Booked a room with window and private bath. Checked in paid and was taken to a small room with no window and shared bath. I have stayed at the Pacande multiple times over 15 years and have never been treated this way. Pacande has changed in the last couple years for the worse. Will not recommend or stay here any more. Better hotels are a available for same price in the area.

I wouldn’t recommend for more than one night. The white comforter was dirty from both beds. Loud night noise coming from the kitchen and also from street. Location is sketchy at night good food options nearby.

Nice little place to stay for a few days while exploring San Jose. We called it our treehouse. Very close to everything, staff is very kind and helpful. Great bakery just around the corner to pick up amazing goodies. Lovely breakfast at the hotel in the am. They will arrange a shuttle to and from the airport for you. $20USD for our group of 5. $10USD for the way back to the airport!the beds were clean. The only complaint I do have is that our bathroom didn’t feel clean at all. Otherwise, we loved it.

For the price and the location, this place is just average. It is only a ten minute Uber ride or 8.oo by red taxi. I liked staying here because it was so close to the airport and only a 7 minute taxi back to the rental car area to get a car. The breakfast was good and the staff are all kind, but the area around here is kind of sketchy. There are bars on all the windows and it makes one feel unsafe, but this hotel only has one way to get in, and they keep it secure. We felt safe here once inside, but walking around outside was done with caution, but then again, your in San Jose, so everywhere feels sketchy.
