Mother/Daughter Trip
This property was perfect for our girls trip. Parking was on the street but we didn't have any issues finding a spot near the home. Beds were comfortable and room was clean.

Incredible Experience!!!
This was not just a stay, this was an experience! A GREAT experience. The home was just stunning. From the gorgeous decor, the cleanliness, the antiqueness.... we cant wait to come back. We rented unit 6 which is a full apartment on the top floor. Host was extremely responsive and very polite and helpful. They left snacks that the kids just loved ❤️. They neighborhood is peaceful and quiet. The other guests were quiet as well. Thank you! If you are considering traveling to San Jose, you wont regret renting at the Hensley house.
