This hotel is now called The Convention Center Inn and Suites. We stayed one night to attend an event at the SAP center. The rates were very reasonable and the rooms are CLEAN. One thing that I really liked is that the owner works there and he takes pride in his place. I felt safe and secure in this cute place. We would definitely stay there again. read more

The front desk person had a great sense of humor, very patient, professionalism. Recommended San Pedro square for food and cocktails. Gave excellent directions to the liquor store. Once inside the room I liked how all the furniture matched. Bigger tv for the bedroom and a smaller tv for the seating area. Never seen that before. Great idea. Loved the long mirror on the wall. Us ladies need to see how we look from head to toe. Omg restroom, tub and walls were super clean. The tub was shiny. I like rooms where the sink is not in the same room as the toilet and this one had it. The exterior look of the inn was eh okay but once you get inside to the rooms is a whole different story. I recommend it here read more

Stayed here last weekend. Very clean very nice and big comfortable bed. The shower was great the area was fine as well. Coffee shop right by it which was great! The customer service was great! The man who helped us was very nice. I would definitely stay here again. read more

This hotel is now called The Convention Center Inn and Suites. I was traveling for work. The room was super clean and comfortable. The staff was genial and supportive. Would stay again if I'm ever in San Jose. read more

What a surprise. Don't let the exterior fool you. They are remodeling from the inside out. Our room was beautiful, new, and spotlessly clean. The parking is a bit tight but that is the only thing remotely negative I could say. The room was modern and well appointed - iron, complimentary bottled water, fridge, nice toiletries, and a microwave. The room even had a little sitting area with a desk and comfy chair. The paint, new carpet and tile work were very nice - especially the bathroom which looked like a magazine "after" shot. The reasonable price got my attention but I'd stay here again for the beautiful room read more

I stayed here for 3 nights last week, and I enjoyed my stay. The new name for this hotel is the Convention Center Inn and Suites. The staff was accommodating, the location is centrally located, and the free parking was appreciated. I found the courtyard charming and loved the tiger print carpet. The room was clean, the price was affordable, and I would stay here again. read more

Our stay here was great. Staff was friendly and really helpful with issues with bags and parking and went out of their way to help us. The rooms were really clean and looked brand new. Convention center and downtown distance were perfect. Would come back again. read more

This review is for the Convention Center Inn and Suites. If I could give this hotel 0 stars I absolutely would. DO NOT STAY HERE. After my girlfriends paid EXTRA for two more people to not even stay the night, just get to get ready for our girls night out, the man in charge had the audacity to disable their keycards so they could not get into their room. After a night of the drinking and dancing my girlfriends were told they had to pack and leave at 2 in the morning!!!! This led to everyone having to drive home when they shouldn't have due to a terrible business owner. This place should not be an establishment as that would NEVER happen at a proper hotel. 0 STARS!!! Also just tried to call and ensure that they received a refund but before I could state that, lovely guy named NICK hung up on me. read more

3 stars for undoubtedly being the cheapest place to stay within easy walking distance of the convention center, plus being perfectly clean and bug-free, which is ultimately the most important thing in a hotel. Additionally, every room has a fridge and a microwave, which is even more appealing for cheap bastards like me. There's a Safeway and a bunch of interesting ethnic groceries within a couple of blocks. The decor within the rooms is pretty cheesy, but again, it's clean. This hotel is in the old outdoor motel style, which means that your room door and one of your room windows will open directly onto a central open courtyard, with all the other hotel guests filing past. For me personally, this is a huge annoyance, because it meant I only felt secure with the curtain and window closed. I think the concerns about this being in "a bad part of town" are overblown, and the seedy exterior appearance of the motel is throwing people off. Also, there are clearly some families who live semi-permanently at the hotel, which in my mind makes it safer. What's not overblown, though, is how unfriendly all the policies of the hotel are - needing a deposit (seriously?? -- also, thanks for the extra paperwork on my expense report), the level of interrogation you're subjected to on your first check-in, "no visitors allowed" (again, seriously??), etc. These things turned me off enough that I considered vowing to never return; but again, it's all about not paying too much and not getting bed bugs. read more

Townhouse Motel - Luckily, I've never traspassed in my life. - Hotels Near Me - San Jose, California

I'm going to be real honest with you, DON'T STAY HERE. I don't know why they charge per HEAD & this makes groups of 3 and more likely to be in a tight situation. I don't get why they have to ask who's staying? This place charges so much, but for why? Like remodeling the place won't change the fact that these "owners" are literally adding charges for so many ridiculous things. We only stayed for ONE night... and ended up paying 200+. Also they need to update their check-out time on traveling/hotel-booking sites because when we booked the hotel, the site said check out was BEFORE noon, because the day we were supposed to check out we got a knock on our door saying that check out was at 11am and that they might need to charge us extra for a late check out! Never again. read more

I booked a room here for my dad who came to the States for my wedding. He had told me kinda last minute that he would be attending so I frantically looked for affordable hotel/motels in and around San Jose. Everything was over $150+/night or booked up. I finally found this place on Hotels.com which looked pretty decent and affordable at $120/night AND free parking! This was a great find since my wedding was in Downtown San Jose. This hotel is a few blocks from the venue (Saint Claire Westin) so it was perfect. Free parking in DTSJ is a great find too (considering parking at Saint Claire was $39/night..). DO NOT expect anything WOW. When we pulled up, the place appeared very Shady Mcgrady. The lobby is very small. But the front desk clerk was VERY nice, accommodating, and friendly. The hotel itself was probably an apartment complex previously before being made into a motel. They have a center outdoor courtyard area surrounded by the hotel rooms. The rooms were a very decent size and clean but the smell of the cleaners they used was very strong as if to mask something.. I give it 3 stars since it is very average and nothing special, very reasonably priced, free parking, dirty on the outside but clean on the inside, and good front desk service. read more

Town House Motel is pretty nice and definitely worth the value. They were in the middle of renovating part of the building, so a little dusty and noisy during the day. I was very impressed with the modern remodeling of the rooms. It was very spacious, clean and comfortable. The building is a little old on the exterior, but I'm sure that will be updated soon. As far as the neighborhood, it's downtown San Jose. The typical older, depressed neighborhood from the 1940s and 1950s that never really was revitalized during an economic boom. Downtown San Jose is very bleak looking, granted it being "Silicon Valley" and part of the Bay Area and insane property values. The owner Nick was very helpful and courteous and very patient with extending our stay during the week. I highly recommend Townhouse Motel for the price point. read more

Do not stay here. We rented the two bedroom unit to attend our son's graduation from SJSU. There were 4 adults in our group, thus the need for the 2 King beds. It seems reasonable to me that in the case of needing a two bedroom, there would be accommodations made for a larger group than just a single room. Nope. First they informed us their parking was VERY limited, so the 2nd car with us would have to park on the street and would be fine as long as we moved it by 9am. The rooms were nice. They were clean. The beds were too firm and none of us slept well. It was also noisy because of the garages below us. We could hear our neighbors flush their toilet. The next morning we discovered there were only 2 towels provided to us. Called the office on my cell since there aren't phones in the room. No one answered. My husband had to shower, dress and go down to the office. We were on a strict time schedule because of the graduation so this was really inconvenient. When we finally headed out to our cars at 8am, there was a $45 parking ticket on our 2nd car. All of these issues added up to a giant pain in the ass. So much for starting our day off right! It's not easy to get me to write a bad review, but this place is not worth your time. read more

I paid 158.46 for 1 night and 2 guests along with a 100 dollar deposit. The owner kicked us out when he saw 2 additional people enter the room. The owner banged on the door, interrogated us, and then had the audacity to call the police on us, even though we told him we were leaving! My friends and I, told the police we didn't want any trouble; that we were just grouping up so we can go out to the bars. After a night of drinking, my friend and I return to the motel at 1:30am, only to find out that the owner went inside and took out all of our belongings and kicked us out. The worst part was he didn't even refund any of the money back! I had to go back to him on a separate date just to get the deposit back. The owner of townhouse motel tries to come off as a professional business owner, but honestly he's just an arrogant piece of shit! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE ITS A CHEAP FOR REASON 0 STARS!!!!!!!! read more

I LOVED this place. I needed a decent place to stay for one night for work and I'm so glad I chose it. There aren't really any amenities, so if you're looking for a full-service bar or restaurant, this is not your place. Me? I don't need that, so it worked out just fine. Location: great, close to freeways, easy to find Neighborhood: seemed a little sketchy Outside appearance: DEFINITELY needs work, but there is a remodel happening, so I'm sure that is in the works. Service: OUTSTANDING. Nick was personable, friendly and funny. Room: Amazing decoration upgrades. Very clean. A few things were lacking (hence the 4/5 stars); table lamps, phone, tissues (Kleenex or something). The pillows were kinda rough too, the bed was SO comfy but the pillows were hard (and cheap feeling). Walls: I know that I had neighbors on either side but I couldn't hear a thing. I will for sure stay here again! read more

I have never been afraid to stay somewhere. The area is close to the nice downtown but do NOT Be fooled. I thoroughly regret staying here. There are numerous other hotels in the area, they are less expensive and have beautiful lounge areas and are actual hotel like accommodations. I do not recommend this place. At all. One side of the building looks like it's a permanent residency for low income housing? The curtains are destroyed (this is not an exaggeration) with holes, dirt and possibly mold? I can't emphasis how scary and unsafe it looks and feels. The doors even have motives to take precaution and don't open the door for anyone. Run while you can. Please choose somewhere else. For your own sake it's not worth it. The bathroom was nicely remodeled.. The sheets had STAINS on them.. And the room from the inside looks vaguely like the photo. read more

I cant totally destroy this place and i guess if you drink enoghtnone of my complaints will bother you. the good: service was good - we asked for additional linens and they happened pronto. parking free and available tv fridge... the Bad. 1 creamer for coffee loud - on lombard st. thin walls ( we had mr snore living next door) THE UGLY there were a few ants on the floor the bed was pretty stiff but then again it was the cheapest available - read more

I made reservations through Hotels.com because the pictures of the room looked amazing. When I arrived, I was shocked at the look of the exterior of the building, looks like a "no tell motel". I waited for a women in front of me to check in and noticed the clerk took a copy of her drivers license and credit card. When I told them that taking a copy of my DL and credit card was a deal breaker, he said he needed it in order to credit me back the $100 deposit he was putting on my card, who puts $100 deposits on rooms these days? Needless to say, I did not see the onsite of the room. I went next door to the Ramada, which was $8 cheaper. NEVER ALLOW ANYONE TO PHOTOCOPY YOUR CREDIT CARD! read more

Do not stay here unless you want to be charged triple and then hung up on when you try to have the problem fixed. Not only is this place not worth what they charge per night, their staff is rude and incompetent. The receptionist told us when we arrived that our card did not go through and we needed to use another card and assured us the first card wasn't charged. Welp, it was, three times! When I tried to find out why they charged us three times the guy was rude and hung up on me. Never again using this trashy motel... read more

This is my second year staying here and as last year it was perfect. Stayed her to attend the fanima Con in San Jose convention center. Great place to stay if you got to go to the convention center also if you want to explore the town. Decently priced lots of room great looking bathroom. Very comfortable bed. The building is going to be repainted and slightly remodeled it seems hope he doesnt bring up the price to much lol. read more

This hotel is very dishonest. DO NOT STAY HERE. The owner has given me a special rate, so I send all my employee to stay at his hotel. When my employee checked out, he charged them 2 times the price. I didn't know until the next day that he charged over $200 for a night. For that price, they could've stayed at a much nicer hotel. When my employee booked the room, he didn't mention it's over $200 a night, so when I find out he didn't honor the rate I was given, I ask for a refund, he said, no, your company will reimburse you anyways. So he knew he over charge, but hoping I won't find out. Not to mention, the sheets and the rooms are not even clean. If you have pass by the place, you know this place is not worth $200/night. Even Motel6 is better. I'd recommend MOTEL6 any time over this dishonest place. read more

I want to give it 5 stars... but... LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION is so important!!! That being said, I normally stay at very high end hotels. This was a last minute, late night check in, and I didn't know what I was getting myself into. I had court in the early morning. When I arrived in town at 11pm, I was so scared to park my car. No joke! The neighborhood is sketch. It is centrally located SJ, 1 mile from the courthouse. Right next to the Fairmont Hotel, without the valet, security, and all it's bells/whistles. Parking is a small private lot inside the lot. It's tight, but seemed to fit all the cars. I was pleasantly surprised with the condition of the room. Newly renovated. Clean, and quite. I requested a late checkout, and the owner/manager kindly granted a 1pm checkout which turned out I didn't need. Courthouse was only minutes away in the morning with no heavy traffic- only taking 10 minutes max! Talk about a pleasant surprise! Had a huge king bed, mini-fridge, and microwave. Could have used beggar towels... other than that... nice stay. read more

Stayed here during a conference and it was great! The owner, Nick took care of me constantly and made sure I had what I needed, even though email. The room itself was remodeled and done very well. The interior was modern and included a fridge and microwave. I had a king-size bed and all the linens were very clean. I had a few hiccups with wifi and key card but those were both taken care of in a timely manner. At the end of the day, Nick had great manners and was very pleasant to talk to. Great sense of humor and smiles all around. I saw him helping another customer find another hotel last minute since the customer hadn't booked anytting, making calls to all the other lodging around and finding pricing. Thanks for a great week! read more

This review is based solely on the phone conversation in just had with the guy what answered the phone. He was rude, unintelligible and straight hung up on me. I asked for a booking 60 days away and was told they don't make bookings that far out. When I asked for the rates, I was told that I should call back later. When I asked when I should call back, I was hung up on. I wish I had more hands so I could give this place 4 thumbs down. Zero Stars read more

Rooms and customer service were great. The location is perfect too, we walked one block over and there were a ton of great bars and restaurants. The free parking was great and they have covered parking which was nice too, I saw cameras everywhere as well. Overall it was a great stay, I would definitely come back. read more

Beautifully remodeled rooms. Large with great updates. Close to great eating establishments. One star taken off for the exterior aesthetics.

I've been in many motels and felt a cold icey chill when it comes to staff. Townhouse isn't that way. Very kind hearted devoted strong cultured people run this motel. The youthful viverence that radiates from there being is A+. Quick professional cleaners and all around the clock care. I rested peacefully in luxury knowing that studious eyes were combing the perimeter and using cameras to keep out putrid verminous characters that live in the creeks surrounding our freeways. Peaceful and surean conditions I would recommend Townhouse motel to anyone in search. read more

Now called CONVENTION CENTER INN & SUITES. Fully renovated. I had a great stay. I was in town for some events at the convention center and all other hotels were like 3 times as much. It's only about 2 blocks away and an easy and safe walk. It's not a chain hotel, but don't be fooled: room was large, clean, modern, well lit, and had USB ports on both sides of the bed, along with the power outlets. A small work table and little sitting "cove". Bathroom was clean and modern, the heater was quiet (as was the hotel overall), and everything worked as expected. Plenty of parking in their lot. I'd definitely stay there again. read more

Let me start with saying that I read all previous reviews and still decided to book this place because of the price and closeness to downtown. Overall the room was great, exactly like the picture. Outside needs some work but that doesn't really matter when you're sleeping inside. Some reviews said it was scary and unsafe and let me tell you it is 100% not! There's cars driving by constantly and cameras everywhere! I gave 3 stars because when I checked in I noticed there was construction going on which I wasn't aware of. It's a short term issue which is only gonna bring nicer rooms so I didn't mind that much until they started working at 8 am which is inconvenient if you're going to a concert and coming home at 3 a.m. Another reason I didn't give 5 starts was because I felt to monitored. A previous review stated they were kicked out when they had friends over; keeping that in mind when I had 2 friends coming over I went downstairs and let the owner know. He asked alot of questions like when they were coming and for how long. Once my friends got there they told me they got asked a bunch of questions too which I think is weird. If I'm paying to stay somewhere and want to group up with friends before we leave to a concert I shouldn't be scared to get kicked out. The guy was nice about it but I felt like I had to kiss up way to much. Overall I would stay here again if the construction is finished. read more

Super shady!!! This hotel is now called Convention Center Inn and Suites. Do NOT ever stay at this hotel. They will lie to your face, and then try to backtrack. They will take your money, and play games. When I asked for the manager, I got a card with his name on it that stated manager, but then when I spoke with the manager listed on this card, he said he was not the manager and that I needed to wait for the actual manager. When the actual manager showed up, he stated the other gentleman was the owner of the hotel. He also stated that when I was asking for the manager the day before, he was in the back room listening to me ask for him, and he did not at that time come out. These people are liars, cheats, have 0 integrity, and are immoral. I now have a dispute with my bank regarding the double charge for this shitty ass room that they claim they have refunded me, but have not. Also, the showers suck!!!! read more

DO NOT STAY HERE. the entire time i had stayed there ( stayed a total of 3 nights ) there was construction going on the entire time, we were not informed of the construction prior to our stay either. It was very very loud, and would start at about 7am EVERY morning. Considering the fact that i was getting back to my hotel room at about 2am from a concert every night, it was very frustrating. I had also asked for extra towels one day and it had taken over an hour for me to receive them.. considering the fact that there is probably about 20 rooms total, and at least 5 of them were under construction, and i had also noticed that at least 3 of them were being used as what it looked liked to be a "permanent living situation," it most definitely should not have taken that long for me to receive the towels. Also, one morning I was woken up to a group of people that had stayed the night before yelling at the owner for awful service and overcharging, and all the owner did was ignore them while they were yelling. The yelling is what I woke up to considering the fact the one sided argument occurred at 8am, the owner did not even attempt to try to calm the people down or talk to them to quite down in consideration of the other guests. I was also OVER CHARGED 120 dollars for "having extra people" in my room, when in reality the owner had just thought that because 2 extra friends came after the concert each day just to wait for their ride since it was raining. I called the owner to say that the extra charge was a mistake, yet he claims to have proof that 2 extra people were there in my room ALL DAY even when i wasn't even there ALL DAY considering the fact that the concert was an all day thing as well. When I called he would not let me talk and just kept on yelling that he "had proof" and hung up and wouldn't answer any of my phone calls after that. So since I can't get my money back because they refuse any way of contact from me, I guess this review is the most that I can do. With all the other bad reviews I have read, I'm going to just assume that the owner is in the hole financially from all this construction and renovation that he will do ANYTHING ( including making up stories ) just to get any extra money that he can from his guests. hope this review is helpful and will keep people away because it is NOT worth it. read more

Don't ever stay here. The owner is extremely rude & disrespectful. Once he interrupted me while bathing, pounding on the door. I answered thinking it must be an emergency. Upon opening the door he demanded I let the housekeeper in. Another time he was yelling at me about paying the bill when it was paid, all he was waiting for was a fax to approve the credit card. He even threatened to call the police. I'd rather sleep on the street than be treated this way. read more
