Liked: Staff & service
Staff are professional and curtesy. Amenities are ok. Self serve coffee machine has hot chocolate as a selection now. AC and heating works well. Properly is getting older looking. You can hear next door if kids are playing around. Mold in the shower area where the caulkings are. Breakfast is just OK. 2 EV stations available. Elevator is quick. Ice Machines are working well. Area is not the safest but not the worst. Few places to eat within walking distance. South bound 880 is easy to get on. A pain if you want to go North. Charging $17 per night parking. However, u don’t see a security when I go out at night. Property does blocked off one entrance/exit during evening hours. I still recommend this hotel.

Last year we stayed in a corner room on the water front, it was large and bright and we had a great experience. This year we stayed on the "city view" side and it was a completely different experience. "City View" means the freeway and an encampment, the room was smaller and so were the beds. It was a bit of a depressing room.

Our objective was to go to Jack London Square. The property supposedly offers a shuttle but what they don’t say is the hours of the shuttle are early morning and late afternoon and it’s only going out. No pick ups

Great Family Hotel
Great family stay for all of us. The rooms have plenty of space, good views and small pool and spa area. There's a small walkway by the water and a couple of fishing piers. Plenty of parking and feels very safe. The Lounge at their sister hotel seems like a nice place for drinks and good steak or salmon dinner.

I booked this Hotel for my son and I to stay somewhere with a pool and spa. The pool was not very clean and the spa was broken. The English Muffin I had for breakfast had mold on it. The room itself was really pretty but if I wanted to sit a room all day I would have saved the money and stayed at home. My son wouldn't even get in the pool. He said it was nasty.

Had huge line to get checked in. Only one person sitting down to do this and there was a big Baseball game. Our room was very nice. Not set up for our kid though to sleep. Not hotels fault but person above us paced for 7 hours and took 4 showers which were so loud that we thought our water was running. Overnight person at desk did call them and acted right away. It lasted for 2 hours then Mr. High heels decided to start pacing again! Horrid sleep and we were here for an event this morning and now have to drive back to LA exhausted. Again not fault of hotel.
