“For a budget traveler, this place prioritizes location and security; it's incredibly central, granting easy access to San Jose's core and public transport. While basic and somewhat worn, the rooms provide private space at a dorm's price, and cleanliness is maintained in essential areas. A practical choice where value outweighs frills.”
