    Having never stayed at a bed and breakfast before I wasn't really sure what to expect, but I couldn't pass up the opportunity while on a travel nurse assignment in Santa Clara! Between fresh baked cookies and port, amazing dinners once a week and wonderful innkeepers, it was very hard to leave. I stayed in the Fremont room-lots of sun and fresh air with two windows. I especially enjoyed the outdoor space-relaxing in the swing with a good book, a pool and the sound of the fountain equals a great sunny California afternoon. Enjoying a dinner around the fire pit (built and decorated by Ralph and Theresa) or around the fireplace in the parlor was another favorite part of my stay. There are so many personal touches here and I'm looking for an excuse to have a girls weekend here. I'm definitely sold on bed and breakfasts now. :-)


    Nice alternative to local motels

    Nice old place. In operation as a B & B for 26 years, some aspects of the place need updating. Our bed was good for one was a bit "rolls to the center" old. Breakfast was fine but it would have been really nice if some breakfast bread came after the good eggs bendict, coffee and juice. Being from Minnesota I noticed the windows were not well weatherstripped letting in air and sound. We enjoyed meeting Ralph and Theresa. They know the business.

    Innkeeper Response
    This guest's input was very useful to me, as I had been considering replacing the mattress but procrastinated when the previous guest said "the bed was comfy". Maybe for one? This kind of feedback is great and the mattress in the Fremont room has now been replaced to match the standards of our other mattresses. Serving breakfast breads after the Eggs Benedict is also a good tip.

    A nice break from strip malls and corporate America.

    There are not many lodging options around Santa Clara University except corporate suites (more expensive than I prefer) or strip mall motels. Madison Street Inn served my purposes in that it is a locally-owned, family run business a short and lovely walk from campus. I was left alone to do my work (versus places with chatty innkeepers) but knew that Theresa was there if I had any questions or needed anything. My room, the least expensive in the inn, was perfect. The bed was comfy, the sink nice, and it was right next to a bathroom with a clawfoot tub. (The room also had a small refrigerator.) The wireless worked well. The decor is homey Victorian, cozy and inviting. When I arrived on a rainy day, there was a warming fire and I was offered a glass of port (too bad I had to work ...). I will stay there again when I have the opportunity.

    Theresa did a great job and her breakfasts were outstanding. The room was comfortable and the location was very good for my business.
