Hotel De Anza
Courteous staff, clean room. Hotel was under renovations, so certain services and amenities were unavailable (hence the 4 star instead of 5 star rating). Overall, good experience

Four Points by Sheraton San Jose Downtown
Hotel staff is great (so friendly and helpful) and the location is fantastic. The room is just ok. It was clean but we found the mattress to be stiff and lumpy. DO NOT eat at the attached restaurant (Mosaic). Awful food and even worse service.
