The room I was assigned had high frequency warning signs inside the closet ceiling that said special protective gear required beyond that access point. It was an access point to the roof. Had I known that was the case I would have Nvr booked at that place. Also, the white sheets had dark stains on them. Didn’t stay in the room for longer than 5 min. Got a partial refund, not full refund, even after speaking with several Expedia reps.

I had a fairly good experience at the Wafer 450, a small motel located in Santa Clara. The neighborhood seemed safe, and within walking distance of a few chain restaurants such as El Pollo Loco. The motel is conveniently located off a major Santa Clara road (El Camino Real), and within a few miles away from San Jose Airport. The bedroom was clean, the furnishings simple. The stay price was affordable, the room amenities included a HDTV, WiFi, and included a mini fridge. There was a simple wall-mounted heater/AC unit, which is needed for the cold winters in Santa Clara. Very satisfied with my stay which went smoothly, but nothing really stood out to make it a 5-star exceptional experience.
