A Standout on the Strip
This motel was a delightful find - it was clean and had all the comforts of higher-rated hotels, and I experienced no on-street activity to detract from my ability to access and enjoy the property. It's actually a well-cared-for surrounding residential neighborhood and I enjoyed my early-morning jogs.

Surprisingly Nice 👍, Great Value
This line of hotels in Oakland has cleaned up its act. This one in particular. I arrived at 11:30 pm. Staff guy was nice, friendly. Felt safe, lots of lights, cameras etc. The street itself is kinda Shady, but expect that The room was nice, contemporary floors & super contemporary bathroom, shower sink floor etc. Bedding was clean, nice , hotel style standard, Huge flatscreen tv, modern remote, dish network, Coffee maker, frig. Interior door was beat up, but functioned good, standard dead bolt 👍. Not for kids, this street in Oakland is kinda hit and miss. But Great value $ 90, two queen beds. Great for a night or two. I got room 115, interior corridor, quiet from McArthur Blvd. and BART ( Bay Area “Train” Subway) Walk to BART, nice shops up Piedmont Ave. I’ll stay again, for the price, other Hotels are $ 125 and up. 👍👍 Matthew- Lodi, Berkeley, Oakland

Staff is friendly. Property and neighborhood are a little run down, but getting gentrified. Room was very clean and bed super comfortable. I’d stay here again! Very central location.

Beware! Do not stay here.
This place was scary , we drove up in the middle of the night , last minute stay. Found on Hotels.com. Scary neighborhood. Phone system did not work, phone in room was very dirty, the pictures on Hotels.com are misleading, bathroom window was open. wires hanging from ceiling. Cable box dirty. Do not stay here unless your desperate. The card key envelope was clearly used and dirty. The need to rate the surrounding neighborhood you book in.
Phone did not work
door was bad shape

Dirty room
This was the dirtiest place I’ve stayed. The floor was a bit dirty, but under the bed hadn’t been vacuumed in a while. There was dust everywhere. Obvious it hadn’t been dusted in months.

I liked the location and cleanliness. The air conditioning didn’t work, it was more like a fan. I chose a king bed room, they only had a two bed room and then I had to agree to not use the second bed and then I would receive my $20 deposit back

The room was pretty large but had a funky water damage smell and was in desperate need of new carpet and some insisting worn here and there. Great shower though!
