The room was clean and really nice, staff was friendly, and location was central. The only complaint I have is that additional fee for pet was not mentioned online. All we were told is that it’s a pet friendly hotel. So paying $40 additional per night came as a surprise.

This is a cool little hotel in the heart of Oakland. Great atmosphere, and an old re-purposed building with a nice open deck on the top floor. there is no elevator so if you need one this isn't the place for you. Staff were friendly, accommodations were fine, beds are not spectacular and the traffic noise outside was a little loud. But hey, it's Oakland!

Cute and clean boutique hotel. Friendly and helpful staff. Good size rooms (King-Hallway). Some beautiful original architectural features, like the doors. Appreciate the nice loft and patio spaces. Parking is a bit different, as there's a padlock, but the staff can help and it's not difficult. I appreciate the lot is super close and the fence looks well protected. Book your parking spot in advance; it's a smaller lot. There's no elevator, but it's a quick flight of stairs. Would absolutely stay here again and recommend to most.

My sister and I had a fantastic stay! The hotel is in a very convenient location; it's unique and has a lot of personality. The room was clean and well-appointed, and the beds were extremely comfortable. The staff were so helpful and friendly, especially Mere, Jenny, and a third kind woman whose name I didn't catch, who helped us with our luggage. The private parking lot across the street was very helpful. The only small bummer was that the shower did not have the best water pressure. Still, we would definitely stay here again. *Note* this hotel has no elevator, so don't bring super heavy luggage unless you're really strong.

The room I was in had no windows, was super hot when I got inside and had hair around the sink, shower, on the bed and desk. It was not cleaned well, or at all in some places. There was also smears of something on the mirror and other hair stuck to it.
