Hotels near Mind of Beauty Day Spa in Santa Clara

This was my second time staying at this hotel for business. My first experience was just ok. But this second time was horrible from start to finish. First off... its old. Just doesnt feel clean and honestly doesn't look it either. Front desk put me on the 1st floor next to the door going to the streets... I wouldve stayed but the tv didnt work!! I went to the front desk to get another room... preferably not on the 1st floor... I was denied. The second room was just as old and dirty looking with stains on the sofa and ottoman. I tried to take a shower but the hot/cold lever broke off. Crazy. Then I tried to store my food in he mini-fridge... But theres a button that you press that only allows the power to be on for 2 hours!?!?!? How cheap do you have to be to install that??? Side note... the room rate was $150. They held $400 on my credit card!! Im a Gold Bonvoy member and return customer.... so ***? On the same business trip I stayed at other (Better) Marriott properties that only held $180... maybe $200. That credit card hold and putting me on the garbage 1st floor felt Racial!! But ofcourse there is no proof!! Just terrible customer service!! Ill never stay at another Courtyard. Period. But Dont say I didnt warn you about the palo alto/los altos location. Ive stayed at Motel 6's that were cleaner and more comfortable!! And theyre Racists!!

I must’ve been the lucky hotel guest to get the jet engine in the bedroom closet because I am surprised to see no other reviews about it. I came to Residence Inn thinking that it would be a Marriott quality experience. I stayed with my daughters for four days and should have checked out after the first night. We tried to keep the room at 70°. The air-conditioning unit/furnace was locked behind a door in the bedroom. Whenever it would turn on it would rattle the entire door and literally sound like a jet airplane about to take off. It woke me up EVERY TIME it turned on throughout the night and it was so incredibly loud. We tried turning it off for the night, but immediately the temperature of the room would jump up to 76°, so we dealt with it. Again, we should have left. BEWARE OF ROOM 137! My daughters tried sleeping in the hide a bed. When we pulled it out there was no bedding, and no bedding to be found in any of the closets. We called the front desk and a man delivered the bedding without saying a word. No smile, no words. The hide a bed was so incredibly uncomfortable that my daughters just ended up sleeping on the couch instead. We have slept on Marriott hide a beds before, but nothing so terrible. After our first full day being out in the city, we decided to come home and get in the hot tub. We opened up the towel bin to find only a few towels and some garbage. I also noticed that there was hardly any pool furniture. Maybe one table and four chairs? We got in the hot tub and enjoyed ourselves while the jets were going. As soon as the jets stopped and the water was still we noticed a layer of bugs all over the hot tub. We immediately jumped out and left. Is the hot tub ever cleaned? As we would walk back to a room I would notice piles of garbage in random corners, and bags of garbage left outside of rooms and in the parking garage. Sometimes they would stay for days without being picked up. I must’ve missed the memo that rooms are not cleaned every day either? There is nothing posted anywhere in the room or in the hotel. Again something I was not expecting, maybe I missed the fine print. I wish this “hotel” would take care of the rooms and hallways and keep them maintained as well as they take care of the lobby and breakfast area. My family will not be returning.

Just back from a 2 week stay in this hotel. The room was quite well presented but the beds did not provide the most comfortable nights sleep. Staff were friendly and I appreciated there understanding when my son blocked the toilet. Room amenities include a coffee machine with pods, a microwave, and a fridge for storing food. Decent amount of plug sockets also provided. Biggest disappointment would have to be that there is an area downstairs for breakfast, but none provided and food is expensive at this time, so having to go out and find every meal is quite an additional consideration. Position of the hotel is good, with an in n out burger and jack in a box fast food restaurants, and a wall greens, Starbucks and knob hill food supermarkets all within walking distance. Downtown mountain view is walkable working 20 mins, and the transit centre for VTA and caltrain walkable in 35-40 mins.

Hotel Zico was located close to where we wanted to be. It is right next to the highway and they put us in the room nearest and facing that highway. Not much sleep. Cars all night. I asked to be moved. No more rooms that night. The next morning they moved us to another room. It was very quiet, away from the highway. The staff was very courteous and helpful. The room was clean, but basic. This is not a deluxe hotel, but it was very comfortable. We had time one morning and I noticed 2 bicycles outside. Free loaners. I had a great time riding on the paved trails that are right next to the hotel. We would stay there again, and that is probably the best recommendation.

The greeting you get on arrival and any questions you may think will obtain a response probably has already set the tone, but in going back to your room you will be happy. Let the place clear out of the strong cleaning fluid odor....at least you know it is clean. Try to get a spot in the back as it seems less noisy there. the home run here is the comp breakfast which is as good as any in this chain or any other. One lady tends to the place nicely, always clean, well stocked and way beyond what you are expecting. Even a chatty group who seemed to all be attending a quilting show. The rub here is the location and yet if you go just 6 blocks down Camino Real you will fine yourself in Sunnyvale.....very hip and stuffed with excellent dining and accommodations. You do not need to look for Sunnyvale, you can tell as soon as you cross from Santa Clara.

Typical motel, parking is free, breakfast is free, and it is perfect for American self-driving in terms of parking fees and expensive meals. The hotel is old, with only two floors and a slightly older interior, yet very comfortable. Shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, soap, hair dryer are available. Like most American hotels, there are no slippers, toothbrushes and electric kettles, but there are drip coffee machines in the room, which can also be used to boil water. It makes sense for Chinese people who drink hot water, and there are free ice cube machines in the corridor. Breakfast typical American style, a variety of juices, coffee, milk, yogurt drinks, bacon, sausages, scrambled eggs, bread, buffet waffles, etc. Overall, it feels good.

Clean and easy access, plenty of good parking. the only thing I would recommend is to have paper plates so we can take a muffin to the room and better creamer in rooms since we were staying in outer building. Beds were very comfy. Good breakfast options! Seemed to be safe area as well with many amenities accessible.

I am typically hesitant to book a hotel not part of a familiar chain when traveling for work, but I'm so glad I tried this hotel. It exceeded expectations. I found it on a travel site while looking for a hotel near my work meeting. From the moment I walked in, the staff was welcoming and accommodating. I needed to print something late, and they generously helped without question while calming my work stress with an intriguing conversation. The rooms are updated while keeping the charm of the building. I highly recommend it and will choose to stay here when visiting the area.

The hotel is close to Stanford university, the price is small, the parking lot is free, no breakfast, the service is very good, the surrounding is convenient, there is a big Sichuan dish at 300 meters, next to the gas station

I have stayed one night twice in this location. First stay, the FOH was getting trained, focus was on checking me in the computer. Second visit, quick check in process, friendly staff, forgot to write my room number nor mention it to me, good thing I saw in app after parking. $18 on site parking either open next to hotel entrance, or in a gated covered lot. The room has a modern look with the vanity separating the bedroom and bathroom. The 1 king bed room has frosted walls/doors with no locks for the shower and toilet, not a fan of the frosted look because it does not look clean for me. The vanity had motion sensor lights on the bottom. The shower has both a shower head and has a rainfall shower system - pressure was both appropriate, strong for the shower head, moderate for the rainfall. Behind the vanity, facing the bed was a floor to almost the ceiling mirror - still don’t know how I feel about this haha. I do like the modern feel. The bed felt comfy. The room could be cleaner. There were some hair strands next to toilet and there were a couple under the duvet. There was a green stain on the water flush and a dried visible stain on the counter by the sink - we typically bring cleansing wipes to clean our room regardless but cleanliness definitely could be better. Great sized tv and desk available as a working space. Side note: it’s right next to 10 Butcher’s which is an upscale kbbq place pricey but yummy!👍
