Some of the locals probably had stays later in the year if they were around and found good rates.

The renovation is nice, but it's purely cosmetic -- the electrical outlets and escutcheons in the bathrooms are still grimy and old. I miss the Eames chairs, even though the upholstery was starting to crack on many; the new chairs aren't nearly as nice.
That said, I think this is still the best property in the area. It has, by far, the best water pressure and the best dining options of the hotels that are in the grand wasteland of Great America Parkway.

I hope it's better now and they would have had the sense to add a hand held shower head as they offered in the suites.

Do all rooms here have fridges? I can't seem to find consistent information. I'll need to keep some things cold for an upcoming stay and am trying to figure out if I should request a fridge (or switch to the Hyatt House nearby).

I think every room I've stayed in there had a fridge.

If request and if they already have them in the rooms, they'd tell you.

Can verify - just stayed their Sunday night and had the 2500 points credited with no issue.
Honestly, for a longer stay, I do enjoy the club. The lounge does lack in ambiance as previous posters have stated, but personally, I don't care. The offerings, both in the AM and PM, are stellar.

I've really tried to give this property a chance to impress me, but they continue to disappoint. I'm out in Sunnyvale at least once a month - and have been for the past 5 years or so. I've stayed there about 15 times in the past couple of years, and there are a whole bevy of things that they continue to screw up on. Things like charging me a fee to receive a package delivered by UPS (an Amazon order), or telling my guest - and even customers that I've invited to their restaurant for dinner and drinks - that they can't park in the parking lot so they have to park across the street at the convention center, or making me get out of my car to move the cones that are blocking the entrance to the front parking lot... The list goes on.
I've been very happy at the Hyatt House at Rivermark as well as the Hyatt House Silicon Valley - especially Silicon Valley. We recently had to be out there for a death in our family (my stepson); the Silicon Valley staff were absolutely wonderful to us. They sent flowers to my wife, and did everything they possibly could to make us as comfortable as possible.
Don't really care if the Regency upgrades the rooms - to me it's still putting lipstick and rouge on a pig.
Sorry my first post had to be so negative.

The NFL has a hold on all rooms in the area, event venues etc for most of Superbowl week. I know for the NYC, DFW super bowls the day before the game room rates plummeted I'm renting out my carriage house in Mountain View that week and will be asking far more than $2,800. It's near Cal Train so easy access to the stadium and the city.
