Hayes Mansion, San Jose - Curio Collection by Hilton
Beautiful hotel. Arrived late right a restaurant closing time, they accommodated us and we were able to get a togo meal. Definitely starts a stay with a smile. After a great night's sleep had a good breakfast and walked the grounds. Nothing disappointing. I would stay here again.
