To stay for a night, this hotel is good to choose. All the stores, places are nearby. Price is also considerable.I have picked this hotel to stay for a night. My work place is also close-by. Front-desk service is pretty prompt. I recommend this hotel to consider for economy purpose.

This Vagabond Inn was a 20 minute drive from Twin Creeks Fields off Lawrence Expressway in Santa Clara where my daughter was playing Softball.
