Very solid rehearsal space, a blessing for artists in the bay area. The ability to play loud, have 24 hour access and have your room to your creative setting is unmatched among most rehearsal spaces in the whole bay area. Friendly, efficient and professional owners. 🙏🤘

Ive been a tenant at 8bit for almost a year. This facility is great and its such a blessing to have this type of creative space available in san jose. Its well managed by Evan and Jason and they have great communication. The facility is kept in great condition and they have an awesome game lounge with old school video games (like tony hawk!) As well as retro game machines that you see in old arcades. Looking forward to being around 8bit castle as long as im in san jose!! 🙏🙏🙏

They kept $200 from my deposit for "general wear and tear", but never showed any evidence. Their commutation is horrible, and one of the owners complained about going our of his way to the studio to help me out. Even though I wasn't a tenant at that time, it's still their business and they still had my deposit. The other owner mentioned that he can't prioritize their "many business obligations" over a previous tenant. When earlier they mentioned that they're rarely at the studio. I will tell everyone to stay away from this place.

My daughter Lillyana loves her teacher Tracy Cruz for vocal lessons. She is very patient & amazing with kids. We will definitely be back and so excited to see Lilly's progress 🤩🎤🎹
