MadhaviRating, 5 stars8 months ago
We had an absolutely delightful stay at this Airbnb property. The host was incredibly welcoming and helpful from the moment we arrived. They were quick to respond to any questions we had and went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. The house itself was immaculate. It was clean, well- maintained, and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was fully equipped, which made preparing meals a breeze. The Wi-Fi was fast and reliable , which was a huge plus along with the sun room which we used as our office. I thoroughly enjoyed the unique charm of the house and the surrounding area.

🌟Cheerful 2B2B in prime location 🌲Redwood Pl Apt 3

AshleyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Rainee's place was exactly as described. My co-worker and I stayed here for a few nights during a work trip. Parking in the gated area was great, but finding a spot on the street was difficult after 6pm. We didn't use the kitchen but it was well-equipped and nice to have. The beds were comfortable and cozy. We had some issues with the heat during a cold spell in the area but Rainee responded fast with solutions. Would definitely stay again if I'm back there for work.

Our 2nd booking with this listing. It meets all expectations. Very clean. Anything needed for our stay was available. A well stocked kitchen was perfect for our meal preps. The super hosts have a generous welcome basket that was wonderful for our later arrival quick snacks. The hosts, Stanley and Virginia, are quick responders to any of our inquiries.

Townhouse Studio #1

MaiLyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Jim's instructions for self-checkin and parking was easy to follow. Everything was clean. The location was right around the corner from a family member's home as well as a short walking distance to downtown Mountain View. The heater on the wall was great for keeping us warm on the chili nights. Everything in the kitchen worked well (stove, refrigerator, sink) and was clean upon arrival. There was no discrepancy between the pictures/descriptions and the actual rental unit. Although there was a bus stop outside the window, it is fairly quiet between about 10pm and 8am so getting a quiet night's sleep was no problem. I would stay there again b/c of the proximity to both downtown Mountain View and family. It's a great location and Jim is a friendly, welcoming host!

DeniseRating, 5 stars5 days ago
Had a 5-day pleasant stay at Summer's place for work purposes. The surrounding neighborhood was busy but didn't disturb us too much. The bnb was well stocked with essentials, perfect for a stay like ours. BTW, a 15 minute walk or a 3 minute drive will take you to a nearby bagel place -- so good! I'd love to come back here and book again if my work calls for it. Thank you!

San Jose, Downtown, Cozy Craftsman Duplex

GregRating, 5 stars4 days ago
This 1918 craftsman home was just what I needed for a week long getaway. It had all the charm of an older home and functionality of what we come to expect in our modern age. Alicia was very helpful with parking and even offered her private driveway when street parking became a problem. She was also very helpful with negotiating with Airbnb for a one day credit when I decided to changemy stay duration. I love the small one bedroom apartment feel and the furnishings were very eclectic as well.

Walk to Santana Row + Valley Fair | 6min drive SJC

MarleeRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Flying into San Jose for a wedding at Santana Row, this was the perfect place to stay. After arriving, it was so nice to have space to get ready and only need to walk 12 minutes. Also, Thao was very communicative about details when getting close to arriving. I also appreciated that the door code was clearly set for the stay and not kept the same for years.
