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.

Liked: Staff & service
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.

Close to Public Transport
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.

Liked: Cleanliness
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.

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.

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.
