Cupertino Hotel

first the good part. The staff is very nice and try to be helpful. The location is also convenient, right off the 280 freeway. now the bad part (unfortunately). First, be careful walking to the shopping center nearby to eat something. I got some food and walking back around 8pm, a guy tried to rob me as the parking lot is dark. I would have thought Cupertino (home of Apple) is safe but apparently not. I wouldn't let my wife walk outside alone near this hotel. Besides that, there are other things to know. The free breakfast is horrible, and I wouldn't eat that for fear of getting sick. The building itself is old and not cared for. The photos of the building are very misleading. Dirty, dimly lit, and the hallways were freezing (they have outdoor hallways). That lead to my biggest shock, which was to find a mouse in our bathroom! Actually, my wife got up in the morning to use the bathroom and she shrieked at seeing the mouse run around when the lights came on. What was disappointing however, was the hotel's response. We called the front desk at 7am and the guy was nice, but was UNABLE TO HELP BECAUSE HOUSEKEEPING WASN'T AVAILABLE UNTIL 9AM! So we were stuck without a bathroom and worried the mouse will crawl under the bathroom door into the bedroom. That about sums up this hotel. Good staff but it's the same as a Motel 6 but 2x the price.

Location was great. Was disappointed that the gym advertised as "available off site" was inaccessible to me as it was 2 miles away and I didn't have a car.

Overall, it is a decent hotel. The only problem is the furnitures - they are kind of old and may need renovation
