About this property
Iconic 2BR Bungalow • Short Walk to SJSU + Parking
About this space
Iconic 2BR Spanish Revival bungalow (Structure of Merit) a short walk to SJSU & downtown. Modern, surprisingly spacious interior with a huge TV, super-comfy beds and fluffy pillows, washer/dryer, and business-class Wi-Fi 6. Dedicated 2-car parking, plus an accessible spot right out front. Steps to a late-night taco truck and great Mexican food. Minutes to Caltrain, SJC, Convention Center, SAP Center & Levi’s, with quick access to I-280/87/101. Swift self-check-in-message anytime.
The space
Step into a piece of San Jose history; an older home that feels modern inside and is more spacious than expected. The bungalow blends classic Spanish charm with thoughtful updates:
- Fully stocked kitchen and formal dining room
- Cozy living room with authentic mid-century touches and a huge smart TV
- Two elegant bedrooms, each with a queen bed and extra-fluffy pillows
- Twin-size pullout ottoman in the living room for an additional guest
- Dedicated laundry room and blazing-fast mesh Wi-Fi 6
Fresh linens, toiletries, and essentials are provided, and the home is professionally cleaned before every stay.
Parking
Dedicated on-site parking (easy in/out).
Additionally, public disability/handicap spot directly in front of the house (first-come, first-served)
Check-in
Swift, simple self check-in via lockbox. Please confirm your reservation and arrival time in advance; if you’re arriving late, message us; if we’re asleep we’ll reply first thing.
Security & notes
For your safety, the exterior is monitored by 24/7 cameras covering the driveway/parking, front entrance, and perimeter walkways. No cameras inside or in private spaces. Please keep your guest count accurate and update us via the Vrbo app if it changes.
The entrance to the unfinished basement (next to the laundry room) is locked for safety.
Other things to note
Please note that we have a guest suite located in the back of the house with a completely separate entrance.
For our pet owners, please bring your pets for a walk instead of potty in the front of the house. The pee will kills the plants’ roots, we also don’t want to have other guests accidentally step into the poop. To be a good neighbor, please pick up after them whenever they go.
We are proud of creating memories for our guests, so you are welcome to host a small get together if you let us know in advanced. Since all of our neighbors have our contact info, please messaged us exactly how many people will be visiting and staying in advanced and respect the quiet hours between 10:00pm to 8:00am.
Additionally, please clean up and take away the trash after to prevent overflowing our trash can. We reserve the right to charge additional cleaning fee or excess trash if we have too much trash too early (Mon is our trash pick up), we need to physically take the trash out to dump and pay additional fees! DO NOT put trash in the recycle bin, they will refuse to pick up our trash!
Please keep in mind, we are located on a busy commercial area within walking distance to San Jose University, so there are potential noises due to lots of foot / car traffic.

About the host
Hosted by Chris

I’m Chris, engineer by trade, and host. I love making travel easy: spotless spaces, smart touches, and hyper-local tips for food, coffee, and hikes. I respond fast, respect your privacy, and design each stay with an engineer’s eye for safety and comfort. Whether you’re here for work at the tech campuses or a weekend in the South Bay, I’ll make sure it’s smooth and stress-free.
Why they chose this property
I love Downtown San Jose’s blend of historic homes and urban energy. From the house you can walk to San Pedro Square Market, great coffee spots, parks, and the convention center; and it’s a quick hop to SJSU, SAP Center, and Diridon/Caltrain & VTA Light Rail for easy Bay Area access. The block is quiet and residential, yet you’re minutes from dining, arts, and tech campuses; perfect for both work trips and weekend exploring.
What makes this property unique
This is a restored 1920s Spanish bungalow that pairs original charm; arched doorways, warm hardwoods, and tons of natural light; with a modern, thoughtfully designed interior. Guests get fast Wi-Fi for WFH, a fully equipped kitchen, hotel-quality linens, and efficient heating/cooling for year-round comfort. You’ll have dedicated off-street parking, keyless self check-in, a tidy private yard/patio to unwind, and a layout that’s ideal for two couples, small families, or business travelers who want style, walkability, and a seamless stay.
