lionel, Jan 2018
Pros (+) I only stay at Taormina, It is my official "go to" place whenever I am in San Jose (I am there at least 5 times a year). The facilities are clean, the staff is nice and the rooms have been renovated within the last year as well. I love the casino/bar and restaurant and everything in downtown San Jose is walking distance.
