We liked that there is hot cocoa, coffee, and tea available at all times in the lobby, and that there is a lounge area with bartender open in the evening. Breakfast was good (do-it-yourself waffles, eggs, biscuits & gravy, etc), but they need to do a better job of keeping the egg dishes hot. VERY close to airport.

Dear La Quinta traveler,

We are so glad to hear how much you loved the newly renovated rooms. It makes us very happy to know that we are meeting and exceeding our guests expectations.

We really pride ourselves in delivering 5 star service at a 3 star hotel and I am glad that you noticed our efforts. We are very proud of the interior renovations and are just as excited for the upgrades that are about to happen to the exterior of the property. Over the next few weeks we will begin a complete redesign of our landscape and parking lot. The upgrades will really make the property pop. We hope you get a chance to come back soon so you can see what we have done. I appreciate you bringing up the point that the eggs at breakfast were not as hot as you would like so that I can address this with my breakfast staff and get it taken care of. Thank you again for your time that it took to give us some feedback and we wish you safe travels.

Sincerely,

Ryan DeLong

“Great stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 25, 2013 via mobile

What a great place, recently remodeled and expertly done! Freshly painted, newly furnished with the best tech features ever! Wifi that really works in your room, Direct TV DVR and a 1080p flatscreen TV! iPhone charger, full charging station with desk and work lamp. Breakfast is a full hot breakfast self serve but with a great dining room. King sized beds available and fresh clean linens, microwave, refrig, Keurig coffee maker in the room, just the greatest accomodations! Near the airport but hardly heard the planes due to good insulation and double glass windows. Most rooms have completed renovation and the grounds will be updated next! The best hotel room I have ever been in!

Dear OkayJan,

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and thorough description of your stay with us. I don't think that I could have described it better myself. It is always great to hear how much our guests appreciate all that we have done during our renovation, even the little things that you noticed.

Over the last 15 months we have really changed this entire property around and I thank you for taking notice. We are now moving on to the exterior of the hotel and beginning our complete redesign of the landscaping. The landscaping plan on paper looks amazing and I can't wait to see the final product. I hope that you will be back with us soon so you can enjoy it as well. Thank you again for the feedback and we wish you safe travels.

Sincerely,

Ryan DeLong

“"LUCKY FIND"”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 24, 2013

On our travels to San Jose to see the Winchester House we missed the last tour decided to go to San Francisco. After a quick visit we headed back to San Jose. We had another place in mind but after pulling up there it looked a little shady. We drove in the rain looking for a place to rest after being on the road all day we found this Gem. I was a little Leary because of the planes flying over head from the near by air port, but once we got into our comfortable room we did not hear a thing. It was clean, check in was easy, and the staff were helpful. Breakfast was good, and they hooked us up with tickets to the Winchester House. We had a good restful night. Would I stay here again you bet!

Room Tip: Rooms came with a micro/refrig/hair dryer. Beds were comfy! We were close to the Winchester House w...

Dear ida r,

Thank you so much for your wonderful review of our property. We are happy that you were able to find us through the rain. We are definitely thrilled to be your "lucky find"! It is great to hear you were able to take advantage of our reduced price tickets and room package for the Winchester Mystery House.

We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the extra ammenties in the room including the refrigerator and microwave. We want to make the hotel room feel like a home away from home and it seems that the bed was for you!

Thank you again for taking the time to review our property and we look forward to seeing you during your next trip to San Jose!

“Deceiving”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 24, 2013 via mobile

When we drove up we were a little worried but that waned quickly. The renovated rooms are very nice. Although they were a little small, we will return. The bar was nice as well. The only drawback is the only nearby food is Burger King .

Dear Agfire,

Thank you for taking the time to review our hotel. We are always so pleased to get feedback on how our guests' experience went. It is always wonderful to hear when people enjoy our rooms and the recent addition of Naki's Lounge.

As far as the exterior of our building goes, we do understand that it is a little decieving at times. We have spent just over a year renovating the interior of our building and we are going to be turning our attention to the exterior. We will be updating the landscaping in a major way and adding a walking path and fountain. Our hopes are to have our exterior be just as impressive as our interior.

Thank you again for your feedback and we hope to see you again soon.

Sincerely,

Rachel Rohrenbach
