Not the fanciest rooms, but very clean and comfortable. Very satisfied with my stay (1night). Perfect for my needs: reasonable price, comfortable room and convenient location. Staff was very friendly and helpful! This was my second stay at Wafer 450 hotel. This is now my go to hotel when visiting in Santa Clara.

One of the cleanest feeling budget hotels I have been too. Overall the decor has a modern feel, though you can tell a few corners have been cut. The after hours front desk experience was very interesting: they have a machine that can handle check-in and check-out while a person on zoom talks to you and scans your ID/credit card. It takes a bit longer, but I didn't mind too much.

During booking process I had requested for 2nd floor for a quieter room and received confirmation from hotel, but it ended up became 1st floor and no other option when checking-in, had bad experience due to noise and fly inside the room.

1. The shower knob is broken. You just can't adjust water temperature with ease. 2. The toilet is loose. It moves up and down when you sit on it. 3. There is not even a desk to put your laptop so that you can work in the room.
