Really good location, and pretty good staff that didn't bother us too much. Finding the room was easy as well. If you're in need of a quick place to stay this hotel is good.

There was a particular smell once I entered the building. Somehow was even stronger, if not different once I got to my room. The area was nice, considering Oakland's reputation. But since it was in the downtown area, it was easy to settle in. Being close to the bus and bus system was benefiting. Not a wide range of restaurants though. Or at least some that stay open past a certain time. I suppose that's because of the homeless people in the area. But not at many as other say there are. Overall, if you manage to keep to yourself and go about your business, you can have a good time residing in there for a night or two.

It's a 109-year-old hotel but maintained well. We enjoyed the famous jazz club "Yoshi's" nearby.

It was good value for money, with breakfast included. It's proximity to the Bart station made it easy to access San Francisco city centre and cheap transport to SFO airport. It is also close to the Amtrak station.
