Cheap rent. Maybe not the most glamours place to live but its the cheapest rent is downtown San Jose.

The new manager is great. He is very straight forward and responds to his tenants needs quickly. The apartment is clean, the heat and cooling is very quick and it's a great location. I haven't had any trouble with noise as well.
