Nice breakfast and quiet room.
Pros:

Allow you to early check-in. Good breakfast. Big room. You can walk to the Oakland Museum of California, which was super nice.

Cons:

The downtown is too quiet for me. Very few cafes and restaurants, so not much activities closeby.

Fine stay , awful communication
Cons:

It is a fine hotel. I wanna give it a higher score but they refused to answer my messages before thestay and now after the stay refuse to answer my request for an invoice. I need the invoice to be refuned by my workplace.

Ottimo soggiorno in un accogliente appartamento
Pros:

Appartamento monolocale molto accogliente e ampio, pulito e dotato di tutto il necessario. Colazione buona tipica americana, specialmente considerando era inclusa nel prezzo. Posizione ottima a 5min a piedi da BART, in 20min si raggiunge il centro di San Francisco, in 30min si arriva in areoporto SFO. Letto comodissimo tra i migliori mai provati. La zona esterna e' tranquilla, tipica di una citta' americana (ovviamente da stare sempre attenti durante la notte). Per chi pensasse di soggiornare qui per visitare San Francisco con un ottimo rapporto qualita'/prezzo e' una ottima opzione.

Cons:

Tra i pochi difetti segnalo: mancanza di sale e olio in cucina, soffione della doccia poco potente, mancanza del doccino mobile (specialmente considerando non c’è bidet), wifi del residence non funzionante ma, dopo segnalazione, ci hanno fornito il wifi dell'hotel a fianco.

A comfortable stay in the center of Oakland
Pros:

A very comfortable place, huge room with a kitchen. Very clean and pleasant, I assume rooms were soundproof because it also felt incredibly quiet. Decent breakfast - I don’t expect much from hotels in this regard - but better than usual and coffee wasn’t bad.

Cons:

Everything was excellent.

Great spot in Oakland in a central location.
Pros:

Very clean and spacious. Staff was very kind.

Cons:

The wait time for valet (return the vehicle the next day) was really long but the poor guy was by himself and so many people were waiting for their vehicles all at the same time.

寬敞舒適設備佳
Pros:

房間寬敞舒適，有廚房、冰箱，可以煮些熱食，相當方便。自助早餐頗為豐盛，尤其鬆餅最受歡迎，若有些青菜更佳。2F休憩空間很不錯，有印表機可自行列印文件；地下洗衣房洗衣機和烘衣機各四台，也滿方便的。

Cons:

飯店本身設備各項均佳，但附近沒有大賣場，無法買些生鮮食品，且似乎位於危險地區，讓人有些緊張害怕，希望能提升附近安全性；客廳、房間的光線不足，反而廁所最明亮....

Pros:

The Appartament was functional and clean and the location was perfect!

Cons:

The breakfast closed at 9 super sharp and even the coffee was gone … it’s a shame: a bit more flexibility and longer hours would give a huge benefit.
