Hotels Near St. Margaret Mary Catholic Church in Oakland

The pros: Inexpensive Decent location Room has decent amenities The cons: Nonchalant service Smells like **** Limited breakfast options Lots of yelling Near the train No HVAC As mentioned above, this inn is a great location, with a great price, and you can tell they're trying. They had a fridge, a microwave, and a decently-sized TV in the room. More than I expected for $80~ish a night. The receptionists were what'd you expect at this price point, and the staff were mostly positive. Their breakfast options were also fairly limited, but if you were really hungry, it would do the job. While the HVAC system was broken, they did offer an extra portable heater that did the job. Unfortunately some things that they can't control really make the inn far worse than it tries to be. The behavior of their guests, their proximity to the train tracks, and the people yelling outside the hotel really affect the way guests experience the inn. Other guests were smoking **** that could be smelled all the way down the hall and in other rooms, and they were piling up so much trash they just started to leave it by their doors in the hallway. This is in addition to the fact that they were yelling and screaming, and the doors did little to muffle the sound. The yelling continued through midnight and kept waking me up throughout the night. This yelling came both from guests in the hallway and from people walking on the streets. I could also see how the room had been worn down by prior guests, with dents in the lampshade, stains on the carpet, and even though I could tell the cleaning staff put effort in the bathroom (towel folded into swan, etc), the light was malfunctioning. Thankfully, it didn't bother me much, but for those who aren't used to ”roughing it,” this might not be the place for you.

I came here to meet my friend since we're in different hotels for the sales force event. My friend told me that Sonesta Hotel has a bar. First night was great until Gerrardo started talking to women from a different ethnicity how much he hates American women that we were garbage. I felt really angry. And when the 3 ladies across from me and my friend confront him he walked off... The other bartender Alice all I can say is amazing one of of kind person that's funny and can keep a crowd entertained. Second day same bartenders Alice and Gerardo. Let you tell you again was the same story but, instead of Garardo putting women down he started to talk down Chinese people while he was talking to a Japanese group telling them that Japan is number 1 that Chinese people are thieves that China steals Japanese people idea. I felt offended because I'm Chinese. And also that Gerardo smelled like so much alcohol that you could tell he's been drinking. I'm giving only a 5 star rating because of Alice I saw how she kept the bar going people enjoying themselves laughing so my friend and I joined the fun and joined the bar. She even apologized for her co-workers behavior and bought us a free drink. I told Alice dont apologized for someone elses behavior. ALICE You are amazing. This is the first time meeting a actual Tomgirl. Thank you for sharing your food with me. If Alice is the permanent bartender this would be amazing. She's knows how women feel and how they like to be treated.

I’m a local, but it’s so nice to getaway for a quick staycation and Hyatt Place Emeryville is perfect. It’s close to shopping, restaurants and the movies and the staff are delightful and accommodating.

I grew up in the Bay Area and travel back home often, and have stayed in many places in the Emeryville area but this will from now on be my go to hotel. The stuff from the moment I walked in the door was the most excellent customer service I have experienced in many years of traveling. The rooms were clean and breakfast was wonderful. The pool was clean and easy to access. Parking was plentiful. Excellent experience.

Breakfast is good. In order to see the Warriors' game live here, I like the shuttle bus service. Because of the law and order in Auckland, it is quite late to watch the game. It is just that the hotel can pick up and drop off to watch the game and call to wait a few minutes to get there. If a person comes to the game, recommend this hotel.

It was convenient on the airport side. The type of room was different from the reservation, but it changed as soon as I told it. The original room was convenient near the front desk, so I stayed without changing it, but I apologized for the drinks and snacks!

I came here because I was tired . I remembered being offered free breakfast but I was leaving before breakfast time . But thanks for the offer . It’s within walking distance to the bball arena and baseball park . And not too far from the airport . There are some other shops and restaurants around but I just stayed because I was tired . The bathtub was nice .

We spent 4 days in Oakhurst as a base to visit Yosemite, it will take you 30 minutes to the entrance of Yosemite park and an additional hour to the valley. The hotel is new, the fitness room is small but there is everything you need for a workout, pool is nice even we had to ask for pool towels every time we took the kids swimming. Breakfast is good, even if they limit the amount of food you can eat ( on some breakfast items it’s clearly stated ‘one per guest’). Rooms are nice, even if we could hear everything our neighbours were saying or watching on tv. My biggest problem with this hotel is the staff! They are the most unwelcoming hotel staff I have ever met. If you walked into reception they won’t even acknowledge you, when you ask for something it seems like you are bothering them. I just didn’t like their attitude, unprofessional and rude. We asked to get our room serviced everyday, they didn’t clean it until our last day ( even if I reminded them every day)and when they cleaned it, they only gave us some fresh towels ( it’s the only hotel in the world that won’t make Your bed if your pjs are in the bed!).

We chose this hotel because of the location for getting to the trolley, a Hop-on Hop-off tour stop, the local bus system, and the nearby BART system. For this it did not disappoint. The price is reasonable, and the hotel was very clean, and the staff was very friendly. From this, I digress. The noise level during the nights, was that a very loud level. All from external. Sirens, music, loud cars and trucks going by, garbage trucks in the middle of the night, quite a bit of yelling, and the like. Normal ear plugs did not help. If you stay here, you will need some heavy duty ear plugs. We get up earlier and the hotel lobby coffee was not ready ever before 7:00 a.m. there is coffee in the room, however if you need real creamer, you'll be out of luck until 7:00 approximately. Not a terrible review, just want people to be aware.

I booked in for 2 nights here as a solo female traveller. I had confirmation emails etc. as proof that I had booked a single room - I arrived at the hostel around 6.20pm on a Friday to find I had been placed in a large mixed dorm. The guy on the front desk was polite but totally unhelpful apparently under instruction from his manager. I offered to take any of the female dorms but was told all were sold out. I could not take the bed offered by them in the large mixed dorm, and they offered no like for like alternative. I was told that if i cancelled my stay/didn't check in I would lose my full amount paid as it was outside the cancellation period - they didn't grasp that within the cancellation period I was getting the room I booked, so it wasn't a cancellation on my behalf and was instead them not supplying what was purchased. I wasted so much time here to be offered no help while going through ********** customer support - I eventually gave up at 9:30pm when my employer forked out for a bed in another hotel for me. ********** were meant to get a full refund for me, as they failed to uphold their part of the sale, but 2.5 weeks later I've had or heard nothing from the hostel. To pay for something which is totally unavailable, with no budge room and no option for a refund, is a total scam. Do not book here as a solo female traveller as you will not be respected or safe.
