Double booked my room (or there was someone squatting there, don't know). Receptionist (nice guy) gave me keys and we went to open it but the bolt was locked and there was a guy and I'm assuming his family inside. I asked to cancel. Don't know if it simply was an honest mistake, but nonetheless we left and got another hotel (I'll admit 30 bucks more expensive) that was way better in Alameda (continental breakfast, gym, pool, nice interior). This place has to step up it's game (maybe one day they will).

Not bad for the price! We needed to find a place to sleep in a not so bad area. This was it. The building needs some major upgrades but it was fine. The breakfast is just cereal, toast, jelly and coffee.

The manager is horrible. I booked and stayed the first night with my family and pretty after being displaced. We were in the 4th floor. Paid pet deposit and everything. The next morning I was asked if I was going to extend stay and they said okay. Moments later they said they did not allow dogs on the 4th floor, and will die the person who allowed it. I asked if I can do it later since my family members were at work, but he said within 15 mins and I can't take more time. I was injured after the fire too. He said if I could move in I can move out. Very inappropriate. Injured after a traumatic event and to be told that just shows the lack of hospitality. I asked around and the employees said no they don't have a no dog policy on the 4th floor. They placed me on floor 2. There were other dogs there. I was like okay. I turned on the heater and smoke came out. Realizing how it smelt, some one hot boxed in the room for sure. And that the freshness of the room was to hide the smell. I then went to walk my dog and my family was frighten at what they saw. It wasn't appropriate for children. The freshness was gone. People were triggered by the smell of smoke, since we had an apartment fire. They moved us to the 4th floor. After they said they didn't allow dogs. After sending us to an unsafe floor. After being shocked they sent a kid to the second floor.

Listen to the Trains!
An inexpensive option to be right near Jack London Square; the immediate area is walkable with a decent amount of dining options. You are literally next to an active set of railroad tracks and you will hear trains!

I’m an older woman with mobility issues. I arrived early in the morning because my train trip left me with a layover in Oakland early in the morning. I arrived I was cold and told the front desk clerk if I could sit in lobby because I knew it was too early to check in. He told me I couldn’t so I was stuck sitting out in front of lobby on a rock at 6:30 in the morning. I did finally get an Uber to take me to a nearby restaurant for breakfast. After breakfast I walked loaded down with my luggage and came. The old man that was there earlier was gone. He was rude and unprofessional. I plan to never go there again.
