Oakland Hotel Guide - Pet Friendly Hotels in Oakland, California

"Clean room. Nice view. "

"We loved our stay! Had fun and salable fun place. Great restaurant and wonderful dinner!!$"

"Pulling up I was discouraged by the outward appearance. Many people hanging around the area and an older looking parking lot. The hotel was fine, lobby and elevator were clean but nothing impressive. The room was clean and outside noise was not a disturbance, good space. Doubt I’d come back especially with kids. "

"From the grounds, rooms and health club to the amazingly helpful staff, this hotel is awesome!"

"Clean rooms, and staff was great!"

"i had a “safe” place to sleep that’s all that truly mattered. surrounding neighborhood is pretty sketchy but that’s oakland for you. pretty big drug bust outside my room on my first day which was pretty shocking, but if you need a place to sleep this is the place to be, just lock up your car."

"LOCATION - 5 Stars - Great, especially if visiting UC Berkeley; next to restaurants and shops and steps away from the University STAFF - 2 Stars - There were only 2 or 3 young girls at the front desk that we met during our 3 day stay. All of them looked unhappy at their job and seemed a better fit at a Thrift Store. CLEANLINESS - 3 Stars - much to be desired, specifically in the bathroom. Let's just say I was not about to use the bathtub. Throughout the room and bathroom, it looked like a deep clean was much needed. RESTAURANT - 4 Stars - Nothing spectacular, my salad was not fresh, but prices were reasonable and the service was fast. OTHER - 3 Stars - There was a very strong smell in the lobby, which I could not say what it was - candle or something else. While the decor in the lobby was interesting and inviting, it seemed that students and random people could just come in, buy a coffee and sit there using their computers. The room was a good size (we had the corner Campenile view) however, it did not feel clean, there was no pen, not even a single piece of paper to write a note. The Front Desk lobby area did not have any interesting materials on the area, what to do or see and I was not about to ask the front desk ladies, they did not inspire much confidence. There was no concierge either. Overall good location, but not even a 4 Star hotel."
