I stayed one night at this hotel for a business meeting in downtown Oakland. The hotel was just renovated so everything is brand new and nice. The front desk assigned a king-size bed with spacious room facing the street. I wanted to stay in this room, however the size could not overcome the traffic noise so the front desk easily agreed to switch me to another room, however queen size bed and smaller room. My mobile phone reception was spotty in the room (but I have AT&T) so I'm used to their spotty connections. Parking was just ten bucks across the street. With a room rate under $100, I would stay at this hotel again in the future. more
