Weā€™ve stayed here a couple times nowā€¦ itā€™s actually not that bad just for a place to sleep, and serves its purpose. Itā€™s a short walk to Chinatown, the ferry port to take into SF, and lots of dining choices for many budgets.

Double booked my room (or there was someone squatting there, don't know). Receptionist (nice guy) gave me keys and we went to open it but the bolt was locked and there was a guy and I'm assuming his family inside. I asked to cancel. Don't know if it simply was an honest mistake, but nonetheless we left and got another hotel (I'll admit 30 bucks more expensive) that was way better in Alameda (continental breakfast, gym, pool, nice interior). This place has to step up it's game (maybe one day they will).
