The purpose for our visits was due to a extended hospital stay. The property is super easy on/off to the highway. It's very close to multiple hospitals and if traffic is good only 20 min from Oakland airport. There are many restaurants close by. The hotel is very clean, if a little tired. I stayed in multiple rooms, some were better appointed than others. The pillows in all three rooms I stayed in were not the greatest, but I bring my own anyway. The rooms and bathrooms were very clean, carpeting everywhere not so much. The furniture had seen better days long ago and the elevator has a whole cacophony of noises it likes to make. The cleaning staff, maintenance staff and breakfast staff were all super friendly. The front desk staff was a different story...I didn't get a welcoming vibe from most of them. It was as if they were doing a job and that was it. The price was happily affordable. Lately, I've had to stay in hotels that were ridiculously expensive. This hotel is isn't cheap, but it is doable. Especially if you have to do an extended stay.
Overall, with a few little hitches I would highly recommend this property.
