The Location Is More Than Convenient
You will find the motel location very convenient. It's near the Grand Lake Theater if you like outings of this sort. The bus line is right outside and Piedmont Ave, where plenty is happening, is just a couple of blocks away. There are plenty of places to eat as well. The motel is basically located at the base of Piedmont, which is an upscale metropolis encircled by Oakland.
positive:
Enough To Keep You Plugged In
The bathroom is nice and there are plenty of electrical outlets to keep your devices charged. The flat-screen TV has a sharp picture and a variety of stations.
positive:
Surprisingly Quiet For The Area
The motel is actually on a busy street, but it's surprisingly quiet once you're inside. It's great for a good night's sleep.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Not Enough For What You Pay
You get the bare basics and nothing more. There is no coffee machine, mini-fridge, microwave, hairdryer, or iron. You may also experience a stale smell in the room too.
negative:
Towels Are Like Sand Paper
Towels are rough and too small. You can hardly dry your hands with them never mind your entire body! You may find them to be soiled too.
negative:
Change Of Name Doesn't Mean Better
This motel changed names not too long ago; however, it doesn't necessarily mean it's better. It's not a better version than before as many of the things that would improve the facility are not provided like better amenities and better shower pressure.
