Small little place but dont be fooled from the outside. The rooms are nice and clean and the people at the desk are helpful. We forgot our phone in the room and they let us in without any fuss
the room was pretty clean, the parking was okay. the location was really nice though. there’s a 7 eleven right behind the hotel and just in general there was a lot of places nearby to eat. overall really nice i would definitely go back to hayward and come back to this hotel. there was no problems at all.
I rarely leave reviews, and after more than 40 years in hospitality, I tend to notice details most guests may not. That’s exactly why I felt this property deserved recognition.
My stay at Discovery Inn exceeded my expectations. The property was exceptionally clean, well maintained, and comfortable. What stood out most was how safe and cared for I felt. The staff was welcoming, professional, and attentive, making sure my needs were met without hesitation.
In an industry where customer service can feel like an afterthought, Discovery Inn gets the basics right—cleanliness, comfort, safety, and genuine respect for guests.
If you’re looking for an affordable, well-run hotel in the Hayward area, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Discovery Inn. They earned this review, and that’s something I don’t say often.
Quick and easy Check on. Extremely clean room and helpful staff.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room had been remodeled and had nice amenities. The area is close to downtown Hayward and BART. Staff was excellent. I didn't like the smell of the room (the cleaner/disinfectant was super strong), and the room was noisy. Also, the parking is very tight.
Room was clean, so were the linens. Parking is very tight. Good food options near by and close to BART and the freeway. Rooms are pretty worn and so is the exterior. We weren't able to get clean towels during our three night stay.
Super friendly staff. The property is very clean. Large rooms with comfortable beds that are covered in nice bedding. There's a mini fridge, microwave. Wi-Fi and parking are free. I'm so glad to have found this gem.
