My husband and I stayed here for one night to go California's Great America theme park. It was decently close to the theme park. The inn was clean and comfortable. My only complaints are that the air conditioning made a weird sound and the door to the bathroom didn't close all the way. The man who checked us out the following morning was such a sweet man. He was very smiley, friendly, personable, he told my husband what a nice name he had and he shook our hands and I told him my name also. He alone deserves a 10/5 rating. I am happy that I stayed there and would be happy to stay there again and overall I would recommend.

My husband and I stayed here for two nights. The Grandson, Daniel, checked us in. He was very pleasant and made us feel really welcome. The location is awesome. Bus 22 stops right at the door. I counted about 7 eating places across the street, and Safeway was a five min. walk. The RENOVATED room was better than we expected. It was spotlessly cleaned, the shower and vanity looked new. We appreciated the hard surface floor instead of carpet. As this is an older building, the floor will creak, so ask for a room on the second floor. The fridge and microwave looked new and worked well. There is no maid service if you stay more than one night, but the housekeeping gave us all new towels, soap shampoo and even took away our garbage! Wow, we were impressed! on the last morning we got to meet Danielle's grandfather, who was also super nice! Danielle went out of his way on our last morning to assist us after we checked out. The management here is top notch. Don't hesitate to book the Sterling Inn.

Pros:- convenient - literally at the airport, a 5-min drive to the other side. Restaurants and coffee literally across the street - inexpensive - safe - clean- functionalCons:- proprietor was lovely and welcoming - instead of fixing the sink, they put a bucket under it to catch the drips, which happened every time I turned the sink on- bathroom light didn’t work. Luckily it was sunny when I was showering so the sun did the work - scratchy sheets- blowing leaves in front of the door at 8am. A reasonable time for 9-5 workers to be awake, but if you’re from another time zone, unpleasant - WiFi kinda-sorta worked. My phone was definitely faster when it WASN’T connected to it

Simple but very nice; updated tile, bathroom. Kept in very good condition. Very comfortable bed with 2 choices of pillows - firm and extra firm. Very near Santa Clara Univ (I walked), also near San Jose airport (10 minutes). The owner/manager was especially thoughtful and helpful. I'll stay there again next time!

Nice and clean motel. I did the 2 mile walk to downtown San Jose and it was mostly a pleasant route. I heard some noise from the upstairs occupants, but otherwise was a quiet property. Bathroom had a large walk-in shower. Friendly greeting at check in and out. Recommended if you are looking for an affordable option relatively close to downtown or the airport.
