Perfect downtown location
Very clean and comfortable. The only negative was not understanding how to check-in once I arrived and the property is heavily scented in the public spaces, which depending on your preference this might not be a negative.

Everything good except for the parking.
Everything was perfect, except for the parking. The hotel does not provide parking so you either have to walk down the block into a public parking garage, with no In-N-Out privileges, or take your chances and park on the street alongside an army of homeless.

MyHotel is a unique new hotel concept that occupies new condo properties as hotel room use until they are sold. This means the rooms and furniture are barely used.

We had a 2 bedroom condo in a brand new tower in downtown San Jose. The place was clean and beautiful with great views. I would definitely stay here again. The only weird thing is that there is no parking zone to unload your luggage, and the check in was on the 7th floor of the building.
