This hotel is in a great location, has very good sized rooms and has an excellent staff! It desperately needs updating and greater attention to cleanliness. But, I’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

I liked the staircase in the lobby. The lobby computer didn't work because of no WiFi connection. The staff really had no idea how to get it to work. Also had it worked it's using Windows 7 so it would have been slow. I would stay again when back in Oakland. Just make sure you have a car for getting around.

I stay in hotels 10 to 20 times per year and this is one of my favorite places to stay. The water view rooms with a balcony are great. Rooms clean and the bathrooms are great as well. Tub can fit 2 people and the shower is spacious.
