Bay Breeze Inn - Oakland

I was very weary about staying here after reading the reviews. Yes its in the industrial area and right next to freeway but it was comfortable and clean. It was Kind of scary that the front desk is protected by bulletproof glass and a non-talkative old lady helped me. While I was there I looked around and noticed they were doing some room remodelin […] g. Read more

The initial check in was slow and l couldn't understand the lady as she spoke. Also, my room was getting cleaned when l walked to look for it (too slow if you're suppose to leave at 11am the next morning). As l walked in an hour and a half later, the room wrecked of nasty cigarettes l had too leave my door open for hours. It would be nice to have a […] little shampoo/conditioner bottles, but l guess spending money on your hotel is too much. The hotel looks like it's in a decent area, but it's nothing like it shows. It's in the middle of the industrial area, it's scary. Overall, l wouldn't go there again. Read more

Drafty, noisy, awful neighborhood. Desk clerk tried to be helpful (carried my suitcase up the stairs to the second floor room) but we didn't communicate we'll and his frustration was obvious. I had to make a quick hotel choice in an unknown area because of airline delays. Slept little that night and wished I had spent $20 - 30 more for some comfort. […] PS No airport shuttle service Read more

This hotel has the basics down. But hospitality is not the basics. The guy at the counter is short on information and not forthcoming. The room was rough but clean. The remote and TV did not match The carpet had a large burn spot. The shower's hot water was cold and cold water was hot. Some of the guests appeared to be long-termers. The hotel is located […] in a somewhat rough looking part of Oakland, but I always felt safe there. Road construction in the area made it exceedingly hard to get to for a hotel that is rather close to the freeway. None of these things was enough to dissuade me from wanting to stay there. If you want to try it, I think you'll find that you're getting what you pay for. I never hang out in a hotel when I'm traveling. It's just a place to secure my belongings and to sleep in peace. If that sounds like you, you'll be fine here. Read more

My review is based in paying 45 bucks a night! The room was clean, the bathroom was good and clean. The only complaint I might have was parking was horrible and its in an industrial neighborhood. My husband and I didn't go in expecting much and were pleasantly surprised that it wasn't a stink hole. Although it looks like it night be from the outside. […] I would give this motel a solid 2 stars Read more

We booked this hotel becouse it was the cheapest. Once we drived from the bart station with taxi we started realize that we were not in a good neigbourghood. It was surrounded by industrial buildings and on the way there was a guy selling puppies on the road. The staff was really friendly and tried to convince us that it's a safe place but even the […] taxi driver told us that it wasn't the most safe neigbourhood. After a google investigation we found out there had been bedbugs some years ago, so we desided to change the hotel. It was pitty becouse the reseptionist was really frendly! Read more

Very bad customer service.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Better than expected. Clean beds, clean bathroom, old tube tv, no phone, shower was ok. had a little mix up with reservation ask for a two bed room but only a "one bed" was reserved. after a little haggling came to a semi-fair deal. Close to everything downtown Oakland has to offer! ALSO a lot less prostitutey than I imagined!!!!

I stay overnight for business. Probably wouldn't bring the family, but for a place to crash during the work week or for passing through, the price is right. It's gated in and safe.

I lamps, no working heater, it was all bad!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The website for Bay Breeze Inn evokes a dreamy, ocean front property....when you arrive at the Inn, you will think you are livng a nightmare! The property is old, run down, and rooms are most likely rented by the hour. A working girl was waiting for a ride just outside the office entrance. The room was small and dank, the bed had hair on the sheets. […] There were no amenities. We stayed to be close to the airport for a 4:30 a.m. flight; not worth it! If you are a female traveling alone, DO NOT STAY HERE. I was fearful the entire time. Read more

Not a safe location to drive thru. O felt like I was under to much survelaince

If you need a place near the airport to sleep for an hour or two and are on a budget, this is the place for you. Lock your door, don't leave.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Right by the freeway, so it's noisy. I was told to just dump trash over the fence since they had no trash cans and the dumpster had a pad lock on it. I had pay .25 cents for ice. Every room promises to have a microwave, iron, and ironing board. I didn't. And when I asked the clerk about it she said "as they come available." I've stayed in better hotels […] with even cheaper rates. This place sucks! Read more

Bad location, no ice, no coffee and nothing within walking distance. Will never stay there again. Also, no shuttle service.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very friendly front desk, and the room was fine. Right off the freeway, so very convenient, but not a desirable neighborhood. However, I did feel safe there, due to the fact that they locked the parking lot late at night.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

the woman behind the check in desk was unfriendly, rude, and a real curmudgeon. the room had no phone, no coffee maker, no soap, and had an odor that was masked by a sickeningly sweet smell. I had just an awful experience.

Good for the amount of money you will be paying. Room was pretty clean and facilities were OK, given the price.

Our room was surprisingly clean. The price was good, but the setting was very basic: no refrigerator, no coffee machine, no microwave, and no phone. Highway noise was a big problem, particularly at night. Location is bad too.

Bad

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This hotel was absolutely gross. You walk in and it felt like you were stepping on a carpet that has never been cleaned or vacuumed. I was afraid to walk on it. The walls were brown and moldy, floor has stains EVERYWHERE, bathroom was dirty and plugs were broken. The curtains were brown and felt gross. I would not recommend this hotel at all!

surprised I wasn't mugged

I felt the service was very good. I was able to check in early and that was a big plus in my book.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This is a 1950s hotel that looks it from the outside. The only thing that's been upgraded is the sign. My room had been remodeled with new sink, tub surround, drywall, etc. There were 2 small bars of soap, but otherwise no travel amenities. Hotel is in industrial type area, so no nearby services for travelers. It is also located right next to 880 freeway, […] so bring earplugs. Lots of security cameras outside, so it was safer than it appeared from the outside. It's family run, so front desk service depends on which family member is covering. Read more

No continental breakfast, saggy spring mattress, paper thin walls, no shampoo or soap, no coffee or tea maker, no alarm clock, no telephone...everything that might have been stolen was removed. Staff spoke very little English which made communication about a refund difficult. They did provide free wifi and 24 hr video surveillance.

Wat they show online is better then when u get there. Wasn't to bad of a stay but super sketchy. The outside could be a lot better maintained. No wonder y it was cheap. The beds r stiff,towels r old. And there is really no guest assistance. There is no privacy sign to put on ur door so they will come in if ur not there. And the neighborhood is industrial […] and super dirty and ghetto. So stay there at ur own risk... Read more

Cleanliness of room/hotel: Room was clean, but smelled very musty. Quality of service: Front desk people were very rude. Hotel amenities: Terrible. No shampoo/conditioner/lotion samples, no blow dryer. Asked for extra pillow & blanket and was told to put the heater on instead. Hotel location: Industrial location not close to anything.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Not that good. Order through its picture but not reflecting its truth.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I booked 2 rooms to begin with and then they called me saying that I was upgraded to a suite. NOT CLOSE TO BEING A SUITE. No phone in either areas. 1 bathroom for 5 people, no shampoo, very tiny rooms, wanted to sell me the ice, the owners of the hotel cooked their on site which filled our room with the smell of food early in the morning. NOT A GOOD […] FIRST IMPRESSION, AND DEFINATELY NOT WORTH THE PRICE WE PAID Read more

The hotel had graffiti, it was next to the freeway, it looked depressing and like a place for hookers and drug dealers to stay. the whole area is on one big junk yard. its all industrial next to stadium, no view, construction and drilling are the things that wake you up in the morning. horrible stay.

Stay away! Bad, bad, bad neighborhood, the hotel is almost on the highway so you won't have a good night of sleep. I will never stay there again. I was glad I made it through the night in this neighborhood.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The neighborhood was a little sketchy, especially since I arrived so late. The freeway exit was under construction so that was a pain. Room was clean, but building was a little bit sketchy. Front desk customer service was fine, nothing special, but not bad.

Affordable , will stay there again

Arrived at the bobwired enclosed property at 2 am. Absolutely awful experience. Cleanliness of room/hotel was atrocious. The first room had hair under the bedspread; I notified the manager, he apologized & issued keys to a 2nd room. This room was worse: not only was hair on both sides of the pillows, the door was kicked in and the frame was half on […] the hinges. I was furious & disgusted. I was then shown a 3rd room, just nasty hair under the sheets and pillows. . The owner then informed my that they had a new cleaning crew. Read more
