Beachside Sunnyvale Motel
The motel was in a gorgeous location, with views of the bay out front. The rooms were so comfortable and clean, it felt like home away from home. Our host, Tomoko, was also very kind and friendly. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Wilkes Way Villa
Tim and Heather were wonderful hosts, nothing was too much trouble. The room we had was spacious and luxurious. It had everything you could need as well as access to a pool table and movie room. Lots of books to read and all the amenities were modern and of good quality. View out the front window ...

Food was great! Loud sound in room 101 that could not be corrected was only bad item. Very convenient
