Sonesta Select San Jose Airport
They said breakfast ends at 10 am but wasn’t serving any at 9am. Claims no smoking but the hotel room smelled like straight cigarettes. Didn’t let us know we had to pay a $125 deposit

The Ameswell Hotel
Ivy at the front desk was extremely kind and helpful. When I was sick she sent tea up to the room without me asking. Very good service, and I will be staying there again when I am back in the SV.
