“Comfy and Relaxed”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 September 2011

I've stayed at a few Hotels and I must say the people here are very curtious. The rooms are clean and the the paint color is very home like. The suite I stayed in had a fabulous Jacuzzi tub, which was very relaxing-jets a little loud but wonderful to lay back with your partner and close your eyes for a while. The maids are nice and always have a smile on their face. The owner at the front desk is way cool and doesn't hound you when check-out times has passed. Not to mention saw a few friends I haven't seen in years here. I recommend if you stay here-Stay in a Suite.

Stayed September 2011, travelled solo

“not a great checkin experience”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 August 2011

I guess as a woman, when I arrive at a motel late at night and they make me give my credit card thru a slot in the window, I wondered why they couldn't let me in the lobby, which was right there....
the whole place looked better in the daylight, but at night seemed a little scary, standing outside...
the room was very standard motel, 2 queens, reasonably clean, thin towels... cheap price. I wouldn't call it an airport motel as it is at least 6 miles from airport... (which in san jose traffic can be alot).
the coffee in the morning was decent.

“Not great but not deserved of such poor reviews”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 August 2011

To refer to this hotel as an "airport" hotel really is a stretch. That being said, while not worthy of a 5 star review, the 70 dollar room was clean and did the trick for a quick Friday night stay. Other than an Indian restaurant across the street that closes up early, surrounding restaurants are at a minimum. I was able to walk about 1/2 mile to a Chinese place that was open at 11pm. This Inn has no frills. Just a clean bed with a tv and shower. If you are wanting more this is not the place for you.

“Dungeons and Dragons”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 July 2011

For starters this hotel is not an airport hotel as most airport hotels are pretty closeby - within 5 to 10min by car. This hotel is in Milpitas which is quite a bit away (20 to 30min) from San Jose International airport. Obviously these hotel owners advertize themselves as an airport hotel to attract customers. I stayed here one night, and thank God it was only one night, for it felt like I was in a dungeon - I could not sleep at all for the room was damp, bad mildew smell and infested with flies. The selection of restaurants closeby is next to zero - only an Indian restaurant. I chose to come here because I generally found America Best Value Inn hotels to be pretty good - I suppose there is always one rotten egg in the basket.

“Don't trust the room pictures”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 June 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I always check out reviews and hotel pics before staying anywhere. Most of the reviews weren’t great but the pics looked good so we booked it through Expedia hotel and car combo. We will never be going back. It is an old hotel that they have updated with tangerine and white paint. Pros: good location, low cost, room has fridge, microwave, iron & board, hair dryer, coffee maker, new comforter, plenty of hot water, shower curtain that is curved out, some covered parking available on north end, continental breakfast—if you like prepackaged tiny sweet rolls and nothing else. Cons: Small room, king size bed was a queen size, extremely tiny and flat pillows, very uncomfortable bed, beat up furniture, single tall and narrow dresser with drawers that stuck, carpet that stuck to your feet, old TV, only 4 hangers, original sink with spider vein cracks in it, original tub with built in anti slip mat that is gray and peeling, noisy combo bath fan/light on one switch sounds like a jet taking off, paper thin and tiny towels, dirty stained tile bath floors, no clock, no individual soap or shampoo—they have public restroom type dispensers on the wall, toilet is public restroom type—elongated bowl with split seat. A few items that were of great concern because of the danger they presented—smoke detector had been removed from ceiling—the backing was there but the unit was gone. Also we came back one evening to find the “Maid Service requested” hanger still on the outside door. They had cleaned the room but left the hanger—showing that nobody was in the room for the entire day. We stayed 4 nights and it was full every night, so if you don’t mind all the cons I mentioned and are looking for a low cost place to stay you might not mind it. But this will be our first and last experience with America’s great value Inn.
