Clayton, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Decent spot

Staff was nice, convenient location to nearby shops and restaurants. Breakfast buffet didn't offer much variety, but the coffee was fresh. Was only in town for a follow-up job interview and had pleasant experience with Jack London Inn in the past. So I booked them again and again they delivered. Will stay here again should I have to stay in Oakland.
Kevin, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great beds and pillows, terrific staff & owner.

Short overnight stay. Convenient to train depot. Hotel in process of refurbishing, so there were a few issues, e.g. tv wasn't working, no tissues or cups in the bath, a few gaps in the flooring due to be replaced. But, the staff graciously changed our room and made sure all was well in the new room. It was clean, very comfortable beds and pillows and helpful, friendly staff.

The lobby was sketchy. Overall the hotel was dirty. We did not stay. We left, the room smelled, the room was hot and there was no air conditioning. I am really surprised you Carrie this hotel on your website.

2/10 Poor

Party Central.

The only reason why I gave this hotel a chance. Is because of its location, but once my fiancé and I got there, it reeked of cigarette smoke, smell and we were missing some items in our room, for example, pillows and hand soap. Also on the 2nd day of our stay there was a big party in one of the rooms next door. We heard some noises that were concerning almost reached out to local authorities about it. This hotel is not for the faint of heart.

Customer service improvements

The stay was great but I saw roaches and a flea was on me while staying in room 303. I did mention this to the desk personnel. Before leaving and I am being harassed by cleaning staff when I am in the common ares of this hotel.

4/10 Fair

Facility is dated and needs upgrades.
Victor, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

During my stay, the hallways had a strong smell of marijuana. On two of the four days, there was no hot water available. Additionally, something that made the stay particularly uncomfortable—although I understand it is beyond their control—was the train passing by day and night, creating a very loud noise.
Cristóbal, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Pleasant, stay.

Overall, it was a good experience. There were a few issues that came up. For example, the TV not working and our trash not being picked up from the room. But as soon as we addressed it to the staff, the issue was resolved, they do offer continental breakfast, but my fiancé and I did not try it. So I can't rate that

Oakland on a budget

Had to travel to Oakland for a short notice job interview. Booked Jack London Inn due to having a reasonable price and its distance from the job interview site. Hotel's location is convenient to many nearby tourist attractions and restaurants. Alameda island only a 10 minute walk/ferry ride away. Room itself was decent and reservation included breakfast. Check-in was smooth and front desk clerk was kind enough to loan me a pen for my job interview. Next time I'm in Oakland, will definitely hit this place up.
Kevin, 1-night trip

Loud trains passing by the front of hotel, added to the character though.

The plumbing in the room was all messed up and very gross experience. I was very uncomfortable and couldn't change rooms.
