Boutique Hotels in Oakland

Very clean, super comfy bed, breakfast is nice and staff is nice

I stayed in the hotel on the night of March 22nd, 2025. I had been out with friends to dinner in Oakland that evening. Sometime around midnight, I attempted to gain entrance to the hotel using my key card to open the front door. My key card failed to open the door despite several attempts. I alerted a security guard who was near the entrance inside the hotel. After complying with his request to try the key card several times, he asked me what my name was and my room number. After giving him this information, he went to check their IT system to confirm my identity. When he returned, he told me he could not find me on their register. I assured him that I was who I was, repeating my room number and showing him my key card, which had the hotel's name and room number on its card-holder. It was a glass door and my key card holder and room number on it were clearly visible. He returned to the reception area again and he when he returned, he was accompanied by a second security guard. They both informed me that they could not find my name on the register, eventually telling me openly that I wasn't actually registered. After several minutes of loud protestations from me while still outside on the street, they eventually went again to check the register and then returned saying that they had now found my name on it. They also told me that there was no manager available for me to make a complaint at that time. When I reported the matter to the duty manager at reception in the morning, she told me that she had no knowledge of the incident. I gave her all the details I could remember and asked her to contact me by email with an update after she had investigated. Over one week later, I have had no contact regarding this from the hotel. As a result of this treatment, I would not recommend anyone, let alone a sole traveller like me, for a stay at this hotel.

The location is perfect, 2 min to the BART station, and 10 min walk to UCB campus. And after (recent?) rennovation, it is also super clean and cozy now (my last stay was back to 2018). Breakfast is not included, but everything can be easily ordered through ZINO. Not cheap but taste and service were great.

Breakfast adequate ......

Hotel and the history of it was great. Really enjoyed it.

Nice neighborhood (the hotel was on clean street), great location, friendly staff, clean facilities. I would stay here again if I come back to San Francisco :)!

Magical place. Perfect for a little get-away. Breakfast in bed was super!

The rooms were lovely and one had a great view of the harbour.

Great location, spacious room, nice amenities. Great service at check in and check out. Fitness facility is spacious and well equipped.
