Holiday Inn San Jose - Silicon Valley

There wasn’t very much to like to be honest. It was across from 7 Eleven which was convenient.

The parking lot was cramped and on the second night stay had to park in the red zone (because we were paying guests) due to the lot being full because of an event going on. The toilet backed up and the water also smelled sour or just the whole room to be honest and the best part was getting woke up at 7:30am on a SATURDAY to jack hammers and concrete boulders getting dumped into bins because of construction they’re doing on the building. I understand deadlines have to be met etc. as all jobs do, but to be woken up in that fashion especially when you planned on getting rest isn’t very considerate for any paying guest. I was on the seventh floor too so I can’t imagine the room right by the work being done and it continued all day even when I finally decided to leave the room around 1:30ish. Also the door to the bathroom was some sliding Japanese style door that left about a one inch gap between the wall and the edge of the door leaving no privacy whatsoever. Do better or charge less or better yet warn people that they may get woke up at 7am whether they planned on it or not!

It is being reovated and this is not clear - they should offer a discount for the disruption

The staff was friendly and that was a huge plus.

It was not disclose when booking that this place is under construction. It will look amazing when finished, but until then it is very run down. The rooms are not clean. I will look forward to staying here again after April when things are hopefully much better.
