Oakland Hotel Guide - Pet Friendly Hotels in Oakland, California

"Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Room was clean, comfortable and spacious. Very convenient location with lots of food options and very short walk to UC theater. I stay here every time I go to a concert at the UC theater and it’s always great, I will continue staying here every time. Plenty of parking options around hotel, if you don’t want to use valet."

"Convenient location to campus and public transportation."

"We were disappointed that the pool was closed 2 of the 3 days we were there."

"If you are visiting your child at Cal, staying at the Claremont is a no-brainer if you are looking for a bit (or a lot) more than a typical hotel stay. "

"Unfortunately I wouldn't stay here again. The entire place is a bit dingy and odors linger, the bathroom/bedroom layout is awkward and made opening and storing suitcases difficult, and the breakfast was mediocre and always closed early. The location was convenient for getting in/out San Francisco and we appreciated the number of close restaurants and shopping. "

"To start off the hotel was good, but I was devastated by a situation that occurred where I was locked out of my room for some odd reason and if the staff in front was not available,(mind you this was after I had came back after a night out where I went to a concert. I arrived at the hotel at 2:30 AM) I would’ve been outside of my room for the whole night until God knows when and what was more mortifying is that there was people who were watching and seeing everything happen and there was drunk people coming in as well so my safety was on the line not only that, but to top it off, my stuff including my passport and my credit cards were all inside in the room, which I had no access to. I am so grateful for the lady in the front who went above and beyond to help solve this issue. Meanwhile, I waited almost 3 hours outside of the room which was unnecessary but all in all the hotel is nice but the staff needs to do a better job at registering and making sure this doesn’t happen to anybody else in the future"

"People was yelling and singing after midnight and people smoking MarMijuana on the third floor and in the back of the property. Also, the mattress had like blood stains and the staff was very friendly."
