"Location was a problem. Also had a lot of unhoused people in and around the facility."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham San Jose Airport-Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed here a few times and it’s so nice and clean. Staff was nice. We did park in garage & upon leaving we opened trunk (which we had a reg Sz tire in it since we are traveling far & no spare) to put luggage in and we noticed the tire had been moved. We placed it specifically so our luggage would fit, when valet came to take care we had to go in trunk to remove items but in the morning tire was moved. There is no way it would move pulling into garage especially if it didn’t move after a 500 mile drive. So not sure why someone would go in the trunk 1st off and then lift & move the tire. So I would recommend not leaving anything in trunk/car regardless of it being in a gated garage. Other then that our stay was fine"
