  • The staff was very friendly.
  • The beds were very hard. $20 for parking, and the food was overpriced.

“This is a very beautiful hotel. The indoor spa was very nice. Although, the beds were hard, and the breakfast buffet was overpriced for the quality.”

  • Staff was nice.
  • No validation for parking garage, expensive to park car.

“It was nice but I really don't think that a person should have to pay to park their car.”

“Be warned the only parking available is valet parking (they will not tell you where you can park cheaper even though there are places around), they charge $20 a day. A cheap hotel room, suddenly isn't so cheap to say the least. There is also no room service which I was really surprised by.”

  • Apples at the front desk, and great acoustics in spa.

“Apples were at the front desk, and we had great acoustics in the spa. I was so moved, I found myself singing. Fortunately I was alone.”

  • Good quality, firm bed, clean and
    quite.
  • Hotel not upfront about 20.00 valet parking price.

“I wished they would have stated up front that parking would be 20.00 I awoke to find a note left under the door stating that this charge was added to my credit card. No help or cart made available to get my luggage from the car, to the lobby. Other that that I enjoyed my room and stay.”

  • Large room with free internet access.
  • It is starting to show hage.

“Nice hotel, large rooms with a fridge and microwave. Very comfortable bed. Hotel is a bit worn and the rooms are showing age. I did not get my wake up call as requested.”

  • I have stayed here twice now. The room is clean and comfortable. The staff has always been friendly and helpful.
  • The parking charge. Located in Chinatown business district so its can be noisy.

“Comfortable, clean and a good upper moderate hotel. I have stayed here twice with no issues. Do not like the $20.00 a day parking charge and not convenient to public transportation. But, it fits my needs and I would stay here again.”

  • The staff was pleasant and accommodating.
  • I mistakenly thought Courtyards included kitchenettes.

“The hotel was clean and well located between Old Oakland and Chinatown, 7 blocks from the Ferry and Waterfront. It was a very functional hotel, but no glitz and glamour.

  • Good location, comfortably appointed, friendly
  • The food was very expensive.

“Excellent location, adjacent to China Town, easy to access from Amtrak and Jack London Square. Difficult to find dining options in the evening, except very pricey ones. This is a luxury hotel.”

  • Room was attractive and comfortable.
  • Slow car valet service.

“Clean and pleasant, geared to business travel. The staff was helpfull but brusk. Not overly friendly. The parking offered was manditory valet parking for an additional $20 plus tips. I paid cash but they charged my card anyway. The charge was later refunded.”

  • The facility, especially our room was always set to a cold temp and we had to always adjust our room.
