Don’t do it unless you enjoy paper thin walls with noisy guests late into the night and stale cigarette smell. Park at your own risk. Bed was comfortable for one night, but couldn’t get out of there fast enough.

This is one of the worst properties in the world. No heat. Bath room tubs don’t drain , you will be in a pond. Dirty shower curtain . Always touching your body. Hairs on the bed. Pillows stink as they were not changed. Outside the window was rooftop garbage. Ac pipe vegetation growth. Doors have 2 inch space. The rooms snicks of food cooking . The hallway and property sinks of marijuana. I was buzzed with headaches before reaching my room. Totally disgusting . I ran off the next day. Honestly speaking you rather sleep on streets than this place. Don’t know how this lame property exist. The picture of hotel are all lies you see on Expedia. Shame on Expedia for having these properties listed. No expedia help on the first night. When I called . And twice the Expedia staff Huns up the phone. Don’t go . Never go. Sleep on street bench but not here .

No cleaning, no towels, hallways smell like cigarette smoke, very noisy because of train track in front of hotel (also during the night), dogs are allowed in hotel and my neighbours dog kept barking all night, not a lot of choice in breakfast and bird nests at the parking lot (inside area) , car full of bird poop. Something they know but don't do anything about. Filters in room very dirty..

It's affordable, close to Amtrak and Jack London Square. The room was a bit shabby but okay. However, the walls are thin, and one night the couple next door left the TV playing all night and periodically argued in loud voices, which made it almost impossible to sleep, and it didn't feel safe to complain and potentially get in the middle of their domestic battle. The hallway also reeked of marijuana smoke, but fortunately not cigarettes. The area has some nice pubs and restaurants, and it's a short BART ride to Berkeley or San Francisco, or you can catch a ferry. The Inn is probably half the cost of the nearby Hyatt, or less, but you get what you pay for.

Property needs an upgrade. Surprisingly comfortable mattress, but that’s the only complimentary thing I have to say. The housekeeping staff we encountered was lovely, but the front desk staff were extremely rude. For “just a place to sleep” this property is adequate, but very disappointing compared to other properties nearby. I guess it’s priced that way, so you get what you pay for.

One of the worst motels I've ever stayed at. The room looked like it was under construction. Walls were only half painted the sink was stained as well as the bathroom countertop was heavily used and awful. The refrigerator had a puddle of ice water at the bottom of it. The furniture was old and look like it should be thrown out. The only thing decent was the bed

Property is run down, water in bathroom sink trickled out, shower barely got warm even after letting it run for over fifteen minutes. Saving grace of the hotel is its prime location- very walkable, close to restaurants and downtown. If you want peace and quiet for say, sleeping, look somewhere else. Walls are thin and the property is right next to an active railroad track (this is not the hotel's fault).
