Oakland Airport Executive Hotel

Oakland Airport Executive Hotel

2/10 Terrible
"This place was horrific. The groumds and building are not well maintained . Upon arrival we were one elevator down. Got into the operating elevator only for that to be a bouncing loud door slamming deathtrap that at one point stopped moving and we immediately got the doors to finally open after pressing the call button and got no answer back. The rest of our stay both elevators were down ... me and my mother (both disabled) had no choice but to go up 4 flights of stairs. The railings on the stairs were broken and we almost fell. I watched the staff carry an elderly woman in a wheelchair up 5 flights of stairs to her room. What if there was a fire? That lady would have died. For a non smoking facility, the entire place smelled like a casino floor ashtray and had cigarettes butter all over the floors and black marks on walls from people putting their cigarettes out on the walls... the entire place reaked of mold and had trash on the floors... looked like the lastime someone swept or mopped, or even vacuumed was in the 70s... flies everywhere. They had fans blowing to mast the smell of the mold in the lobby... they advertised continental breakfast with thier stay... and that wasnt provided at all. This place is unsafe and I want my money back. When I told staff this place should be condemned he just laughed and said "I know""
