The hotel is an older hotel in downtown San Jose. Parking is a daily rate of $49 however across the street there is a public parking lot for $23 a day. The hotel does not have a very good 'drop' spot for luggage or large groups, we stood in the street with traffic to drop off luggage or the alternative is to carry everything from a parking lot in the city to the hotel. As an older hotel the water went out one day we were there, no pressure and only a trickle of cold water. We requested an extra blanket and pillow and never got it. The biggest complaint, as a Westin, we did not have a Heavenly bed, pillow or comforter. the bed was not comfortable, and neither were the sheets, pillows (old). there were several other hotels that were nicer within walking distance.
