Great location, clean lobby and rooms with very comfy beds. Onsite parking. The hallways could use some TLC, and not the fault of the hotel, but the train noise from the rail line that runs through Jack London Square goes on all night, so bring your nighttime earplugs. Lots of restaurants in a mixed area. The staff is very friendly and helpful!

The only good thing I can say about this hotel is that it is right across the street from Jack London Square. Right on the bay with new restaurants and venues. The hotel itself is old. The staff is very unfriendly. It is VERY loud as the AmTrack train runs right in front of the hotel every 20-30 minutes. The continental breakfast was lacking. Last note… if you work nights.. this is the first hotel I have been to in Oakland that does not do late check outs!! Would not recommend

The air cobditioning has poor ventilation. The window cannot be open so I could not enjoy fresh wind of San Francisco Bay Area. It was 60F. The area is close to Starbucks and some eateries. Has bus routes directly serving the hotel. The hotel serves basic vreakfast like cereals and toasts.
