It's an old family ran motel. The area is sketch, but I felt safe & had no issues during my stay. Only downside, by choice, very limited English speaking by the front desk.

Pros: convenient for mass transit. Clean and upgraded bathroom. No bugs. Cons: dirty carpet, thin pillows and towels. As a smoker I expect my rooms to be kind of shabby so I can’t judge much there, but the carpet is so dirty that I had to walk in my sandals or socks to avoid dirty feet and that’s always pretty gross. For the crappy neighborhood, it felt safe enough and was pretty quiet. I think if someone is okay with lower quality but nothing majorly negative then this place is fine but most people would probably want to pay more for a decent hotel.

It was not listed that we have to bring cash to pay a deposit and that we cannot pay the room on a credit card. Very strange. We ended up having to find another hotel do to the inconvenience. I BETTER NOT GET CHARGED!!!!

You need $100 cash for a deposit. Who carries cash anymore? If you keep your car there past checkout, you will pay anything between $20-40 extra, depending on how they fee. And you won't get a receipt. Lost my keycard and that is a $10 fee. Location is close to BART, but the service is pretty horrible.

Good: 1. Room was decent enough for one night. The room was cozy. It had a frig and microwave along with toiletries. 2. The location to public transport. The motel is two blocks from Lake Merrit Bart and only a few blocks from Amtrak. Not so good 1. Homeless trash pile outside on the road. I totally get it as it’s Oakland but still not the most welcoming. 2. There is a cash deposit of $100 upon arrival. You can still pay the reservation with credit card. 3. Since it’s next to the freeway it can be noisy. Good enough for a night or two.

Fair price. Despite being next to the freeway, it was pretty quiet. Friendly staff. Area is not great, its Oakland after all.

The property is nestled next to the freeway. Using the car to drive to this property is inconvenient both for the freeway and the local streets. The management will take a bank card to pay for the room, however will only except cash payment for the room deposit, which is stupid.

This motel is on the smaller side but the friendliness of the staff along with a clean room overshadows the size. A coffee maker and microwave were included. It's unfortunate that I couldn't take complete advantage. due to a family emergency I had the room for less than 6 hours.

The staff are very nice and helpful, the location is two blocks from BART and within walking distance of Chinatown and the Jack London Square area. On Sundays, the Laney Flea Market is literally across the street, so that was neat too.

There was loud night construction nearby but that isn’t the motel’s fault. It is also a very rough neighborhood but I knew that beforehand and don’t mind personally. The cable didn’t work except for one channel. That should be fixed.

This is a clean, well lit budget property. The room was very clean and the shower was hot. This is the kind of place where you need a clean place to sleep, don't need amenities, want to support a small business and don't get too upset about the run down areas of Oakland.

I didn't expect much from this property, but for $90 a night, I thought it would be in better condition. The door fit so poorly that it sounded like it was open. The freeway and nearby train are incredibly noisy. Bathroom was OK.

The staff it’s very rude the owner/employee ask you for $100 depocit ONLY CASH without giving you a receipt, I have to go to the airport very early on my checkout day and I have to knock the service door to be able to collect my cash depocit, the guy was really mad, also they don’t bother to collect the dirty towels every day you have to go to the office and ask for fresh ones while exchanging the dirty ones, it’s a total hassle and the room was very dusty and have a very bad smell, the place looks decent but once you enter to the room specially at night it’s infestated with cockroaches at night they are all over the place, the door knobs where very dirty I have to up clean and sanitize the room myself in the fist night to feel staying ove there for 3 nights and 4 days!

The carpet was extremely dirty, towels had stains on them, blankets have holes on them. The fridge wasn’t cooling properly, the location is very sketchy. Most importantly, it’s overpriced!!!

The receptionist is really helpful and nice person. The room is clean. Towels quantities may be increased. The area is not a good place I can say this. Too much noise coming from the street. Loud car listening loud music in the middle of night. People were screaming on the street.
