Booked through a third-party website, thus my stay was cheaper than the usual rate. Honestly was not impressed with my stay. When I walked into my complex there was a musty scent, as well as one of cigarette smoke. My apartment was no better; I’m not sure if the fans were picking up cigarette smoke from the smokers outside or whether someone was smoking upstairs, but I had to keep my kitchen and bathroom fan on all weekend to keep the smell of cigarette smoke out of my apartment.
The place was moderately clean upon arrival. Blinds are in need of replacing as they are fabric material and have stains on them. There was also a huge stain on the carpet near the couch. Overall, I was not impressed by Homeport.
To end on a positive note, I would like to say that the reception/front desk staff were very friendly and professional. I also appreciated the fact that they were taking extra precautions with guests to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Upon arrival to reception, guests are screened and asked if they have travelled internationally or domestically before they are allowed in the reception area. Then you are asked to wash your hands before checking-in. This is appreciated.
Also: Lots of parking available. Fully-functioning kitchen. Bed was comfortable. Coin operated laundry services available in basement. Unfortunately, this was not enough to prompt me to stay another night; I ended up needing to stay in SJ another night and opted to book a different place.
